Hood + KudTax
Connect your Hood seller account with KudTax to automatically reconcile platform fees, marketplace commissions, payouts and VAT rates across all EU countries into DATEV-ready entries.
Hood.de settles differently from the large marketplaces: in many cases the payment runs directly between buyer and seller, and the platform fees arrive as their own monthly invoice. So there is no statement in which sales and fees stand against one another — look only at the incoming payment and you see revenue without the cost that produced it.

What to watch for with Hood
There is no netted settlement
Because payments and fees travel separately, the report that connects them does not exist. The sales overview and the fee invoice have to be brought together deliberately — otherwise gross profit reads too high every month and the fee invoice lands as an unattached expense somewhere in December.
Listing fees accrue with or without a sale
The cost of listing an item arises whether or not it sells. It belongs in the period it accrues in rather than being loaded onto the next sale — otherwise a weak month looks better than it was and a strong one worse.
