Anyone using ClearProfit for profit tracking? Thinking of switching from spreadsheets

Shopify Apps

Hey everyone :waving_hand:

I’ve been running my store for about a year now and I’m still tracking profits manually in Google Sheets. It’s getting really messy — between Shopify fees, payment gateway charges, ad spend across Meta and Google, shipping costs… I feel like I’m always missing something and my “profit” numbers never feel accurate.

I stumbled on this tool called ClearProfit that seems to pull everything together automatically — Shopify orders, ad costs, transaction fees, COGS, shipping. They also have a bunch of free calculators for things like ROAS, break-even CPA, profit margins etc.

Has anyone here tried it? I’m currently paying for Triple Whale but honestly it feels overkill (and expensive) for what I need. I just want to know my real net profit per order without spending 30 minutes a day in spreadsheets.

A few things I’m curious about:

  • How accurate is the profit tracking compared to doing it manually?

  • Is it worth it for a store doing ~$15-20k/month?

  • How does it compare to TrueProfit or BeProfit?

Would love to hear from anyone who’s used it. Thanks! :folded_hands:

Yeah spreadsheets break fast once you have multiple cost layers. The main thing that goes wrong is getting ad spend to line up with actual order level profit on a daily basis.

The formula that actually matters: Gross Sales minus Discounts minus Refunds minus COGS (per variant, not averaged) minus Ad Spend minus Transaction Fees minus Recurring Expenses equals Net Profit.

One thing to watch for with any tracking tool: how it handles cost changes. If your product cost changes and the tool uses today’s cost for old orders, your historical P&L is wrong. You want something that timestamps costs at the time of each order so changing a supplier price today doesn’t rewrite what you made last month.

Whatever tool you pick, make sure it pulls your TOTAL ad spend from Google and Meta, not just attributed spend. Some tools only count spend they can match to orders, which massively understates your real ad costs.
