Easy Tech TutsHow to Add Amazon Income to QuickBooks Online Easily 2026
By Impran M N
Amazon seller payouts bundle sales, fees, and refunds into one deposit, which can get messy if entered incorrectly. This guide covers how to bring Amazon income into QuickBooks Online in a way that keeps everything properly categorized.
01Gather your Amazon settlement report
Download the settlement or payout report from Amazon Seller Central covering the deposit you're recording.
02Set up income and fee categories
Create or confirm accounts for Amazon sales income and Amazon fees so they can be tracked separately.
03Record the deposit with a breakdown
Enter the deposit in QuickBooks Online, splitting it into gross sales, fees, and any other line items from the settlement report.
04Reconcile against your bank feed
Match the recorded deposit to the actual bank transaction to confirm everything ties out.
Frequently asked questions
Can I connect Amazon directly to QuickBooks Online?
Some third-party apps offer a direct connection between Amazon and QuickBooks Online, though manual entry from settlement reports also works.
Why shouldn't I record just the net deposit as income?
Recording only the net amount hides your actual sales and fees, making it harder to see true profitability.
How often does Amazon pay out?
Amazon typically pays out on a set schedule, often every two weeks, though this can vary by account.
Do I need to track Amazon sales tax separately?
Since Amazon often collects and remits sales tax on your behalf in many states, it's worth tracking those amounts separately from your own income.
