Best for online sellers who post settlements to Xero or QuickBooks
Link My Books imports payouts from Amazon, eBay, Shopify, Etsy and others, and posts them to Xero or QuickBooks Online with the right tax rules. But the price rises as your orders grow, extra channels cost $17 each on Premium, and some channels are limited to certain countries.
Who Link My Books is for
- Fits if you sell on several marketplaces and keep books in Xero
- Works for small shops that want unlimited users
Who Link My Books is not for
- Pricey if you grow: the price follows your rolling average of monthly orders
- Tight on Lite: 1 channel and 3 months of history
- Watch out: extra channels on Premium cost $17 each, per the vendor's help center
- Watch out: Walmart is US only, TikTok Shop is UK and US, and QuickBooks means QuickBooks Online

Keep it

It costs $240 a year.
What you could make
- Reports: an app builder makes this well.
What you could not
- Live feeds from your bank, which take an agreement with each bank or a service that has them.
- Data from Amazon's seller tools and years of sales estimates.
- Checkout, card payments and sales tax handled for you.
- Connections to other products, each kept working as those products change.
- Sharing with other people, which means accounts and invitations.
What this rests on. Link My Books’s listing: what it does, where it runs, what it plugs into and what it costs. It is a judgement about the kind of software this is. We have not built a replacement for it, and making your own means looking after it too. How we decide, and every tool’s verdict.
