FAQs
Common questions about eBay bookkeeping and accounting for Canadian sellers.
Do I need to report eBay sales to CRA?
Yes. If you’re running a business on eBay, even part-time, all profits count as taxable income in Canada. Report them on your T1 (for sole proprietors) or T2 (corporation). Casual personal sales (like old items sold below cost) usually don’t need reporting, but proper bookkeeping for eBay sellers tracks everything and maximizes deductions for fees, shipping, and supplies.
What is the best accounting software for eBay sellers?
QuickBooks Online or Xero, combined with integrators like A2X, Link My Books, or ConnectBooks. These tools automatically pull data from eBay Managed Payments, categorize final value fees and refunds, and handle multi-currency sales. Analytics tools like Sellerboard are great for insights, but you need solid accounting for eBay sellers for accurate tax filing.
Is QuickBooks good for eBay sellers?
Yes. It is somehow the best software for eBay bookkeeping. QuickBooks connects seamlessly with eBay Managed Payments through apps like A2X or Link My Books. It manages multi-currency payouts, tracks inventory for resellers, and generates clean tax reports. Our bookkeeping for eBay sellers relies on it (or Xero) to fix mismatched payouts.
How much can you sell on eBay Canada before paying taxes?
There’s no minimum for income tax; all eBay profits are taxable right away. For GST/HST registration (and eBay starting to collect/remit it), the threshold is $30,000 in worldwide sales over four quarters. Sellers often mix these up; a dedicated eBay accountant sorts it out clearly.
How much does eBay take from a $100 sale?
Usually ~$14 (~13.6% percentage + $0.40 per order fee), plus any promoted listings or international fees. After refunds/chargebacks, your net might be $70–$80. Expert eBay accounting ensures full deductions.
How much does it charge for selling on eBay Canada?
Final value fees are ~13.6% + $0.30–$0.40 per-order on the total sale (price + shipping + tax). You get 250 free insertions/month. Rates vary by category; check your dashboard.
Does eBay report my sales to CRA?
Yes, eBay reports data to CRA for qualifying sellers (often higher-volume ones meeting transaction or sales thresholds). They may also request your tax ID. Always report your income fully, or find an expert firm offering bookkeeping for eBay sellers that keeps your records audit-ready.
How much does eBay bookkeeping cost?
Usually around $800–$1,000/month per entity. Many factors, like transaction volume and complexity, should be considered. Book a free call for exact pricing.
Do I need an eBay bookkeeper near me?
No. eBay accounting is completely remote. SAL Accounting is based in Toronto’s Financial District on Bay Street, but we support eBay sellers across Toronto and the US virtually.
