Ballast
Microsoft 365 Copilot agent

Prove no money is missing.

Ballast reports where your Shopify money settled and flags every stream that will never appear in a Shopify payout — right inside Microsoft 365 Copilot. Deterministic, read‑only, and it exports any view to Excel.

Works from an order export you upload — no app, no store connection, and it stores no customer data.

What the payout report won't tell you

Everything you need to know where your Shopify money went — in one Copilot agent.

Off-ledger money, named

Shopify's payout report structurally excludes third-party processors. Ballast names every gateway — Afterpay, PayPal, Shop Pay Installments, GrabPay — whose money will never reach a Shopify payout.

Multi-currency, normalised

Every order in both the buyer's currency and your home currency — taken from the order's own money bag, never an FX guess. Currencies are kept strictly separate.

Refunds & honest net

Every refund set against the order it came from. You get total collected and net collected as separate lines — never a fake “net sales” that hides tax and shipping.

Tax collected

Tax collected and refunded by destination country, summarised for the period you ask about — filing-ready, and exportable in a click.

Multi-store rollup

Several stores? Roll revenue, tax and refunds up across all of them — kept separate per home currency, never merged — or drill into one.

Export to Excel

Any view becomes a formatted .xlsx workbook — money as real numeric cells with the correct currency format, and off-ledger rows flagged.

See it in 25 seconds

Settlement, revenue, currencies, tax — and one-click Excel export.

Why merchants trust the numbers

Most tools ask a language model to do the arithmetic. Ballast never does.

The payout report + a generic AI

  • Third-party gateways silently left out
  • The model does the math — numbers drift
  • “Net sales” that quietly mixes in tax & shipping
  • Needs an app install and a store connection
  • Guesses when a figure is missing

Ballast

  • Names every stream that settles off-ledger
  • Deterministic engine, integer money math
  • Honest labels: total collected vs net collected
  • Upload an order export — nothing to install
  • Says “not available” instead of guessing
