Amazon's V2 settlement file has over 30 fee columns and my clients' Xero bank feeds only show one deposit amount. I used to spend 45 minutes per client decoding which fees reduced the payout. The tool splits each settlement into categorized lines so I import to the clearing account and reconcile against the bank deposit in minutes.

Which settlement report format should I use?
Use the Settlement Report V2 (Flat File). It contains the most detail and is required for proper fee breakdown. Available in Reports → Payments → Settlement Reports.
How often should I reconcile Amazon?
Amazon settles every 14 days (or more frequently for new sellers). Reconcile after each settlement hits your bank for the most accurate books.
The file is tab-separated, not CSV. Will it work?
Yes! We automatically detect tab-separated (TSV) files, which is Amazon's default format. Both .txt and .csv extensions are supported.

How People Use This
A client selling on Amazon UK and EU had a persistent $12-$15 variance every settlement. It turned out Amazon was applying VAT withholding on certain cross-border transactions that didn't appear as a separate line in Xero. The reconciliation breakdown now surfaces these withholdings so the clearing account actually balances.
Amazon settles every two weeks, but some orders from the last day of the period get bumped to the next settlement. My Xero sales invoices didn't match the deposit because of these stragglers. Now I reconcile settlement-by-settlement instead of order-by-order, and the timing gaps disappeared.
FBA reimbursements for lost inventory were getting mixed into regular sales in Xero, inflating revenue. The tool tags reimbursements as Other Income so they hit a separate account. One client discovered they'd been over-reporting sales by $3,200 over six months because of this.
I dreaded the tab-separated settlement files Amazon exports. They'd open garbled in Excel, columns would shift, and half the fee data was lost before I even got to Xero. Uploading the raw file directly into the tool skips all that — it reads the TSV correctly and outputs a clean Xero bank statement format.
