Ties to the cent
Every payout is checked against the transactions inside it. If something doesn't add up, it's held and explained instead of guessed.
Ledger Badger · Shopify app
Find out why your deposit never matches.
Ledger Badger takes every Shopify Payments payout apart and explains it to the cent: sales, tax, shipping, discounts, refunds, fees, chargebacks, reserves and gift cards. Then it hands you a monthly close package for your accountant.
Coming soon to the Shopify App Store
Read only. It never changes your store and never reads customer names, emails or addresses.
Why it exists
Shopify pays you what's left over.
A payout is several days of sales minus card fees, refunds, chargebacks and reserves, and part of what customers paid was sales tax that belongs to the state. That's why the number in your bank never matches your sales report. Ledger Badger shows every step.
Collected in sales and tax$168.99
Card processing fees-$5.20
Chargeback and chargeback fee-$99.80
Deposited to your bank$63.99
Monthly close package
A PDF and spreadsheets with sales tax by state, gift card activity and money still on its way to your bank.
Plain English
Written for store owners, not accountants. Your accountant still gets the summary entry they need.
Questions
Good to know
Does it change anything in my store or my books?
No. Ledger Badger only reads payout and order amounts. It doesn't edit your store, and this version doesn't post anything to accounting software.
What data does it read?
Shopify Payments payouts and the money side of the orders inside them: amounts, tax, shipping, discounts and gift cards. Never customer names, emails, addresses or phone numbers. Details are in the privacy policy.
Is this tax or accounting advice?
No. Ledger Badger organizes your Shopify data. Have your accountant review how it's booked.
