Your Shopify payout and your order totals don't always match. Most stores never notice.
PayoutPilot checks every payout against what your orders actually say you're owed — and flags the gap when a fee looks wrong, a refund wasn't subtracted, or an amount just never showed up.
Why this happens
Shopify's payout number and your store's order data come from two different places, and they drift — a manually edited order, a partial refund, a fee tier change, a currency conversion rounding. None of it throws an error. It just quietly doesn't add up.
"Unsynced orders are an existential threat to running an accurate set of books." — a merchant, in a public review of a reconciliation tool
What PayoutPilot does
1
Connects to your Shopify payouts and order data (read-only).
2
Matches every payout line against the orders it should correspond to.
3
Flags anything that doesn't reconcile — before it's buried three payout cycles deep.
