GoogleEcommerce books break in the same six places
Generalist bookkeepers code a Shopify payout as one lump of income and move on. That's where margins, GST and cash go missing.
Payouts never match sales
Fees, refunds, chargebacks and reserves come out before the money lands, so the bank never agrees with Shopify.
Amazon settlements are a black box
One lump sum every fortnight, covering hundreds of orders, FBA fees, ads and returns.
Revenue is clear, margin isn't
You know what you sold. You don't know what you made on each product or channel.
Landed cost is missing
Freight, duty and FX sit in overheads, so products look more profitable than they are.
GST on imports is a guess
Deferred GST, import declarations and overseas suppliers make BAS messy.
Inventory and Xero disagree
Unleashed or Cin7 says one stock value, Xero says another.
Why your Shopify payout never matches your sales
A month of sales goes through several hands before it hits your bank. If those deductions aren't split out, your income, expenses and GST are all wrong.
- 1
Split every payout
A2X breaks each Shopify, Amazon and PayPal payout into sales, fees, refunds and GST.
- 2
Match it to the bank
Each payout clears against the exact deposit, including money still in transit.
- 3
Report it properly
Fees land as expenses, refunds reduce sales, and your BAS reflects what actually happened.

We set up and look after the connections, then review the numbers by hand every month.

A Sydney furniture brand that stopped checking its bookkeeper
Shopify, Unleashed and overseas suppliers. The founder had a bookkeeper but was still finding and fixing reconciliation errors himself.
"A bookkeeper should never be another thing the founder has to check."Pat Cemal, Co-founder, Equilo
- One inbox for every supplier bill, coded and pushed to Xero ready to pay.
- Shopify, Unleashed and Xero connected, so reconciliations match.
- Monthly BAS lodged with deferred GST on imports handled.
- A written client playbook, so instructions are given once.
The founders do your books. No account managers in between.
Equilo is run by its two co-founders. You deal with them directly, from the first call to every monthly close.
Patrick Cemal
Co-Founder and Managing PartnerRuns the finance function end to end. Eight years in EY's Business Consulting practice and Macquarie Group's Treasury and Investment Banking divisions before Equilo.
Jono Herman
Co-Founder and Client PrincipalLeads client relationships. Runs his own business too, so he knows what founders need from their numbers.
Half the price of a traditional firm, without cutting corners
- No account-manager layer. You deal with the people doing the work, so there's no one in the middle to pay for.
- Automation does the data entry. A2X, Dext and Pulsify capture and code your transactions, and we review them before they reach Xero.
- Fixed scope, fixed fee. No hourly billing and no surprise invoices at BAS time.
- Built for ecommerce. We already know Shopify, Amazon and A2X, so we're not learning on your time.

Your first monthly close
Reconciliations done every week, books closed monthly and BAS lodged on time. Then it just runs.
No lock-in contracts. You stay because it works, not because you're stuck.

Do you work with Shopify and Amazon sellers?
Yes, they're most of our ecommerce clients. We also work with eBay, Catch, Kogan, Etsy, TikTok Shop, WooCommerce and wholesale accounts, on their own or together.
Do I need A2X?
For most brands doing more than a few hundred orders a month, yes. A2X splits each payout into sales, fees and refunds so Xero matches your bank. We set it up and map it as part of onboarding. The A2X subscription itself is paid to A2X.
Can you handle GST on imported stock?
Yes. We record GST on imports from your import declarations, including the Deferred GST scheme, and include it in every BAS we lodge as a Registered BAS Agent.
Do you work with Unleashed or Cin7?
Yes. We link your inventory system to Xero and reconcile stock value and COGS every month, so the two agree.
What if my books are behind or messy?
Onboarding and clean-up are included, with no setup fee. We'll tell you upfront if a large backlog needs separate scoping.
Do you do tax returns?
No. We're bookkeepers and BAS agents. We keep your books accurate and lodge BAS, and we work alongside your accountant for tax returns and year-end.
How quickly will you get back to me?
Same day. You deal with the founders directly, and we reconcile your accounts every week, so questions get answered while they still matter.
Is there a lock-in contract?
No. It's a fixed monthly fee with no lock-in contract. You stay because it works.
Who will actually do my books?
Our co-founders, Patrick Cemal and Jono Herman. You deal with them directly, with no account managers in between.
How accurate is the calculator?
It uses the same pricing we quote from. We confirm the final fixed fee after a short call, and it usually lands inside the range shown.
