Keep Etsy and Moneybird updated automatically.
Etsy is the marketplace for handmade, vintage and creative products, where you sell to buyers all over the world and get paid through Etsy Payments in different currencies. Etsy withholds listing, transaction and payment fees and pays out the rest. For your accounting you want that back as clean sales invoices in euro, with the right VAT rate per country. Schakel reads your Etsy sales and books them as sales invoices in Moneybird, with every Etsy fee type apart and sales converted to euro.
What travels across the link
Everything this connector moves between Etsy and Moneybird, and how often.
-
Sales as sales invoices in euro
Every Etsy order becomes a sales invoice in Moneybird with a line per item and the order number as reference. If you sell in dollars or pounds, the amount is converted to euro at the rate of the sale date, so your accounting stays right in one currency.
-
Listing, transaction and payment fees apart
Etsy withholds several fees per sale: listing fees, transaction fees and payment processing. Schakel books each to its own ledger account instead of netting them off your revenue, so as a maker you really see what a sale earns.
-
VAT per country, inside and outside the EU
If you sell within the EU, the line gets the destination country rate and arrives ready for your OSS return. Sales outside the EU are booked as export at 0%, so your return is right without you working out each country by hand.
-
Payout and returns
The payout from Etsy Payments is registered as a payment, so your bank balance in Moneybird reconciles. A refund to a buyer becomes a credit note for the amount actually refunded.

Sales outside the EU are booked as export at 0%, and EU sales get the destination country rate, ready for your OSS return in Moneybird.
