Running an online store on Lazada means managing complex transactions — platform fees, delivery charges, refunds, and promotional deductions — all flowing through the same payout summary. When line items are missed or misclassified, your revenue picture becomes distorted. The solution is a clean, automated way to capture every line correctly, every week.
Here’s how to track fees and refunds without missing lines, powered by ccMonet.
In e-commerce, returns are inevitable — but messy books don’t have to be. Whether it’s Lazada, Shopee, or Shopify, refunds and reversals can easily blur revenue lines if they aren’t handled correctly. The result? Overstated income, confused cost tracking, and profit margins that don’t quite add up. The good news is that automation can keep your books as clean as your fulfilment process is fast.
Here’s how to keep returns clear and controlled, powered by ccMonet.
Most sellers wait until platforms issue payout adjustments to record refunds — by then, data has already gone stale.
With ccMonet, refunds and returns are logged automatically as soon as they appear in your platform reports. AI reads and categorises them by:
That means your income and cost of goods sold (COGS) always reflect reality, not outdated estimates.
Returns and discounts often show up together in payout summaries — but they tell different stories.
ccMonet’s AI Bookkeeping distinguishes them automatically:
By tagging each correctly, you avoid inflating your promotional costs or underreporting net revenue.
The hardest part of handling returns is matching them to the original sale, especially across multiple platforms.
ccMonet’s AI Reconciliation connects refund entries to their exact order IDs, ensuring:
Every refund is tracked to its source, so your reports stay consistent and traceable.
If refunded items are restocked, their costs should flow back into inventory — not disappear.
ccMonet automatically reverses the COGS portion tied to the return, keeping your inventory valuation accurate and your margins clean.
That’s how small corrections stay transparent — not lost in the books.
Clean data means actionable insights. With AI Insights, you can see:
This clarity helps SMEs optimise pricing, packaging, and product quality — not just accounting.
Refunds and returns are part of running a business — but messy books don’t have to be. When every reversal is tracked, matched, and classified automatically, your financials stay as sharp as your operations.
With ccMonet, sellers can manage returns calmly, knowing every refund flows cleanly through their books — no double counting, no missing lines, no end-of-month scramble.

When SMEs sell across multiple platforms — Lazada, Shopee, their own website, or offline — keeping financial data clean becomes a serious challenge. It’s easy to double count income when the same order or payout appears in more than one report. Over time, those small duplications can distort profit and tax calculations.
Here’s how businesses can keep multi-platform sales clean and accurate, and how ccMonet makes that process automatic and audit-ready.
Every platform has its own report format, but your bank deposits are the single source of truth.
ccMonet’s AI Bank Reconciliation connects directly to your business bank account and automatically matches payouts from each channel — Shopee, Lazada, Shopify, or Stripe — to their source reports.
If the same transaction appears twice (for example, when both Shopify and Stripe record the same sale), ccMonet flags it before it enters your books. This prevents duplicate recognition of revenue.
To prevent mix-ups, every platform should have its own ledger.
ccMonet’s AI Bookkeeping separates data automatically:
By tagging every transaction to its origin, ccMonet ensures clean comparisons and prevents overlapping entries when marketplaces sync to your store’s backend.
Platforms often release payout summaries that include refunds or adjustments from previous weeks.
When those reports are uploaded into ccMonet, AI matches them line by line with your bank transactions and previous invoices. Any mismatch or overlap (such as a refund being counted twice) is flagged immediately.
That means only confirmed, cleared payouts flow into your revenue.
Double counting can also happen when sellers record both the gross sales and the net payout.
ccMonet automatically splits these figures:
This keeps your P&L transparent — showing the real cost of selling on each platform without inflating total sales.
With clean reconciliation, AI Insights in ccMonet provides a true snapshot of multi-channel performance:
This lets SMEs adjust marketing and pricing strategies early — not after month-end cleanup.
The secret to avoiding double counting isn’t more spreadsheets — it’s structured automation.
By treating each platform as its own data stream and reconciling everything back to the bank, SMEs can trust every number they see.
With ccMonet, multi-platform sellers get an AI-powered bookkeeping flow that keeps sales clean, reconciled, and ready for growth.

Each Lazada payout file contains hundreds of small line items — commissions, shipping fees, seller vouchers, refunds, and bonuses.
Instead of manually extracting them, upload the payout CSV directly into ccMonet.
AI automatically reads every entry, categorises it, and syncs totals to your books.
No lines skipped, no formulas broken — just a full, structured record ready for reconciliation.
Lazada transfers net payouts after all adjustments, which makes it easy to lose sight of what the total includes.
ccMonet’s AI Bank Reconciliation connects your bank feed and automatically matches deposits to Lazada payout reports.
If any payout amount doesn’t match what’s reflected in your bank — for example, due to withheld refunds or delayed adjustments — ccMonet flags it instantly for review.
The most common accounting issue for Lazada sellers is lumping everything under “platform fees.”
With ccMonet, every deduction line is categorised properly:
This separation ensures your P&L reflects true performance, not just lump-sum payouts.
Refunds often overlap across reporting periods or payout batches, making it hard to ensure all were accounted for.
ccMonet’s AI Review Layer identifies refund entries not matched to specific orders or flagged twice, alerting you before the numbers distort your monthly sales.
Once the data is clean, AI Insights gives you clarity that spreadsheets can’t:
That makes it easy to see which discounts actually convert — and which quietly cut into your margins.
Tracking every Lazada fee and refund manually is a losing game — but automation makes it a calm, repeatable habit.
With ccMonet, Lazada sellers can reconcile payouts, fees, and refunds line by line automatically, keeping their books accurate and their profits visible.
