Move off Spreadsheets Even Faster – Upload Expenses and Income via CSV file

Seller Ledger on July 25, 2026

Have you been tracking business expenses in a spreadsheet for a while? Does the leap to traditional accounting software feel like more work than it’s worth? Well, no more.

In our never-ending quest to save sellers time, we’ve added the ability to upload expenses (and income transactions, if you so desire) in bulk, using CSV formatted files. Seller Ledger lets you keep all of that hard work and gives you a leg up when you want to try automating your accounting and bookkeeping.

How to upload your expenses

Just go to the Expenses tab, and you will now see a tab that says “Expense Uploads”. This is also where you can find the ability to upload many mileage trips at once.

Just follow the formatting guidelines on the screen (or take a look at our sample CSV template) and load your transactions. Plus, as an added bonus, you can include category names in there which, if they are the same as the ones you have in Seller Ledger, will group and total up your expenses and ensure they show up in the correct line of your tax report.

For income transactions, just do the same thing from the Income tab.

Simplify cost of goods sold if you don’t track inventory

If you don’t track inventory, but do have a running list of your cost of goods sold purchases, just include the “category” column and make sure to label those transactions as “Cost of Goods Sold.” Then check out how much more accurate your numbers look, including seeing your overall gross profit.

Stay tuned for more improvements in this general area. And keep sending us your feedback!

Better Manage the Products You Sell

Seller Ledger on July 9, 2026

To better help you manage the products you sell, Seller Ledger has added a new view under the Inventory tab. In addition, for those of you who are not tracking inventory (i.e. using a “cash-based” approach) and writing off cost of goods sold directly, you’ll notice that the Inventory tab now has more useful features.

Finding your products

Clicking into the Inventory tab, you will see a new sub-tab called “Products”. For those of you already tracking inventory, it will show to the right of the other tabs.

For those of you writing off cost of goods directly, you’ll also have access to the new Products tab, just without the extra Inventory tabs:

Editing your products

Click into your products tab to a see a list of every product that you have either sold or loaded purchase/cost information for. We show you each product’s name, SKU, how much has been sold and on what channels.

You can sort by product name, by SKU, number sold or revenue.

If you have multiple copies of the same product that use slightly different names, now you can correct that. The same holds for cases where you are missing SKUs or using the same SKU for different items. Correcting those makes it possible to fully automate your cost of goods sold and see your profit per order.

Automate Your TCGplayer Accounting

Seller Ledger on July 5, 2026

Based on popular demand, we’ve just released an update to Seller Ledger to help automate your TCGplayer accounting.

Do you sell cards from top games like Magic: The Gathering, Pokémon, Yu-Gi-Oh!, One Piece and Disney Lorcana? Well, now there’s an easier way to track your sales and determine your profits. Using our updated Chrome browser extension, Seller Ledger will regularly import the key information you need to determine the profitability and taxes owed for your business, including:

Card and pack item prices
Shipping collected
Commissions
Transaction fees
Item fees
Payouts

Plus, if you track your inventory costs with unique SKUs, Seller Ledger will automatically tie those sales back to the item costs, reduce your inventory and update cost of goods sold.

Seller Ledger matches payouts to your bank deposits

Seller Ledger does something pretty powerful when we import your sales, fee and payout history from TCGplayer. We compare all imported transactions from TCGplayer to the payouts we receive and make sure the sum total of all of the transactions in the payout match the amount of each payout.

We even organize your transactions into two sections when you click into your TCGplayer account: “Not paid out” transactions and “Paid out” transactions. In fact, from the TCGplayer account summary view, you can click into any payout to see every single transaction that makes up that payout. This makes sure that your financial amounts from TCGplayer are accurate.

Lastly, if you choose to link your bank account to Seller Ledger, we will also automatically match the payouts that come from TCGplayer to the deposits when they show up in Seller Ledger. These are properly treated as transfers, so you avoid any risk of double counting.

How to automate your TCGplayer accounting

In order to link your TCGplayer account to Seller Ledger, you need only do the following:

1. You should use the Chrome browser when accessing Seller Ledger so that you can also make use of the second tool (below).

Once you are properly set up, Seller Ledger will regularly access your TCGplayer account and retrieve the order, shipping, commission, fee, and payout information.

Sales Tax Calculation API is Now Available

Seller Ledger on June 26, 2026

Seller Ledger recently announced the ability to help eCommerce sellers track and report on their sales tax obligations. To make that possible, we built out a full sales tax engine, complete with state and local jurisdiction-level breakdowns. Now we are making that functionality available to developers and potential partners through the release of a sales tax calculations endpoint in our API.

How to calculate sales tax

To accurately calculate the sales tax on an eCommerce order, you need to know a number of things:

The amount of each item within an order
Whether shipping was collected from the customer and whether it is taxable
The shipping address of the purchasing customer
The states where you have nexus (physical or economic)
The sourcing rules for a given order
Whether the specific item is subject to any special tax rules or exemptions

Fortunately, Seller Ledger makes all of that simple. We automatically track nexus for you based on your account. And we make it very easy to submit the necessary information to our API to get the right amount to collect. If you collect enough information to properly fulfill an order, you will have enough information to tell Seller Ledger what it needs to know.

Coming soon: Product taxability

As of the date of this post, we are still working on a comprehensive set of product taxability rules. Stay tuned for that release.

Get the full breakdown

Because we have a pretty extensive history in sales tax (our founders ran product and engineering for TaxJar,) we know that a single tax amount isn’t sufficient for all clients. So, our API returns not only the total amount of sales tax due on an order, but we also break it down by how much is owed to each jurisdiction, including:

State amount collected
County amount collected
City amount collected
Special district amount collected

To learn more about our new sales tax calculations endpoint, visit our API documentation.

Pricing

Pricing for sales tax calculations is the exact same as it is for Seller Ledger. We simply charge you based on the number of monthly transactions you have flow through our system. Plans start at $10 per month with a 30-day free trial.

Automate Accounting for Square Sellers

Seller Ledger on June 23, 2026

In our continued efforts to simply eCommerce accounting, we’re pleased to announce the ability to sync your Square account with Seller Ledger. This provides the biggest step to better automate accounting for Square sellers. This functionality is now in open “beta”, meaning anyone can try it.

As we did before with our Shopify integration, we allow Square sellers to bring in both online and point-of-sale transactions.

To link your Square account, simply click the “Add Channels, Banks and Accounts” button on your dashboard. Then, click the Square logo:

Log in to Square and, once you are returned to Seller Ledger, we will begin importing you transaction history. Doing so will allow us to bring in sales, returns, fees and even sales tax that you may have collected – all broken out in detail and summarized to help you with tax filing.

And as with any new functionality, we’d love to hear any constructive feedback you might have. Email us at [email protected].

Choose the Date to Start Importing Transactions

Seller Ledger on March 21, 2026

Since we launched, Seller Ledger has automatically imported up to 90 days of transaction history from connected marketplaces, eCommerce platforms, banks and credit cards. This was designed to give everyone a chance to really get to see how the software works for them, on real data, during the 30-day free trial.

However, a number of customers over the years have asked for the ability to choose a specific start date. This has been most prevalent at the beginning of tax years, as customers like to start “fresh” (often after switching from more expensive, more complex solutions:)

Setting your own start date

While Seller Ledger still imports 90 days automatically, it is now super simple to go in and change, on connected-account by connect-account basis, when you would like data to import from.

First, just click on the connected accounts whose import start date you’d like to change:

Next, click on the edit/pencil icon at the top of the account view:

You’ll see a new option to choose a start date. Just pick the start date you’d like:

Click “Save” and you’re all set.

If you had any transactions prior to the new date you’ve entered, they will be deleted from the system. If you don’t want those older transactions deleted, DO NOT set a more current date than you want transactions for.

Billing limitations still apply

If you are just starting a free trial, you won’t be able to enter a date from the start of the prior tax year (or longer.)

See your Walmart Profit per Order

Seller Ledger on February 25, 2026

As we have done with both eBay and Amazon, we also recently released the ability for Walmart customers to view the NET profit on each order.

Walmart profit per order

Click the “>>expand” link next to any order in your Walmart account. Under the category split totals that make up that order, you will see a new “related expenses” section that includes other fees and expenses that are tied to that order. This includes the Walmart commission charged for that order. In addition, if you purchase shipping labels through Walmart, we include that too.

Lastly, as mentioned when rolling out our Gross Profit report, if you track your inventory costs at the item level and use unique SKUs for each of your Walmart items, we will match those costs to the correct item. That, plus the other related expenses, helps you see the true NET profit for each order on Walmart.

If you are a Walmart seller who’d like this kind of visibility and automation in your accounting, give Seller Ledger a try. We offer a 30-day free trial, no credit card required.
