Nika + Shopify Integration

Coming soon

Nika does not yet connect to Shopify through the API. What is planned: Nika will automatically import Shopify order invoices, transaction fees, and payout summaries, extract the line-item data, and sync it to your bookkeeping records or CSV export. This integration is coming soon, not live yet.

What this does

When the Shopify integration ships, Nika will pull order invoices, Shopify Payments transaction fees, shipping costs, and payout summaries directly from your Shopify store via API. Each order becomes a structured record — customer, product line items, tax, discounts, shipping, fees — ready for your books. For Shopify merchants who currently export orders manually or reconcile payouts by hand, this eliminates the most tedious part of ecommerce bookkeeping.

Data flow

Shopify store (orders, fees, payouts) → Nika API import → structured extraction (line items, tax, discounts, shipping, fees) → review in dashboard → export to CSV or sync to bookkeeping platform. Planned: automatic payout reconciliation matching Shopify payouts to individual orders.

Setup

  1. 1

    Connect Nika to Shopify

    Authorise Nika via Shopify OAuth to read order, transaction, and payout data. Nika requests read-only access — it does not modify your store, products, or orders.

  2. 2

    Choose what to import

    Select which data Nika pulls: individual order invoices, Shopify Payments fees, shipping invoices, or payout summaries. You can import historical orders from a date you choose.

  3. 3

    Review extracted order data

    Each order appears with line items, tax, discounts, shipping, and fees broken out. Correct any field before exporting — Nika learns from your edits to improve accuracy for your specific product catalogue.

  4. 4

    Export or sync

    Download a CSV formatted for your bookkeeping platform, or (when available) sync directly to QuickBooks, Xero, or your accounting tool. Payout reconciliation matches the Shopify payout total to individual orders.

Limitations

  • No live Shopify API connection yet — this integration is planned, not available today. The current workaround is exporting Shopify orders as CSV and importing them manually.
  • Custom Shopify apps, third-party payment processors, and manual payment methods may not be captured in the first release — standard Shopify Payments and order data will be supported first.
  • Payout reconciliation (matching a single bank payout to multiple orders) is a planned feature, not guaranteed in the initial release.
  • Product catalogue mapping to your bookkeeping chart of accounts must be configured once during setup; it does not auto-sync if you add new products.

Works best with

Shopify merchants who process enough orders that manual export and reconciliation is a real cost — typically 100+ orders per month. For very small stores with a handful of monthly orders, manual export may suffice. Until the integration ships, Nika’s CSV import handles Shopify order exports.

Questions

Will Nika import all my historical Shopify orders?

Yes, when the integration ships. You choose a start date and Nika imports orders from that point forward. Historical imports of large stores may take time to process; we will communicate progress. Until then, Shopify’s native CSV export is the workaround.

Does Nika handle Shopify Payments fees and payouts?

Yes — that is a core reason for this integration. Shopify deducts payment processing fees from each payout, and reconciling those fees against individual orders is one of the most tedious parts of Shopify bookkeeping. Nika will capture fees per transaction and match them to the payout summary, so you see the true net per order.
