Merge Depop and Faire Sales Data for Refund Reconciliation
Refunds are recorded differently enough between platforms that matching them back to original orders is one of the most error-prone manual tasks.
Why Depop and Faire exports don't line up
- Depop: a transaction date column; item price and Depop's payment processing fee as separate lines; a transaction ID rather than a traditional order number. Also, like Poshmark, the export is minimal and mixes sold, refunded, and offer-related rows together.
- Faire: an order date shown alongside a separate ship date for wholesale orders; wholesale unit price plus a Faire commission column, distinct from retail-style totals; an order number tied to a retailer account rather than an individual consumer. Also, quantities are per case/pack rather than per unit, which throws off totals if merged as if it were a retail export.
For refund reconciliation, that mismatch is exactly what causes hours of manual cleanup every period.
How to merge them in under a minute
- Open CSV Experts and set your target columns once (Date, Channel, Order ID, Total).
- Drop in your Depop export and map its columns once.
- Drop in your Faire export and map it the same way — both merge into one sheet, normalized.
- Export as CSV or Excel. Same-layout files merge automatically next time.
FAQ
Does this upload my sales data anywhere?
No. Everything runs in your browser using JavaScript — your files are never sent to a server.
Does it work for more than two channels?
Yes. Add as many source files as you want; each distinct file layout is mapped once and remembered.
