When A2X Is the Better Choice

We believe in transparency. Here are the scenarios where A2X genuinely has the edge.

Automated Sync

If you need scheduled, automatic journal entries pushed to QuickBooks without manual intervention, A2X excels here. PrimeConnect requires you to export, convert, and import manually.

Inventory Costing (COGS)

If you need cost-of-goods-sold tracking and inventory valuation baked into your journal entries, A2X provides this natively. PrimeConnect focuses on transaction conversion, not inventory management.

Multi-Currency Conversion

If you sell in multiple currencies and need automatic exchange rate conversion with proper currency gain/loss tracking, A2X handles this seamlessly.

For everything else — converting platform exports, splitting fees, generating QuickBooks-compatible files across 11 platforms — PrimeConnect does it free.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

Is PrimeConnect really free?
Yes. Free forever. No trial period, no freemium limits, no credit card required. All 11 platform converters and all output formats (CSV, IIF, QBO) are included at no cost.
How is PrimeConnect different from A2X?
PrimeConnect converts your transaction exports into QuickBooks-compatible files (CSV, IIF, QBO). A2X creates automated journal entries via OAuth connection. They are different approaches to the same problem — getting ecommerce data into QuickBooks accurately.
Does A2X support QuickBooks Desktop?
A2X integrates with QuickBooks Online, Xero, NetSuite, and Sage via direct API. PrimeConnect supports QuickBooks Online (QBO format) and QuickBooks Desktop (IIF format) via file import, making it the more versatile option for firms running Desktop editions.
Can I switch from A2X to PrimeConnect?
Yes. Export your transaction data from your marketplace (Amazon, Shopify, etc.), upload the file to PrimeConnect, and import the converted output into QuickBooks. No complex migration process needed.
Do you support the same platforms as A2X?
We support 11 platforms: Amazon, Shopify, eBay, Etsy, Stripe, PayPal, Square, Walmart, Venmo, TikTok Shop, and WooCommerce. A2X supports 7: Amazon, Shopify, eBay, Etsy, BigCommerce, Walmart, and PayPal. PrimeConnect covers 5 additional platforms that A2X does not: Stripe, Square, Venmo, TikTok Shop, and WooCommerce.
Is my data safe with PrimeConnect?
Your data never leaves your browser. 100% client-side processing means zero server contact, zero data storage, and zero third-party access. Unlike cloud-based tools, your financial data stays entirely on your computer.
What if I need features PrimeConnect doesn't have?
For automated scheduled syncing, cost-of-goods-sold (COGS) tracking, or multi-currency conversion with exchange rate management, A2X may be the right choice. For everything else — converting platform exports, splitting fees, generating QuickBooks-compatible files — PrimeConnect does it free.
Why is PrimeConnect free?
PrimeConnect's ecommerce accounting tools are part of our broader QuickBooks utilities suite. We offer 79+ free tools to help small businesses manage their finances without expensive subscriptions.
