A free, no-signup diagnostic for Shopify, Stripe and PayPal sellers whose payouts do not match their sales reports, accounting records or bank deposits. Answer a short set of plain-language questions to identify likely causes such as fees, timing, refunds, tax mapping, clearing-account issues or double-counted deposits. It runs privately in the browser and gives practical checks to perform next.

Hey Product Hunt — I’m Lochlin, founder of LZ Financial. If you sell through Shopify, Stripe or PayPal, you have probably had the “why is my payout smaller than my sales?” moment, then lost an afternoon trying to decide whether the difference is fees, timing, a late refund, tax mapping or a deposit counted twice. I built the Payout Mismatch Diagnostic to give business owners a useful starting point without asking for credentials or an email address. You answer a short set of plain-language questions about how money moves through the business, and the tool identifies the strongest workflow risk signals and what to check next. It is free, requires no signup and runs privately in the browser. It does not upload store data, change accounting records or pretend to replace professional accounting advice. I would genuinely appreciate feedback on the questions, the scoring and whether the result matched a real payout problem you have encountered.

@lochlin_zhao This tackles a surprisingly common reconciliation problem. I upvoted the Payout Mismatch Diagnostic, and I like that it gives business owners a starting point without requiring credentials or store access. Keeping the tool private in-browser is a thoughtful choice too.
