GST Reconciliation Errors in App Store Fees
Definition
Manual handling of Apple/Google 30% fees against gross revenue causes mismatches in GST-creditable expenses, leading to over/under-reported BAS.
Key Findings
- Financial Impact: AUD 136.36 fee per $1,000 sale misreported; typical AUD 2-5% revenue leakage from GST errors
- Frequency: Quarterly BAS lodgements
- Root Cause: Complex matching of gross sales vs. net payouts with embedded GST on fees
Why This Matters
The Pitch: Mobile app developers in Australia waste AUD 5,000+ annually on GST audit adjustments from app fee errors. Automation of fee reconciliation eliminates this risk.
