eBay to Wave: one summarized entry for each deposit
eBay pays you in batches. Each deposit mixes sales, fees, refunds, and taxes, so it rarely matches your Wave books on its own. An eBay payout covers sales, refunds, shipping labels, fees, tax, and adjustments. Taxomate imports the eBay managed payments payout and posts one summarized entry to Wave that matches the bank deposit. You skip the spreadsheet.
How to connect eBay to Wave
- 1
Connect eBay
Connect your eBay seller account. You approve access in eBay. Taxomate then fetches your managed payments payouts.
- 2
Connect Wave
Connect Wave. You approve access in Wave and select the business to use. Wave requires an active Wave Pro plan or Wave Advisors package for third-party API connections such as Taxomate.
- 3
Set your account mappings
Run Quick Setup to create default accounts and sales items in Wave, or pick ones 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.
- 4
Review an eBay payout
Open an eBay payout in Taxomate. It shows sales, refunds, shipping, fees, and tax grouped by category, with the payout total.
- 5
Post to Wave
Post the payout. Taxomate creates a summarized invoice in Wave as a draft, then approves it. A negative amount is marked as sent. Wave limits an invoice to 300 line items, so a large payout can post as more than one invoice. If posting fails, Taxomate deletes the invoices it created. You can also turn on auto-post.
- 6
Reconcile with your bank deposit
Compare the posted invoice to the bank deposit. Taxomate does not create the bank deposit in Wave.
What Taxomate posts to Wave
Taxomate groups each payout by category and posts the totals to the Wave accounts you map. The table lists the categories.
| Transaction type | Where it goes |
|---|---|
| Sales | The Wave account you map |

| Refunds | The Wave account you map |

| Payment processing fees | The Wave account you map |
| Disputes and chargebacks | The Wave account you map |
| Sales tax collected and remitted | The Wave account you map |
| Adjustments | The Wave account you map |
- Taxomate posts to Wave as invoices. It does not create journal entries or bank deposits in Wave.
- Each line on the invoice uses a Wave sales item, so each category needs a mapped account and sales item.
- Every mapping is yours to change.

Reconciliation playbook
eBay Wave payout reconciliation playbook
A useful eBay to Wave integration has to do more than move orders. It should turn payout activity into accounting entries that explain the bank deposit without manual cleanup.
Start from the payout
Import the eBay managed payments payout that actually lands in the bank, then summarize the related sales, fees, refunds, tax, and adjustments around that deposit.
Post cleanly to Wave
Review the proposed Wave entry before posting so the sales, fees, refunds, tax, and clearing accounts match the way you close the books.
Prove it before backfilling
Use one recent payout as the activation test. The workflow is working when the first successful post matches the payout and reconciles to the bank feed.
Activation checklist
- The eBay managed payments payout imports successfully.
- The Wave posting summary separates sales, fees, refunds, and tax.
- The posted total reconciles to the bank deposit before historical imports begin.

See where the money went

One summary per payout
Each summary breaks the payout down into sales, refunds and fees, and its total equals the deposit. You can review it before it posts.
