E-commerce and digital platforms
E-commerce grows on orders and loses money on returns, delivery and discounts. Cash-on-delivery, payment gateways and inventory held by sellers make reconciliation the hardest and most important job.
The questions that decide the numbers
What a e-commerce and digital platforms business needs answered.
- 01What does an order earn after delivery, returns and discounts?
- 02Do payments, gateways and deliveries reconcile every day?
- 03How is VAT applied to platform and seller income?
- 04Is the business investor-ready on unit economics?
Across technology & emerging
Revenue that is recognised over time rather than on delivery, costs that are almost entirely people, and often a foreign parent or customer that brings transfer pricing and repatriation into scope. For subsidiaries and outsourcing operations, the recurring issues are intercompany pricing that can be defended, and the reporting package the parent needs on its own basis. Growth is rarely the problem. Proving margin on each contract usually is.
