How the Shopify Seller Spreadsheet works:
My Seller Spreadsheets automate and simplify your monthly bookkeeping process. The Shopify Seller Spreadsheet imports in your Shopify sales & fees directly from your Shopify CSV files with a simple copy & paste.
What does the Shopify Seller Spreadsheet help me do?
- Quickly import Shopify data - Save time by quickly importing your Shopify sales each month, along with shipping received, sales tax collected, and refunds issued. The spreadsheet takes the data it needs for you, making less work for you.
- Walk you through entering your Shopify & PayPal fees - I'll show you exactly where to find all the fees you need to record, and show you how to interpret Shopify & PayPal reports so you know exactly what you're looking at.
- See all your sales in one place - You can also manually input your sales from all your other sources, such as Paypal, eBay, your own site, craft shows, etc.
- Input expense receipts - Expenses categories each have their own tab. As you make purchases or pay bills throughout the month, you can enter your expenses on a receipt-by-receipt basis in the appropriate category. This means you have a great backup of your expense totals at year-end to backup your tax numbers or give to your accountant.
- Make tax time so much easier - The expense categories roughly correlate to the expense categories on your business' tax return, making the process of doing your taxes a lot more streamlined and simplified for you or your accountant.
- Calculate net profit or loss each month - Know instantly whether your biz is making a profit or a loss throughout the year, enabling you to make smarter budgeting and goal-setting decisions.
- Deal with sales taxes - Compile all your sales tax collected and in-state sales in one place.
📌 Due to the nature of their reporting, I do not recommend you use this spreadsheet with the PayPal import add on. You could potentially double count your Shopify PayPal sales.

Why A Paper + Spark Spreadsheet?
Traditional bookkeeping software is made with accountants in mind. It’s expensive (and generally requires a monthly subscription payment), bulky, and oftentimes more complicated than a micro business like yours needs. It’s made for any and all types of small businesses, and not specific to YOUR business needs as a handmade biz owner or e-commerce seller. When your bookkeeping software is too complicated, too vague, and support or in-plain-English instruction is lacking, you tend to procrastinate on using it. Not updating your books consistently means severe stress once year end or tax deadlines hit.
Spreadsheets are powerful but simple tools. Partner a well-crafted spreadsheet file designed by an accountant intimately acquainted with e-commerce with clear, understandable instructions and you’ve got a formula for bookkeeping success. You get everything you need to feel empowered by your numbers, and nothing you don’t need.
Paper + Spark has been selling spreadsheets since 2015. We currently support thousands of makers and creative entrepreneurs in doing their books and understanding their money. Our spreadsheets have received countless rave reviews from shop owners. No other bookkeeping solution out there offers our level of step-by-step guidance & support. We also stay up-to-date on e-commerce reporting and platform changes.
With a Paper + Spark spreadsheet, you’ll pay a one-time fee for lifetime access to your files and support. We provide any future year files and updates for free, forever, via the account you create at checkout. You can always reach out in the Accounting Accountability Club, or via DM or email, and get answers to your spreadsheet & bookkeeping questions.
