Link My Books' Per-Channel Pricing: What Multi-Channel Sellers Actually Pay

Link My Books now has a more transparent pricing calculator than it used to. That makes the real comparison easier. With the live calculator set to USD and 5 sales channels, 1,000 monthly orders costs $56, 5,000 costs $75, and 10,000 costs $115.

How Link My Books Pricing Scales

Link My Books charges more as you add channels:

  • 5 channels, 1,000 orders: Link My Books $56/month vs Taxomate $42/month
  • 5 channels, 5,000 orders: Link My Books $75/month vs Taxomate $58/month
  • 5 channels, 10,000 orders: Link My Books $115/month vs Taxomate $99/month

Link My Books is not outrageously expensive at those tiers. The bigger difference is that Taxomate's Multi plan keeps channel connections unlimited instead of making channel count part of the pricing math.

Historical Data: Free vs Paid Add-On

Historical data is still one of the biggest practical differences. In the live 5-channel calculator, Link My Books shows 18 months of historical data. Their FAQ says paid plans can go back up to 24 months depending on the plan, and extra history can be purchased if it is not included.

Historical Data by Link My Books Plan

  • Free trial: 90 days of history
  • Paid plans: Up to 24 months depending on tier
  • 5-channel calculator example: 18 months included
  • Extra history: Available as a paid add-on through support

That is workable, but it is still another thing to manage. Taxomate includes historical imports without tying them to channel count or a support quote.

Taxomate: Free Historical Imports

Taxomate includes free historical data imports with every plan. Import your past settlements at no extra cost, regardless of how many months you need or how many channels you use. No tiers, no add-ons, no surprise charges.

Wave Accounting: Supported by Taxomate, Not Link My Books

Link My Books only integrates with QuickBooks Online and Xero. If you use Wave—the popular free accounting software—Link My Books won't work for you at all.

Why Wave Matters

Wave is free accounting software used by thousands of small ecommerce sellers. It's a legitimate choice for businesses that don't need QuickBooks' premium features. But Link My Books' limited integration options force Wave users to either switch accounting software or find a different automation tool.

Taxomate's Accounting Integrations

  • QuickBooks Online: Full integration with journal entries
  • Xero: Automated transaction posting
  • Wave: Complete support for free accounting users

If you're happy with Wave, there's no reason to pay for QuickBooks just to use an accounting automation tool. Taxomate works with your existing setup.

Why Choose Taxomate Over Link My Books?

Link My Books is a credible alternative, especially for VAT-heavy sellers. Taxomate is the stronger fit if you want unlimited channel connections on Multi, free historical imports, and Wave support.
