Starter Plan
Coverage counts what each App Store listing names. Every feature, checked off app by app, is in Shoplist.
See every featureVAT Guard groups your EU orders by destination country and adds up sales and VAT collected for each quarter. It compares the orders it can read with the €10,000 union threshold and flags countries where collected VAT sits below the standard rate. The CSV has one row per country, in your store's currency, and is not split by VAT rate. It reads every order in the quarter, including those older than 60 days.
Selling into the EU? EUVATScope scans your products, orders, and inventory data to calculate your VAT Readiness Score, flag when the EU's €10,000 distance-selling threshold or IOSS import-VAT rules apply to you, and show exactly which countries you're exposed to.
