Note: A2X pricing shown here uses the public A2X Multi plans: 1,000 combined orders with 2 sales channels, 5,000 with 4 channels, and 10,000 with 5 channels. Taxomate pricing shown is the Multi plan, which keeps channel connections unlimited.

A2X Multi vs Taxomate: The Monthly Price Math

Price is the reason sellers mention most often when they leave A2X. On A2X's public multi-channel page, each Multi plan has an order limit and a sales-channel limit. Taxomate's Multi plan has an order limit only.

  • 1,000 combined orders: A2X Multi $89/month for up to 2 channels. Taxomate $42/month. You save $47 a month.
  • 5,000 combined orders: A2X Multi $169/month for up to 4 channels. Taxomate $58/month. You save $111 a month.
  • 10,000 combined orders: A2X Multi $229/month for up to 5 channels. Taxomate $99/month. You save $130 a month.

At each of these tiers, Taxomate costs less than half of A2X Multi. If you add a sixth channel, your Taxomate price does not change.

One seller wrote in a Shopify App Store review (March 2024): "We were able to reduce our monthly costs by 60% after switching." They moved from a competitor's app. Your saving depends on your order volume and channel count.

How to Switch from A2X Without Double-Posting

The main risk when you switch is posting the same payout twice. Keep A2X connected until Taxomate posts your first payout correctly. Then use this order:

  1. Pick a cutover date. Find the last payout A2X posted to your books. Taxomate will post only payouts deposited after that date.
  2. Connect your sales channels and your accounting software. Leave Auto Sync off for now.
  3. Set your posting format. Match what your books expect from A2X (see the next section).
  4. Send one payout manually. Pick the first payout after your cutover date. Compare the entry with your bank deposit.
  5. Turn on Auto Sync. Set the auto-post start date to your cutover date. Then disconnect A2X.

Do not send payouts that A2X already posted. Taxomate imports your history for free, so you can review older payouts in Taxomate without posting them.

Every plan includes a free 1:1 onboarding call. We can check your cutover date and mappings with you.

Keep the Posting Format Your Books Expect

Your accountant and your reports expect entries in a certain shape. Taxomate lets you set that shape before the first post:

  • Line grouping: Group lines by SKU, by transaction type, or by order. Some tax settings limit these choices.
  • Xero status: Post invoices as Draft, Awaiting Approval, or Approved.
  • QuickBooks Online: Post journal entries or sales invoices.

Check these settings against a recent A2X entry before you send your first payout.

When A2X Is Still the Better Choice

A2X has a strong reputation with accountants. If your accounting firm runs all of its clients on A2X and will not support another tool, staying may be the simpler choice.

Taxomate is the better fit when you manage your own books, sell on several channels, or use Wave:

  • Unlimited channel connections on Multi: You do not need to watch a channel cap as you add channels.
  • Wave support: Taxomate connects to Wave. A2X does not.
  • Free historical imports: History is not tied to your plan level.
  • QuickBooks inventory sync: Taxomate has an inventory-sync path for QuickBooks users, in addition to settlement posting.
Why Choose Taxomate Over A2X?

A2X is a solid product. Taxomate is the better fit if you want to pay less than half the price for multi-channel posting, add channels without a cap, use Wave, and keep the posting format your books already use.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is Taxomate cheaper than A2X?

Yes for the public multi-channel plans. A2X Multi costs $89/month at 1,000 combined orders, $169 at 5,000, and $229 at 10,000, with a channel cap on each plan. Taxomate's Multi plan costs $42, $58, and $99 at those tiers, with unlimited channel connections.

How do I switch from A2X without posting payouts twice?

Pick a cutover date after the last payout A2X posted. Keep Auto Sync off, send the first payout after that date manually, and compare it with your bank deposit. Then turn on Auto Sync with that cutover date as the start date and disconnect A2X. Do not send payouts A2X already posted.

Can Taxomate post in the same format as A2X?

You can match the common settings. Taxomate groups lines by SKU, transaction type, or order. In Xero, invoices can post as Draft, Awaiting Approval, or Approved. In QuickBooks Online, you can post journal entries or sales invoices. Compare one entry with a recent A2X entry before you switch.

Why do sellers switch from A2X to Taxomate?

Price is the most common reason, especially for sellers on several channels who reach the A2X Multi channel cap. Other reasons are Wave support, free historical imports, and a setup that sellers can manage themselves.

Does Taxomate support Amazon FBA inventory like A2X?

Taxomate offers QuickBooks inventory-sync workflows for Amazon sellers. A2X focuses more narrowly on settlement accounting and COGS-style posting rather than full inventory syncing into QuickBooks.

Is Taxomate as accurate as A2X for reconciliation?

Both tools are built around settlement and payout reconciliation. During the trial, compare the imported payout against your bank deposit and accounting entry so the accuracy test is based on your own data.
