Beta TikTok Shop is in beta

TikTok Shop to Xero integration

Taxomate imports each TikTok Shop payout and turns it into one summarized Xero entry for sales, refunds, shipping, fees and tax. The total matches the deposit from TikTok. TikTok Shop is in beta: you review each payout and send it to Xero yourself.

Each paid TikTok Shop statement becomes one payout, checked against the amount TikTok paid to your bank.

Map TikTok Shop sales, fees, refunds, shipping and tax to your own Xero accounts.

You send each payout to Xero yourself during the beta.

How the beta works

One TikTok Shop payout, one Xero entry

Taxomate starts with the payout TikTok sends to your bank, groups the activity behind it into a mapped summary, and lets you send that summary to Xero when you are ready.

  1. Source

    1

    TikTok Shop payout

    Sales, refunds, shipping, fees, tax, and funds held for returns are grouped around each paid TikTok statement.

  2. Xero

    2

    A mapped summary you send

    Check how each category maps to your accounts, then send the summarized entry to Xero yourself.

  3. Reconciliation

    The bank deposit

    The entry total is the payout total, so you can match it to the TikTok deposit in Xero.

Before you import history

Prove the TikTok Shop to Xero workflow with one real payout

Before you commit to any TikTok Shop Xero integration, use one representative TikTok Shop payout to confirm the import, accounting post, and bank reconciliation path.

  1. 1 Import one recent TikTok Shop payout instead of starting with months of history.
  2. 2 Review sales, fees, refunds, taxes, and deposit matching before posting to Xero.
  3. 3 Confirm the first successful post in Xero reconciles to the bank deposit.

Reconciliation playbook

TikTok Shop Xero payout reconciliation playbook

A useful TikTok Shop to Xero 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 TikTok Shop payout that actually lands in the bank, then summarize the related sales, fees, refunds, tax, and adjustments around that deposit.
Post cleanly to Xero
Review the proposed Xero 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 TikTok Shop payout imports successfully.
  • The Xero posting summary separates sales, fees, refunds, and tax.
  • The posted total reconciles to the bank deposit before historical imports begin.
