How do I see which categories and platforms are most profitable?

Written by Shane Jordan

Open the Reports tab and view the Category Breakdown and Platform Breakdown sections to see which types of items and selling platforms make you the most money.

Category Breakdown

category platform breakdowns

See how each item category performs:

  • Sales by category (Clothing, Electronics, Collectibles, etc.)

  • Average profit per category

  • Sell-through rate by category

Use this to focus your sourcing on the most profitable item types.

Platform Breakdown

Compare your performance across selling platforms:

  • Sales count per platform

  • Revenue per platform

  • Average sale price per platform

  • Fee comparison across platforms

Use this to decide where to focus your listings for maximum profit.

Drill Down into Inventory

Tap on any platform name or category name in the breakdown to jump directly to your Inventory screen, filtered to show only items matching that selection. This lets you:

  • See exactly which items sold on a specific platform

  • Browse all items in a category to spot patterns

  • Take action on items that match the filter (relist, reprice, etc.)

Good to Know

  • These breakdowns are available for any time period (monthly, yearly, or custom date range)

  • A category with high profit margin but low volume might be worth pursuing

  • A platform with lower fees might be more profitable even if it has fewer sales

  • Tapping a breakdown metric takes you directly to the filtered inventory view for quick action
