Keep Amazon and SnelStart updated automatically.
Amazon sells for you on amazon.nl, amazon.de and further across the EU, each time with its own payout, its own currency and VAT that depends on the destination country. SnelStart is built for small businesses and freelancers: clear sales bookings, the customer as a relation and the right VAT code, without fuss. Schakel reads your Amazon settlements, converts foreign currency to euro and posts your sales as clean bookings in SnelStart, so you retype nothing.

-
Sales per marketplace as a booking
Your sales per Amazon marketplace become a clear sales booking in SnelStart, with the customer as a relation and the order number attached. amazon.nl and amazon.de stay recognisably apart.

Foreign currency into euro
If Amazon sells for you in pounds or zloty, Schakel converts it to euro at the rate from the payout, so your booking in SnelStart sits in one currency and your bank reconciles easily.

Common questions
Is the Amazon to SnelStart connector available?
Request this connector and get access. You let us know you want to link Amazon to SnelStart, and we make sure you can get started. You hear from us within 24 hours.
Can I book several Amazon marketplaces into one SnelStart administration?
Yes. amazon.nl, amazon.de and the other EU marketplaces run through the same seller account and land together in your SnelStart administration, each recognisable by marketplace so your revenue per country stays clear.
What happens with sales in a foreign currency?
Schakel converts pounds, zloty and other currencies to euro at the rate from the Amazon payout. Your booking in SnelStart then sits neatly in euro and matches your bank statement.
Are referral fees and FBA charges booked separately?
Yes. Referral fees and FBA charges land on their own ledger account instead of hidden in your revenue, so in SnelStart you see at a glance what Amazon withholds per marketplace.
Is this suitable as a freelancer or small business?
Yes. The connector keeps it simple, exactly what SnelStart is built for. You set your revenue account and VAT codes once and after that your Amazon sales flow in neatly by themselves.
Can you connect Amazon to SnelStart?
Yes. Schakel connects through the official APIs of Amazon and SnelStart, so you install nothing on your own server and nothing travels outside those two parties.
Which VAT rate do my sales get in SnelStart?
The rate is set per line: 21%, 9% or 0%. Sales to Belgium and other EU countries get the rate of the destination country, ready for your OSS return.
Are commission and fees booked separately in SnelStart?
Yes. Commission, shipping and other fee types each land on their own ledger account in SnelStart, rather than in one lump sum, so your margin stays readable.
