Frequently asked questions

How much does Shopify take per sale?

Shopify itself charges a monthly subscription; per-sale costs come from payment processing (a percentage plus a flat fee that varies by plan) and any third-party gateway surcharge. Apps and ads are usually the bigger per-order costs.

Why doesn't my Shopify payout match my sales?

Payouts batch orders by payment-capture date minus processing fees and refunds — so payouts straddle periods and never equal a day's revenue. A clearing account in your books fixes the reconciliation.

Is Shopify cheaper than Amazon?

Per-order platform fees are usually lower on Shopify, but you pay for your own traffic (ads). Marketplace fees buy demand; Shopify fees buy control. Many sellers run both.

How should I book Shopify sales?

Summarize payouts into journal entries with processing fees and refunds broken out, reconciled to bank deposits — the same settlement-level method used for Amazon. BeanHawk does this automatically.
