What it is
Bookkeep automates accounting tasks for ecommerce and retail businesses, including daily journal entries, revenue recognition, sales tax, and payout reconciliation. It creates accrual-based entries mapped to a customer’s accounting structure and tracks order fulfillment so revenue is recognized when earned rather than when payment arrives. Sales data from channels such as Shopify, Amazon, PayPal, and Square can be consolidated into daily entries. Listed integrations include Toast, Stripe, QuickBooks, Xero, NetSuite, Sage Intacct, and Zoho Books. Managed U.S. sales tax filing is available to Shopify and Square POS merchants who enroll. Its payout-splitting service distributes deposits among bank accounts by store, franchise, or fulfillment location. Lite starts at $19 per month; the product also offers a 14-day trial, which excludes posting historical journal entries. Those entries cost $0.35 each. Access is available through web and API. Lite support is by email with a one-business-day response time; other plans include live chat with same-day response. Bookkeep says it was founded as a bookkeeping firm in Brooklyn in 2018 and launched its first app in December 2019.
