eBay profit tracker that shows what you kept

What true profit includes

Sale price is a vanity number. True profit is what landed in your pocket after every cost that belonged to that sale.

Flippedit treats true profit as:

Sale price (including postage the buyer paid) minus eBay transaction fees, promoted listing costs, postage you covered, cost of goods, and refunds.

That is the figure on every completed sale. It is also the figure that rolls into the 31-day store total. On a sample window, revenue is $6,854.36 and expenses are $3,964.22. Profit is $2,890.14, which is 42% for that window. Those expenses are not a round guess. They are the fees, ads, shipping, and costs attached to the 119 items that sold.

If your current “profit tracker” is a column in Google Sheets that subtracts purchase price from sold price, you are missing the part that moves. eBay fees change by plan, category, and whether the sale was promoted. Postage is almost never the label price you typed at list time. Refunds arrive days later and quietly reverse a week you thought you won.

A tracker that does not include those lines is a sales log.

What Flippedit pulls vs what you add

Flippedit connects through eBay's official API. You authorise the connection in eBay's own login. Flippedit never stores your eBay password.

From eBay, Flippedit pulls:

• Completed sales and sale prices
• Transaction and final value fees as charged
• Promoted listing costs on the sale they belong to
• Refunds and cancellations
• Active listings, so stale stock is visible next to profit

You add:

• Cost of goods (what you paid, including splits from a bulk haul)
• Postage you covered, if it is not already on the sale
• Off-eBay sales you want in the same picture (Facebook Marketplace, a flea market day)

That split is the point. The fees you get wrong in a spreadsheet are the fees eBay already knows. The costs eBay cannot know are the ones only you can type once.

If the job you searched for is “eBay profit tracking software,” Flippedit is the product that replaces the weekly paste from Seller Hub reports.

A real item, not a rate card

Open a sold item in Flippedit and you get a breakdown card, not a monthly total. One listing from the product itself, a Dead Like Me DVD set:

Line	Amount
Revenue	$21.71
Transaction fees	-$2.88
Ad fee	-$4.34
Cost of goods	-$7.00
Shipping	$0.00
Profit	$7.49 (35%)
Days to sell	56

The ad fee is larger than the transaction fee. A spreadsheet that only knocks 13% off the sale would have called this a much fatter flip. The tracker that includes promoted listings tells you the truth: the sale was fine, the ad spend was the story.

That is who an eBay profit tracker is for. Not people who want a prettier sales graph. People who need to stop buying more of a “winner” that is actually paying eBay's ad product.

Who it is for

Flippedit is for sellers who source to resell and cannot answer “what did I keep last month?” without opening three tabs.

Typical fit:

• You have moved past a handful of sales and the sheet is starting to lie
• You run promoted listings and suspect ads are eating the margin
• You buy lots or op-shop hauls and need cost split across many SKUs
• You sell in Australia (or anywhere eBay takes a cut) and want fees as charged, not as a blog post described them last year
• You want the same numbers on your phone between sourcing stops

It is a weak fit if you list a few personal items a year and never care about margin. Seller Hub is enough for that. It is also a weak fit if you want Flippedit to write titles, answer messages, or print labels. That is still eBay's job. Read the Seller Hub comparison if that is the confusion.

What it is not

It is not a replacement for eBay. You still list and ship in Seller Hub.

It is not a generic accounting suite. There is no bank feed, no BAS lodgement, no payroll. There is a profit and loss built from the sales and costs you already track, which is what most eBay sellers actually need at EOFY. The tax-shaped page is eBay P&L for tax.

It is not a fee estimator. Estimators use a rate card. Flippedit uses the fee eBay charged on that order. When eBay changes plans (free selling under $25,000 of trailing sales in Australia, Pro Starter at 13.4% including GST, paid Pro plans with lower percentages), the tracker does not need a blog update. The next sync brings the new number.

Why category pages like this exist

People search “ebay profit tracker” because Seller Hub will not do this job, and a spreadsheet will only do it if you feed it perfectly. The software category is crowded with US tax tools, Chrome extensions that guess fees, and Etsy templates stretched over eBay columns.

Country-shaped pages exist too: Australia, USA, and UK. This URL stays the generic “what is an eBay profit tracker” page.

The test for any tracker in this category:

1. Does it use actual eBay fees per sale?
2. Can it attribute promoted listing cost to the sale?
3. Does a refund reverse the profit, or does the old number sit there looking healthy?
4. Can you see days to sell, so capital time is visible?
5. Does it still work on your phone while you are holding the next item?

Flippedit is built around those five. Store health, stale inventory, and goals live next to profit (sell-through and a revenue goal on the same store), but this page's job is the profit number. One job per URL.

How a week with Flippedit actually feels

Day one: you connect eBay. History imports. The dashboard is not empty.

Day one to two: you add cost of goods on the items that matter. Bulk tools exist if you bought a lot. Items missing cost data are flagged as “3 items need cost data.” That is deliberate. A profit figure without COGS is still a sales figure.

Every following morning: sales, fees, ads, and refunds from the last day are in the dashboard. You do not paste a Seller Hub CSV.

When you source: you open the app, see which categories and items actually kept money, and stop repeating the expensive ones.

That is the whole product promise for this URL. Not a dozen extra modules. A number you can trust on each sale, kept up to date.

Pricing, without the feature dump

Flippedit is $39 AUD a month, or $299 AUD a year, with every feature included.

Signup is a free 7-day trial with nothing charged until it ends. Cancel anytime and you keep access until the period ends. Payments already made are not refundable.

Start with the number you cannot see in Seller Hub

If you already know last month's true profit within a few dollars, you may not need this. If you know revenue and are guessing the rest, an eBay profit tracker is the gap. Flippedit fills it with the fees eBay charged, the ads you ran, the postage you paid, and the cost you typed once.

Start free 7-day trial, connect the store, and look at one sold item the way the Dead Like Me card looks. If that breakdown is clearer than your sheet, keep it. If it is not, cancel during the trial and you are not charged.
