Connect Amazon Seller Central to QuickBooks, import settlement payouts, and post reconciliation-ready sales, fees, refunds, taxes, reserves, and deposits into QuickBooks.
Import each Amazon settlement with its sales, fees, refunds, taxes and reserves.
Turn Amazon settlement deposits into QuickBooks entries that explain the bank feed.
Use your trial to prove one Amazon settlement imports, posts, and reconciles before backfilling history.
Amazon pays you in batches. Each deposit mixes sales, fees, refunds, and taxes, so it rarely matches your QuickBooks books on its own. An Amazon settlement report can hold more than 100 transaction types. Taxomate groups them into categories such as sales, fees, refunds, and taxes. Taxomate imports the Amazon settlement deposit and posts one summarized entry to QuickBooks that matches the bank deposit. You skip the spreadsheet.

Connect your Amazon seller account. You sign in to Seller Central and approve access. Taxomate then starts importing your settlement reports.
Connect QuickBooks Online. You sign in with Intuit and approve access to your company file.
Run Quick Setup to create default income, expense, and cost of goods accounts in QuickBooks, or pick accounts you already have. Then check the account for each category. You can change any mapping later. Taxomate does not post until the required mappings are set.
Open an Amazon settlement in Taxomate. It shows the sales, fees, refunds, and tax totals grouped by category, and the settlement total that lands in your bank. You can group the lines by transaction type, SKU, or order.
Post the settlement. Taxomate creates one summarized entry in QuickBooks as a journal entry or an invoice, based on your posting setting. You can also turn on auto-post so new settlements post after the deposit date.
Match the posted entry to the bank deposit in QuickBooks. The posted total is the settlement total, so it lines up with the deposit. If you turned on auto deposit, Taxomate also records the deposit to your bank account.
Taxomate groups each settlement by category and posts them to the QuickBooks accounts you map. The table lists the categories and where each one goes.
| Transaction type | Where it goes |
|---|---|
| Sales (product price) | Income account |
| Shipping income | Income account |
| Refunds | Income account, as a reduction of sales |
| Commissions and selling fees | Expense account |
| Fulfillment and warehousing fees (FBA) | Expense account |
| Advertising | Expense account |
| Tax collected | Liability account |
| Tax remitted by Amazon (marketplace facilitator tax) | Asset account |
| Reimbursements for lost or damaged inventory | Income account |
| Reserved balance | Asset or liability account |
| Payable to Amazon | Clearing account |

Short answers on how a payout-based workflow handles Amazon deposits in QuickBooks.
Start with the Amazon settlement deposit, import the related sales, fees, refunds, taxes, and adjustments, then review the summarized QuickBooks entry before posting.
Yes, if the workflow uses the payout as the control total and posts a summarized entry that can be matched against the bank deposit in QuickBooks.
Use one recent Amazon settlement deposit as the activation test. The workflow is ready to scale when the first import, first successful post, and bank reconciliation all line up.
First-post proof
Before you backfill Amazon history, use one representative settlement payout to confirm the import, QuickBooks post, and bank deposit match.
Reconciliation playbook
The goal is settlement-level accounting, not order-level detail. The entry in QuickBooks explains the Amazon deposit.
Use the Amazon settlement payout as the source of truth, including sales, fees, refunds, tax, reserves, reimbursements, and adjustments.
Check the summarized QuickBooks post before sending it so Amazon settlement activity lands in the right revenue, fee, tax, and clearing accounts.
The first successful QuickBooks post should match the Amazon settlement deposit before older periods are imported.
