The payout gap

Why Shopify deposits can be hard to read

Shopify payouts rarely equal gross sales. Fees, refunds, chargebacks, discounts, and processor timing sit between the order and the bank deposit. When those pieces stay bundled, your bank feed looks right and your profit picture does not.

Shopify bookkeeping services separate payout activity, categorize store and processor records, and reconcile accounts so monthly reports reflect the real business.
