KNOW YOUR REAL PROFIT ON EVERY FLIP The sale price isn't your profit. After the marketplace fee, the shipping label, and what you paid for the item, plenty of "great flips" barely break even. FlipLedger shows the truth, and makes tracking it take seconds, not spreadsheets. RECORD A SALE IN SECONDS Swipe an item, tap Sold, enter the price. FlipLedger estimates the eBay, Poshmark, Mercari, Depop, Facebook, or Etsy fees for you (editable, always) and shows your net profit and ROI on the spot. A PIPELINE, NOT A PILE On hand → Listed → Sold. Filter by status, search your inventory, and see days held on every item so slow movers can't hide. WATCH THE BUSINESS, NOT JUST THE ITEMS • Profit hero: all-time profit at a glance • Six-month profit chart, free • Best flip, average days to sell • By-platform profit breakdown (Pro) EVERY MILE COUNTS AT TAX TIME Log sourcing runs and post-office trips; FlipLedger computes the standard-rate deduction as you go. Free users get 10 trips. Pro is unlimited. TAX SEASON, HANDLED Pro unlocks the full breakdown (revenue, COGS, mileage deduction, estimated taxable profit) and one-tap CSV export your bookkeeper will actually thank you for. YOUR DATA IS YOURS Everything stays on your device. No account, no tracking, no data collection, and free JSON backup/restore built in. FLIPLEDGER PRO • Unlimited items (20 free) and mileage trips (10 free) • Full tax-season breakdown • CSV export of items + mileage Yearly (best value) or monthly. From JCreates: simple, focused tools for people who make and sell. Profit and tax figures are planning estimates, not tax advice.
