Why LedgerPort
Where LedgerPort pulls ahead
We don’t just sync data — we ensure every transaction is accurate, reconciled, and audit-ready from the moment it lands in QuickBooks.
Transaction-level sync, not journal summaries
A2X posts summarized journal entries to QuickBooks — which keeps your ledger clean but makes it impossible to trace a specific order, return, or fee back to its source. LedgerPort syncs every transaction individually so your accountant can drill down to any line item without leaving QuickBooks.
Real-time, not batch
A2X runs a daily settlement batch. If a refund processes at 11 PM, it appears in QuickBooks the next day at the earliest — often later. LedgerPort syncs within 30 seconds of the event, so your books reflect what’s actually happening right now.
Built for accounting firms managing multiple clients
A2X has basic accountant functionality. LedgerPort ships a dedicated CPA portal with bulk client management, per-client audit logs, staff access controls, and wholesale pricing that scales with the size of your firm — not just individual stores.
Switching is easy
Ready to move? It takes less time than you think.
Moving from A2X takes about 15 minutes. Connect your Shopify store and QuickBooks account, configure your account mapping, and LedgerPort backfills your historical data automatically. No CSV exports, no manual imports.
