Questions, answered.

It connects to your shop and shows you your real profit — gross revenue minus every fee, ad cost, refund, VAT, and your material costs. Etsy is live today (Shopify is on the way), and on Etsy the fee breakdown goes the deepest. It also tracks inventory and lets you log other business expenses, so you have one place that shows what your shop is actually making.

Etsy today — and Shopify is built and on the way. If there's another platform you'd like to see, tell us.

Bring your Etsy shop in — the quickest way is to import your Etsy CSVs (Shop Manager → Settings → Options → Download Data): the Order Items CSV populates your orders and revenue, and your Monthly Statement CSV fills in the itemized fee breakdown — buyer fees, processing, ads, refunds, VAT. If you're one of our early direct-connect shops you can sync from Etsy automatically instead — ask us about it. Either way, the only other manual entry is expenses from outside your shop — supplies, packaging, market fees — which takes a few clicks a week.

No. We map your Etsy listings to products automatically. Material costs are optional — add them later if you want sharper per-product profit.

No. Free is free, no card.

Free right now — all features, no caps, no credit card. When we introduce pricing, the free tier will stay free for hobby shops, and sellers who join during beta get an extended free run on the paid features when pricing launches, with plenty of notice first.

We don't know yet — it depends on the feedback we get. We'll introduce pricing when the product is good enough that we feel right charging for it. Beta users get plenty of notice first.

Shopify support is built and in final testing. When it goes live, your Shopify orders land in the same dashboard as Etsy, with the same per-order profit view — one combined set of numbers. Etsy's fee breakdown goes the deepest once you upload your monthly Etsy statement, but both channels land in one dashboard so you can see your whole shop in one place.

Yes. Email hello@foliascore.com or DM us on Reddit/Twitter. The feedback button inside the app is faster — but any path works.

You authorise foliascore in Etsy's consent screen. foliascore only reads your orders, listings, and ad spend — it never writes anything back to your Etsy shop, and never touches your prices, listing content, inventory quantities, or orders. You can revoke access from inside your Etsy account at any time.

As far back as your CSVs go — import a full year of Order Items at once if you want your whole sales history, or just the months you need. For our direct-connect shops, the first sync covers your last 90 days and new orders sync in automatically. One honest caveat either way: Etsy's own CSV exports can lag your most recent orders by a little — if a very recent order isn't showing yet, re-download in a day or two and re-import.

You can do either — CSV import is the main way most sellers bring their shop in, and it's fully supported, not a stopgap. Etsy's API doesn't return fees at all, so a CSV import (Order Items + Monthly Statement) is actually how you get the fullest fee picture: buyer fees, processing, ads, refunds, and the four-way VAT split, all itemized. Direct Etsy sync is available to a limited number of shops right now — if you have it, it still won't show statement-only detail like the VAT split unless you also upload a statement CSV.

Always. CSV, PDF, and Google Sheets — anytime, no lock-in. There is also a "delete everything" button if you want to wipe your account.

No. Most beginner Etsy sellers don't have one, and we don't require it. You log non-Etsy expenses manually (it takes seconds), or upload a CSV statement if you have one.

Because most beginner Etsy sellers mix personal and business spending on one card. Importing 200 transactions to triage 195 personal ones is worse UX than typing the 5 business ones from memory. We default to fast manual entry plus recurring templates.

No — we hand your accountant clean numbers. Tax-ready P&L exports are on the roadmap for the paid tier. You take that to your accountant or paste into TurboTax / your local equivalent.

You don't need either to use foliascore. If you have an accountant who uses one, GL-mapped journal exports are on the future roadmap.

When you sell on Etsy, stock goes down. When you receive supplies, stock goes up. We default everything to "pooled" — only switch a material to "tracked" when it's expensive enough to be worth counting individually.

Yes — there's an opt-in "I make from materials" toggle that turns on the materials catalogue and recipes. We don't force this on first sync because most shops can get accurate profit numbers with a flat per-product cost.

Not yet. We use flat recipes plus pooled overhead, which covers the vast majority of makers. Nested BOM is on the long-term roadmap.
