How it works

Step 1

Download your reports

Grab the Weekly Orders Report, or the Show Report right after you go offline. Add the Ledger export for payouts.

Step 2

Add what things cost

Use Whatnot's Cost of Goods field, upload a simple cost file, or type one lot cost for a case you broke on stream.

Step 3

See profit and taxes

Profit per show, best and worst shows, a quarterly tax set-aside, and a year-end PDF for your accountant.

Built for how live selling really works

Profit per show

Item sales minus commission, processing, seller-paid shipping and giveaways, then minus cost of goods.

Breaks and lots

One case, thirty spots: a single lot cost is spread across the show's sales so the number is honest.

Exact fees

Weekly Orders Reports carry Whatnot's exact fees per order. Show Reports are estimated until that week's report lands, and we swap in the exact numbers automatically.

Tax set-aside

Pick a percentage and see what to set aside for each IRS estimated-tax period, with due dates.

Year-end packet

CSV and PDF with a Schedule C style summary, monthly detail, 1099-K reconciliation and profit by show.

Private by default

Version 1 reads your CSV files inside your browser. Nothing is sent to our servers.

FAQ

Do I have to give you my Whatnot password?

No. You download your reports from Whatnot yourself and upload the CSV files. We never ask for your Whatnot login and we do not scrape your account.

Which Whatnot reports do I upload?

The Weekly Orders Report (Financials, Statements) has exact fees for every order. The Show Report (Shipments, Open Sidebar, Show Actions, Export Show Report) works right after a show, with fees estimated until that week's report is available. The Ledger export (Finances, Ledger, Export data) adds payouts to your bank.

How do you handle breaks, mystery boxes and lots?

Enter one lot cost for the show, or put it in the cost file. We spread it across that show's sales by price, so each show carries its share of what the case or box cost.

Why is Whatnot's own earnings number different from my profit?

Whatnot's earnings are sales minus its fees and seller-paid shipping. It cannot know what your inventory cost, so it cannot show profit. We subtract cost of goods to get there.

Is the tax set-aside tax advice?

No. It is a planning estimate based on the percentage you choose. The year-end summary is organized the way IRS Schedule C asks for it, so your tax professional can work from it quickly.

Where is my data stored?

In version 1, in your own browser only. Clearing your browser data or using another device starts fresh. Optional accounts with cloud backup are planned.

Do you support eBay Live or TikTok Shop?

Whatnot comes first. eBay Live and TikTok Shop imports are on the roadmap.

Are you part of Whatnot?

No. ProfitPerShow is an independent tool built for Whatnot sellers and is not affiliated with Whatnot.
