LinkMyBooks Review

Worth it

Should I use LinkMyBooks?

Ecommerce accounting automation for Amazon, Shopify and eBay sellers - linkmybooks.com

· 1 week ago

Buy if you sell on Amazon, Shopify or eBay and run Xero or QuickBooks Online — reviewers rate it 4.8–4.9/5 and pricing starts around $21/month. Skip it if you don't use those ledgers, sell too few orders to justify the fee, or need a standalone accounting system.

Gotchas - check before you buy

Historical data beyond what your plan includes costs extra

Amazon settlement discrepancies are common enough to need dedicated troubleshooting docs
