Trusted by thousands of Amazon sellers & Accountants

Link My Books automates the entire Amazon bookkeeping process, freeing up your time and ensuring you pay the correct amount of VAT.

How does the free VAT Audit work?

Step 1:
Start a free trial of Link My Books

You can start a free 14-day trial with us without any credit card information or hassles. Obviously, we hope you like what you see and stick around but if not, that’s no worries.

Step 2:
Connect up Amazon & Xero/QuickBooks

Don’t worry, we have read-only access to your Amazon account and we won't post anything to your bookkeeping platform unless you decide to use Link My Books to automate your Amazon accounting.

Step 3:
We process your data & generate your VAT audit

Your free trial includes a 3-month historical data import but if you find you have overpaid VAT it might be worth going back 12 or 24 months on a paid plan.

Step 4:
Compare your audit findings

Check your bookkeeping software to see if your figures line up with ours. We can work with you and your accountant to ensure your figures are accurate and help you reclaim any overpaid VAT from HMRC.
