PalmFlow vs Seller Ledger
Seller Ledger is a better accounting tool than PalmFlow — and we'll say that plainly. The question isn't which is the better ledger; it's whether you need a ledger or an operations platform. Often the answer is one, not both.
Bottom line: Seller Ledger is a genuinely better accounting tool — real double-entry books, deep tax prep, and sync across a dozen marketplaces and your bank. But it's accounting, not operations: no physical inventory, no listing/ops workflow, no teams. Many sellers pair an ops tool with an accountant tool; PalmFlow folds in enough bookkeeping that solo eBay sellers often won't need both.
