Amazon Seller Profit Tracker for Take-Home After Referral and FBA Fees
Seller Central shows a big sales number, then your bank shows a much smaller deposit two weeks later, and the difference disappears into referral and FBA fees. Earnly lays out every payout as gross, fees by type, and take-home, so you know your real margin, not your top line.

In short
An amazon seller profit tracker shows what Amazon actually deposits after its fee stack, not just your top-line sales. Amazon takes a referral fee of roughly 8-15% of each sale depending on category, as published, plus FBA fees for picking, packing, and storage, and pays out on a two-week cycle, so the number in Seller Central rarely matches what reaches your bank. Earnly breaks each payout into gross sales, referral fees, FBA fees, and take-home, with a fee breakdown that flags when your fee percentage creeps up. The payout calendar marks each biweekly disbursement so you know what should land and when, and the next-month forecast band, always labeled an estimate, helps you time inventory buys around real cash arrival. Figures come from your data and published fee schedules; always confirm against your settlement statements. Solo is $24 per month billed yearly for a one-person shop, and Creator at $39 is the most popular plan.
What changes
Three things you stop doing by hand
Know your margin, not your top line
Every payout splits into gross, referral fee, FBA fees, and take-home, so a strong sales week that nets thin margin stops surprising you at deposit time.
Catch fee creep early
The fee breakdown tracks your total Amazon fee percentage over time and flags when it rises, so a category change or storage charge does not eat months of margin quietly.
Time cash to the biweekly cycle
The payout calendar shows each expected two-week disbursement, so inventory orders and ad spend line up with money that has actually landed.
Who this fits
Amazon sellers, FBA or FBM, who are tired of reverse-engineering the gap between Seller Central sales and the biweekly bank deposit.

Questions people actually ask
How much do Amazon sellers make?
Average small and midsize seller sales run about $11,671 a month, roughly $140,000 a year, but that average is skewed by a small group of large sellers. The distribution matters more: 31% of sellers sell under $500 a month and 48% do $1,000 a month or less. At the roughly 21% average margin sellers report, typical profit is near $2,451 a month. We break the full data down in our guide to how much Amazon sellers make.
How do I check profit on Amazon Seller Central?
Seller Central cannot show true profit, because it does not know your cost of goods. It shows sales, fees, and disbursements in the Payments dashboard and Business Reports, but margin has to be calculated by combining those with your own landed cost per unit. Earnly does that combining for you, and puts Amazon next to every other platform you sell on. If the settlements also have to be posted into QuickBooks or Xero, Link My Books vs A2X pricing compares the two connectors Amazon sellers use most.
How often does Amazon pay sellers?
Professional sellers are disbursed roughly every 14 days and Individual sellers about every 7. Since the Delivery Date Based Reserve took effect in North America in March 2026, funds are held until 7 calendar days after an order is confirmed delivered, which stretches FBA order-to-bank time to roughly 14 to 27 days. See the full timing in our Amazon seller payout schedule.
What is a good profit margin for an Amazon seller?
Sellers cluster in the 10% to 20% band: 57% report margins above 10% and 28% report above 20%, while 13% are not profitable yet. Above 20% net is genuinely good on Amazon. The common mistake is counting only the referral fee, when the all-in take rate including fulfillment, storage, returns, and advertising often lands closer to 40% to 50% of the sale price. An Amazon FBA profit tracker that breaks out each fee type is how you find out which side of that line you are on.
Why is Amazon holding part of my payout?
Usually because of the account level reserve, a rolling hold Amazon keeps against returns, A-to-z claims and chargebacks. Established accounts in good standing commonly see about 3% to 7% of sales held, and accounts under 90 days old often 10% to 20%. It is still your money, released as older sales age out. Our guide to the Amazon account level reserve covers what moves it, and if you post settlements into QuickBooks or Xero, A2X vs Synder pricing and Webgility, A2X and Taxomate pricing compare the connectors at matched order volumes. Earnly shows the reserved amount and the deposit that actually reached your bank side by side.
