What each side expects
Amazon and Gekko do not describe the world the same way. This is what has to line up.
Amazon
Amazon thinks in orders per marketplace, with an ASIN or SKU per line and its own order number. The shipping deadline is hard, and the country sold into decides which VAT rate belongs to which line.
Gekko
An accounting package wants to know, per line, which ledger account and VAT rate apply, and wants the customer on file as a relation.

Common questions
Can you connect Amazon to Gekko?
Yes. Schakel connects through the official APIs of Amazon and Gekko, so you install nothing on your own server and nothing travels outside those two parties.
Which VAT rate do my sales get in Gekko?
The rate is set per line: 21%, 9% or 0%. Sales to Belgium and other EU countries get the rate of the destination country, ready for your OSS return.
Are commission and fees booked separately in Gekko?
Yes. Commission, shipping and other fee types each land on their own ledger account in Gekko, rather than in one lump sum, so your margin stays readable.
Do I still have to log into Amazon once the connector runs?
No. Once it runs, everything you now look up in the Amazon seller account arrives in Gekko by itself. You only open Amazon when you want to check something yourself.
What does connecting Amazon and Gekko cost?
You start free and only pay once the connector is really running. After that the same tiers apply as for any other connector, based on how much runs through it each month.
How often does Amazon sync with Gekko?
That depends on your tier: hourly on the free tier up to real time on the unlimited tier. You can always start a sync yourself as well.
What happens to a return or refund in Gekko?
A return becomes a credit invoice in Gekko for the amount actually refunded, not for the whole order, so nothing needs correcting afterwards.
Does the connector also pick up Amazon returns and cancellations?
Yes. Besides new orders, Schakel also sees returns and cancellations on Amazon, so Gekko does not lag behind what actually sold.
