See what you really made on eBay.

Drop in the report eBay already gives you. Takehome shows your real profit after every fee, ad, label and refund.

One real year on eBay

$36,812.61sold on eBay in a year
$9,243.65kept by eBay: fees, ads, labels, refunds
$5,167.02what the items and supplies cost
$22,401.94actually kept. That's your takehome.

From one real 2024 eBay seller report with 1,254 orders. Most item costs use Takehome's percentage estimate.

Your payout isn't your profit.

eBay pays out what's left after its fees. What your stock, packaging and refunds cost you never shows up in that number.

The usual way

A reseller spreadsheet

  • Type in every sale by hand
  • Fees, ads and refunds slip through
  • Formulas break when rows get copied
  • An afternoon every month to keep up
With Takehome

  • Reads the report eBay already gives you
  • Counts every fee, ad, label and refund
  • Flags the orders that lost money
  • No formulas, no typing in sales

See it work in 15 seconds.

From the raw eBay report to what you actually kept, using a real year of sales.

Questions sellers ask first.

Which eBay report do I need?

The Transaction report. In Seller Hub go to Payments, then Reports, and download it as a CSV file. It's free. The Orders report won't work because it has no fees in it.

Is my eBay data safe?

Yes. Takehome runs on your own computer and is blocked from connecting to the internet, so your report is never uploaded. There's no account, and you never enter your eBay password.

Do I need Excel or Google Sheets?

No. Takehome is not a spreadsheet template. It opens in your web browser and does the maths for you. No formulas, no setup.

What computer do I need?

A Windows or Mac computer with a current browser: Chrome, Edge, Firefox or Safari.

Does it work outside the US?

Takehome is tested with English-language eBay.com (US) reports. Other eBay sites may work, but they're not guaranteed yet.

Will it remember my item costs?

Yes. Your costs are saved in your browser on that computer, so they're there next time. You can also save them to a file as a backup.

Is there a subscription?

No. You pay once and the file is yours. Open one month or a whole year of sales, as often as you like.

Is this accounting or tax advice?

No. Takehome is a profit report to help you understand your selling. For tax questions, talk to an accountant.
