Financials & Per-Card Profit

Overview

RocketVault keeps the money attached to the card that sold. RocketVault Marketplace orders show their final order amounts, while eBay sales use the itemized figures eBay provides. Each sale is broken into the numbers that matter:

• Revenue — what the buyer paid for the item (plus any shipping they paid).
• Ad costs — eBay Promoted Listings spend tied to that sale, when present.
• Selling fees — the RocketVault seller fee or the fees reported by eBay.
• Shipping — the label cost you actually paid.
• Net proceeds — your payout after eBay's cut: revenue + shipping collected − ad costs − fees − shipping.

You'll see these two places: the Financials module on the Command Center, and a per-card breakdown on every sold listing.

The Financials module (Command Center)

The Command Center opens with a collapsible Financials section above your Daily Briefing. On mobile, choose Command.

It shows, for the selected period:

• A net-proceeds headline with a trend arrow comparing it to the previous period of equal length.
• The five dimensions — revenue, ad costs, eBay fees, shipping, and net — as a compact, reflowing grid.
• A secondary line with net profit (after your recorded cost basis), average margin, and cost-basis coverage.
• A collapsible By card breakdown listing each sale with its revenue, ad, fee, shipping, and net figures.

Use the 7D / 30D / 90D toggle to change the window. The whole module collapses from its header, and the per-card breakdown collapses on its own — handy on phones, where the breakdown starts collapsed to keep the view tight.

The Financials module is included for every account. A newly completed sale may show as pending until its final fees and shipping cost arrive.

Per-card breakdown on a sold listing

Open any Sold listing (Cards → History, or click a sold row) to see a Financials section in the detail panel with the same five lines plus the net total. The listings table also shows a quick · net $X annotation next to the sold price once finances are reconciled.

Where the numbers come from

RocketVault Marketplace records the order totals with the sale. eBay can send fees, ad spend, and label costs minutes to days after the sale, often as separate updates. RocketVault checks for those details during its regular sync, so a card's figures fill in as eBay posts them.

While a sale is waiting on that detail, you'll see a "finance data pending" note and the card is flagged PENDING in the breakdown. The net shown until then is a best-effort figure (it assumes no fees yet), so it will tighten once eBay posts the fees.

Sync now

If a backlog builds up — most commonly sales made before you granted the finance permission — the module shows "N sales awaiting eBay finance sync" with a Sync now button beneath it. Clicking it pulls up to 90 days of eBay finance history (the most eBay makes available) and shows a progress bar while your sales reconcile; the 7D/30D/90D figures refresh in place when it finishes. A handful of very recent sales may stay pending afterward — that just means eBay hasn't posted their fees yet, and the regular sync will pick them up.

One-time permission

Granular finance tracking needs an extra eBay permission (read-only access to your Finances data). If you connected eBay before this feature shipped, reconnect once to grant it: Settings → Connections → reconnect eBay. Until you do, sales still record their gross price, but the fee/ad/shipping/net columns stay blank.

Net proceeds vs. net profit

• Net proceeds is what remains after selling fees, ad spend, and any shipping you paid. It does not include what you paid for the card.
• Net profit subtracts your cost basis (and grading cost) from net proceeds. Add a cost basis to a card (Quick Edit, or the card detail page) so the module can compute true profit — the cost-basis coverage figure tells you what share of your sales have one recorded.
