Managing your accounting data

How to connect your site to third-party accounting services and export your sales data to Excel.

To manage your accounting data, you can connect your site to third-party accounting services using finance extensions, or export your raw sales data to manage in Excel. This guide explains both options.

Find your 1099-k form

The 1099-K form summarizes your sales activity and is issued by your payment processor.

Connect finance extensions

You can get help with your accounting, send invoices to customers, create financial reports, and more by connecting a finance extension. While we work with third-party services to ensure Squarespace Extensions work properly, extensions fall outside our scope of support. We can help with connecting or disconnecting your extensions. For all other questions, contact the extensions provider directly.

Export your sales data

If you use Squarespace Payments as your payment solution, or a third-party like Stripe or PayPal, you can export and save your sales data to an Excel file. This file works with other common accounting services. You can access sales data from January 2018 onwards.

It's not possible to export sales data from Square at this time.

To export your sales data:

  1. Open the Accounting panel.
  2. Choose a date range.
  3. Click Download.

These are the specific date ranges:

  • Last week - 12 AM Sunday to 11:59 PM Saturday
  • Last month - 12 AM on the first to 11:59 PM on the last day of the month
  • Last 90 days - 12 AM 90 days ago (including the request date) to the moment of the request
  • Year to date - 12 AM on January 1 to the moment of the request

The accounting export timestamps are in UTC, and may be different than the timestamps that display in the Orders panel.
