Synder vs. A2X

A2X has been around a little while now.

Conceived by frustrated Amazon sellers, our years of skin in the game have gone into making the app as effective and efficient as possible - with great results, globally.

Relied upon by accounting firms that support many million dollar businesses, down to small and start-up solo-run businesses, we’ve earned our stripes.

And we want to share them with you.

Our subscription plans are straightforward, start small, and grow with you to handle millions of dollars of orders.

We at A2X know that investing in apps is a big deal for a small business’ bottom line, and we don’t want that to be the reason a business owner doesn’t have proper books from day one.

Our Mini subscription gives you capacity for 200 orders per month with three months of payout history included, and steady order increases with each plan.

This way, you’ll only ever pay for what you need, and our plans are the same across different platforms for easy switching and scaling.

We have also introduced A2X Multi to the mix, for sellers expanding across more than one ecommerce platform.

It’s all about walking our talk of seamless ecommerce accounting without the fuss.

Setting up A2X couldn’t be simpler.

With just a few simple steps, all guided by our onboarding system and numerous tutorials available over in the support center and on our blog, you’ll be up and running in minutes.

Plus, if you need to backdate records or fill the gaps, A2X can help.

That way, whether you started out with no apps or with a different provider, your records will be complete from the day you opened for business.

Check out a case study here on how one of our accounting partners achieved this for their client.

For each of your settlement payouts, A2X creates a neat journal summary of all the transactions associated with that payout, grouped together.

Going beyond simply showing order-related costs, A2X shows you the non-order related costs such as subscription fees, reimbursements and storage costs, too.

By dealing with batches of detailed transactions (based on your settlement payouts) rather than individual lines, A2X keeps the volume of data down, your software working at optimal speed and doesn’t use up a monthly order limit.

All while saving you time and handling the calculations for you.

This is handy as you grow, as you may want to add additional sales channels to your A2X account.

You can rest in the knowledge that A2X will scale seamlessly with you.

Understanding your business’ performance month-to-month can help you make informed decisions about its health and longevity.

But the settlement statements you receive from your sales channel(s) don’t always keep to this format. Sometimes they span months - and you have to pick up the slack.

Not with A2X.

When a settlement spans multiple months or periods, A2X will split it up into separate invoices or journals.

As experts in ecommerce accounting, we know first-hand the headache that comes with manually organizing transactional data, so this was an important inclusion in the app’s features and benefits.

Plus, the larger you grow, the more time you’ll save automating this important step.

The accrual method of accounting is hands-down the stronger approach for ecommerce.

But many ecommerce sellers won’t have heard of these terms before, much less be aware of which to use and how.

Accrual accounting typically takes a little more time and input, but yields much better results for ecommerce businesses.

Although if you have accounting software and A2X, all the heavy lifting is done for you!

You have a much better picture of the true health of your business, and can make long-term plans based on accurate numbers.

In fact, larger businesses are required by GAAP (Generally Accepted Accounting Principles) to operate via the accrual method, so that tells you something.

The support you are eligible for at Synder depends on your plan. At the time of writing, the more you pay, the better service you are entitled to.

This isn’t the case with A2X.

We are dedicated to premium customer service for every one of our customers, no matter how much you might spend each month.

We also have a wider ecommerce community that goes beyond our app.

For example, there’s the active Ecommerce Back-office Facebook Group which connects sellers and accountants across the globe for discussions, webinars, support, advice, and networking.

We welcome anyone working in the industry to join, no matter their background or whether they use A2X. Click on the link above to check it out.

Any ecommerce software can provide a database of useful contacts. But we at A2X go a step further.

We join up with accounting partners and ecommerce specialists across the world to provide sellers with the best connections unique to their needs and industry.

Accountants are niching down, and sometimes that makes the right fit for your business tricky to find.

Our ecommerce accountant directory allows users to search for their perfect partner firm using numerous filters and profile pages.
