About
Finaloop integrates directly with TikTok Shop (TTS) to automatically sync your ecommerce data into your books.
This integration pulls your TikTok Shop sales, discounts, fees, promotions, fulfillment charges, and marketing expenses directly into Finaloop. We map them to the correct accounting line items and reconcile them against the payments you receive from TikTok.
The result: your books stay accurate, updated, and always aligned with TikTok Shop Seller Center.
1. How Finaloop’s TikTok Shop Integration Works
TikTok Shop has always been a black box when it comes to financial transparency since your payouts from TikTok Shop don’t typically reconcile back to your orders.
Finaloop gives you 100% visibility into all of these adjustments and fees so your financials are always fully reconciled back to your TikTok Shop statements.
Here is how it works:
- Automatic syncing: Finaloop pulls your TikTok Shop transactions and syncs every few hours for real visibility.
- Clean mapping: We map TikTok data into standard ecommerce accounting categories like sales, discounts, shipping, COGS, and fees.
- Accrual vs. cash basis: Whether you manage your books on an accrual or cash basis, Finaloop handles the timing differences between order activity and payout deposits.
- Reconciliation built-in: We match synced data with the actual TikTok Shop bank deposits, ensuring your books stay correct.

4. TikTok Shop Accounting
The way orders flow from TikTok Shop depends on whether you use cash basis or accrual basis accounting.
Accrual basis
On an accrual basis, sales are recognized when an order is fulfilled. Unpaid orders flow into Accounts Receivable (A/R) until the order is paid.
- Order created: Deferred revenue is recorded in your Balance Sheet until the order is fulfilled.
- Payment received from customer: We automatically mark the order as Paid (or Partially paid).
- Order fulfilled: Finaloop recognizes sales, shipping income, discounts, tips, and sales tax and reduces your deferred revenue upon fulfillment.
Cash basis
On a cash basis, sales are recognized when a payment is collected even if they aren’t fulfilled yet.
- Order created: Appears in your TikTok Shop Orders page but no P&L or Balance Sheet impact.
- Payment received from customer: Sales, discounts, shipping income, and taxes hit your P&L on the payment date.
- Order fulfilled: COGS are recorded and inventory is reduced once the order is fulfilled.
