Publishing on multiple platforms can make it difficult to track your sales. Book Report now makes it easy to see all of your sales in one place, with a consistent interface and detailed metrics.

Reliable and Accurate​

Thanks to our beta testers, these new integrations have been tested across hundreds of accounts, importing data on thousands of books and millions of transactions. All of this testing means that Book Report can handle the quirks of every platform - even those that only crop up very rarely. The integrations will be updated when platforms make changes, but these changes will be automatically detected, will not result in inaccurate data being imported, and the updates will be published in a timely manner.

Simple Setup​

We’ve made it simple to connect wide accounts to Book Report. You can have your data importing within a couple of minutes, and once an account is connected it will automatically import your data going forward. You can find the step-by-step instructions in our new user guide.

Once your accounts are connected, Book Report will automatically merge books that have identical titles. If you'd like to adjust which books are combined, there’s a quick and simple way to do so which you can read about here.

Detailed Sales Data​

Every publishing platform provides your sales data in a different format, but Book Report standardizes it all into a single, easy-to-understand interface. For every transaction, Book Report notes details like country, format, series, and marketplace. Metrics include sales, borrows, free downloads, and refunds. It's easy to answer questions like:

  • Across all platforms, how many sales did I have in Germany last month?
  • What portion of my earnings come from audiobooks?
  • Do I make more sales on Apple Books or Google Play Books?

These simple questions can be difficult to answer when you're managing multiple wide accounts. Book Report’s new support for multiple platforms makes it easy to analyze your data regardless of where it came from.
