GMV hides weak margin
A campaign can show real sales and still leave too little profit after product cost, fees, coupons, and fulfillment assumptions.
A profit cockpit for TikTok Shop sellers
Sales came in. Profit leaked out. See what you actually kept.
ShopLedger turns campaign chaos into one clean answer before you scale: healthy, thin, or losing money after creators, coupons, samples, fees, shipping, returns, and ads.

The leak usually hides in ordinary campaign costs.
Creator math compounds
Higher commission can look harmless until it stacks with discounts, sample cost, returns, and ad spend on every unit sold.
Small tests need fast calls
Before another creator gets product or a coupon gets extended, sellers need a quick answer: keep testing, revise, or stop.
