A2X
A2X integration

A2X in Polar: your real costs, in the P&L.

Connect A2X through the AI Data Engineer and your reconciled COGS, fees and payouts flow into Polar, blended with Shopify orders. Contribution margin and net profit finally reflect real cost, not a gross number with the expenses left out.

A2X → Polar

The A2X costs your store never saw, added to your margin.

Operating expenses, cost of goods and fees from A2X, added onto governed revenue, so contribution margin and net profit are computed on what you actually spent.

"Where do overhead and app costs go?"
Load the operating costs that never hit Shopify so net profit is real.

Net profit, not gross.

Ingest your A2X reconciled COGS, fees and payouts with the connector and blend them into the P&L.

Side by side

A2X keeps the books. Polar puts them in the P&L.

A2X reports your costs in its own ledger, apart from your Shopify orders, ad spend and margin. So net profit, the number that matters, has to be reconstructed by hand. Polar builds it for you.

The Gap

The A2X connector is only half of it.

Once your A2X costs are clean and attributed inside Polar, you can use them wherever you already work. Ask Polar in plain language, pull them live through the Polar MCP, or schedule a snapshot into the report your team reads every morning.

Featured Use Case

Net profit with A2X costs in, not gross.

Your accounting is accurate but slow and siloed: A2X knows the costs, but they live in a ledger disconnected from the Shopify orders, ad spend and margin that make up the operating picture, and net profit only shows up weeks later at close.

Costs netted out

Real cost

Expenses, COGS and fees pulled and subtracted, so margin is real. Once in, accounting behaves like any Polar source across dashboards, reports and AI answers.

Ask Polar, in plain language

No SQL

“Show net profit and contribution margin on real costs this month.” No SQL, no export.
