We started using EP Accountancy for our payroll processing over 10 years ago now and during that time we’ve had fantastic service from Emma and Lauren. They are knowledgeable and professional as well as friendly and approachable. They’ve proven themselves to be a valuable addition to our business and I would recommend them to anyone needing an extra hand.
Big enough to know our stuff. Small enough to know you.

E-commerceWhy Your Sales Never Match Your Bank
A marketplace does not pay you your sales. It pays you what is left once its fees, your advertising, postage and refunds have been taken out, often in one lump covering dozens of orders.
Pick a platform and a month’s sales to see how quickly the two figures drift apart. Every line in between needs recording properly for your profit and VAT to be right.
Illustrative example only. Real fees vary by platform, category, plan and how you fulfil orders.
Amazon payout
Example month| Sales on Amazon | £10,000 |
| Referral and selling fees | -£1,500 |
| FBA fulfilment fees | -£1,200 |
| Advertising | -£800 |
| Refunds | -£500 |
| Storage charges | -£100 |
| What lands in your bank | £5,900 |
£4,100 sits between your sales report and your bank statement. We make sure every pound of it is recorded in the right place.
Selling Online? Your Accountant Should Understand How Your Business Works
Amazon, Shopify and eBay all pay you differently, deduct different fees and report VAT in different ways.
Add refunds, stock, advertising, international sales and the software that connects it all, and a general approach to the books soon stops working. We understand how marketplace payouts are built, how to reconcile them back to your orders and how to show the true profit of each channel.
