We looked at both A2X and LinkMyBooks. I originally trialled A2X and eventually gave up on it. After we launched our 4th Amazon account we had to find a solution for the ever increasing admin burden so we looked at LinkMyBooks, and I was so glad that we did. The setup of Linkmybooks was super easy especially with the help of the wizard for the UK Xero companies.

Awesome app makes your Amazon accounting so easy. We used to use A2X but this is better and half the price!! Also, support is super responsive and the app was developed by a very experienced Amazon seller. If in doubt just try it saves hours of time. Handles EEC and UK VAT easily as well and works in almost all Amazon markets.

This is the app I was waiting for! I spent HOURS trying to use another solution (A2X) to import and reconcile our US, Canada and UK amazon sales to Xero. After printing out pages of settlement statements, xero bills and invoices I just couldn't even make sense of A2X and what they were doing. And, I was picking up the task after my accountant had spent days working on it.

I came across LinkMyBooks whilst trying to find out how to afix a problem with my A2X settlements. In retropsect I’m so glad I had that problem since discovered a much less costly and much more refined service in LinkMyBooks. I’m now much more confident in the accuracy of my postings and it’s actually saved me money!

Brilliant service and at a great price. If you are considering A2X then stop, and go with Link my books. Saved us 10+ hours per month of manual spreadsheet work.

I had previously registered an account with A2X before finding LinkMyBooks. I hadn’t got too involved in the setup of A2X before exploring LinkMyBooks, so after speaking with Dan on support at LinkMyBooks and reviewing the functionality differences beteween the two I decided on LinkMyBook. It is much easier to use, support is fantastic.

Can not recommend using LinkMyBooks enough. If you are PAN EU FBA then you need this software. I used to use A2X but that didn't handle PAN EU effectively. The support is the best, excellent detailed response's every time I have contacted them.

I stumbled across this app just as I was about to sign up for A2X and I'm so glad I did. It's amazingly simple to set up, and it does exactly what it is supposed to do. We regularly have to assign VAT treatment to new products and the import function has sped this process up so much. I have gone from utterly hating dealing with the Amazon sales to smiling inanely as I click a few buttons and send them across to Xero.

I made the switch from A2X because I didn't like the fact that I had to pay for 2 subscriptions for 2 marketplaces. The LMB team where fantastic, they made the switch so easy and were very friendly. The software is better too. And all at a fraction of the cost I was paying before.

Previously with A2X however we found the mapping was incorrect for the entire of 2019. Caused us plenty of issues, which is where I came across LINKMYBOOKS. Immediately the advice I received from Daniel was much more helpful and explained where things had gone wrong. After lots of un-reconciling and re-importing of invoices we are now back on track with our Amazon/Xero Accounts. We also discussed various situations and will be going PAN EU in the new year. We've already been advised to let them know when this will happen and they'll help us optimise the mappings to reflect these changes. Brilliant.

I was a user of A2X and switched - primarily because of price. I have found that services is just as good if not better! It is less complicated to setup and customer has been very responsive. Importing financial information from Amazon has never been easier!
