Retail and Ecommerce Business Accounting Outsourcing Services Company - BI-Outsource

Retail and e-commerce are accelerating at an unprecedented rate. Global ecommerce sales are estimated to exceed $8 trillion by 2026. With diminishing margins, increased customer expectations, and an explosion of multi-channel sales, retailers are under pressure to be lean while expanding.

Managing books, inventory, and vendor payments across many platforms, including Amazon, Shopify, and offline POS systems, may quickly consume critical time. BI-Outsource handles your retail and online accounts, allowing you to focus on pricing, fulfillment, and customer satisfaction.

Accounting for retail stores and online sellers

Retail and e-commerce businesses sell across stores, websites and marketplaces, each with its own fees, returns and settlement timing. Without regular reconciliation, margins that look healthy in sales reports disappear in the bank.

We keep books for retailers, D2C brands and marketplace sellers in the US, and show true margin by channel and product.

What we handle

  • Marketplace settlement reconciliation: orders, fees, returns, ads and payouts
  • Payment gateway and cash-on-delivery reconciliation
  • Inventory valuation across warehouses, stores and third-party fulfilment
  • Contribution margin by channel, category and SKU, after fees, shipping and returns
  • Returns, refunds and damaged stock tracked and written off correctly
  • sales tax, payroll tax and federal and state income tax compliance on sales across locations and channels
  • Cash flow planning for stock purchases ahead of peak seasons

How we work with retailers

  1. We connect your store, website and marketplace reports to QuickBooks Online or Xero.
  2. Settlements are reconciled to orders every week, so missing payouts are caught early.
  3. Each month we close the books and report margin by channel and product.
  4. Before peak season we prepare a stock and cash plan with you.
