Link My Books Features

Cost Of Goods Sold Tracking

Link My Books automates the flow of inventory values into cost of goods sold (COGS) accounts only when items are sold. This ensures that month-end profit figures reflect reality, giving businesses a more accurate view of financial performance without manual journal entries or repeated corrections.

See How It Works
VAT Product Grouping

The platform applies correct tax rates by grouping products into standard, reduced, or zero-rated categories. By automating VAT treatment across channels, sellers avoid overpayment and gain confidence in compliance, while also protecting profit margins and ensuring accuracy in tax submissions and financial reporting.

See How It Works
Profit And Loss By Channel

Through detailed channel comparisons, users can evaluate revenue, expenses, and returns across platforms. This transparency helps pinpoint which channels contribute most to profitability, allowing businesses to allocate resources wisely and make growth decisions based on reliable, consolidated performance data instead of incomplete or skewed reports.

See How It Works
Payout Reconciliation

Sales, refunds, fees, and taxes are summarized into clean accounting entries for each payout. These summaries reconcile automatically with deposits in Xero or QuickBooks, reducing manual bookkeeping tasks and ensuring accounts balance correctly, improving both efficiency and accuracy during financial close processes for ecommerce businesses.

“Excellent software for small businesses”

Pros

I found this tool incredibly cost-effective and perfectly designed for what I needed. It's saved me tons of time and whenever I've reached out for help, the support team has been super friendly and always gets back to me quickly.

Cons

The few times I reached out to support were for manual eBay payouts that didn't sync before the scheduled one and they sorted it out quickly. Would be nice if we could customize how the reference field naming works though.

“Great Support with Powerful Features”

Pros

I'm really impressed with how great this system is, it pulls all the data we need from our Amazon accounts without any issues. When we ran into an admin problem on our end, the support team was absolutely fantastic and went above and beyond to help us out.

Cons

The initial cost feels pretty steep, though I guess the extra expense compared to competitors goes toward their support team which is honestly invaluable when you're dealing with Amazon's complexities.

The interface is incredibly simple and handles accounting across all Amazon marketplaces easily, regardless of currency. It also works great with eBay and other eCommerce platforms. Customer support is outstanding, they respond quickly and everyone I've dealt with has been genuinely helpful and friendly.

Cons

I honestly can't think of anything negative to say about this. We've been using it for over two years now and it's been fantastic the entire time.
