How it sells itself

MarginTruth breaks your month's margin down term by term, and every term names the Shopify field it came from and the time it was read. A term Shopify does not report is declared missing, never counted as zero, and the total holding it is marked incomplete. Every order is reconciled against the net amount Shopify publishes for it, and the gap is shown instead of absorbed.

Truence connects your Shopify store, ad platforms and bank, then checks every sale against the deposit that cleared. TrueRevenue reconciles payouts, fees and refunds per order. TrueMarketing measures channel return on cleared cash. TrueForecast projects cash arrival and your P&L. TrueBooks keeps your ledger, reconciliation and tax up to date. TrueAgent scores agent-placed orders and applies checkout policies.

Key points
  • Every term names the Shopify field it came from and when it was read
  • A missing unit cost is declared missing, with the product it concerns
  • The gap with Shopify's published net is shown, instead of absorbed
  • Match revenue with actual bank payouts automatically
  • Detect missing payouts, fees, refunds, and discrepancies
  • Reconcile Shopify, Stripe, Amazon, and bank data in one place
  • Get clear reports on settlement gaps and revenue leakage
