Ever looked at your Shopify sales and thought,
"Wait, where’s all that money?"
You're not alone.
Here’s what’s really happening 👇
🛒 Shopify Sales ≠What Hits Your Bank
Your sales dashboard shows gross revenue—the total before fees, returns, and chargebacks.
But when Shopify sends payouts, it subtracts:
✔️ Payment processing fees
✔️ Refunds
✔️ Shopify fees
✔️ Currency conversions
✔️ Chargebacks (ouch)
The result?
Your bank deposit is always lower than your “sales” number.
✅ As a bookkeeper for Shopify businesses, I help store owners connect the dots between their sales, fees, and payouts—so they actually know what they’re earning.
👉 If your dashboard and bank balance are telling two different stories, it might be time to look at your bookkeeping setup.
