BeProfit Alternative for Non-Shopify Sellers

·4 min read

BeProfit is Shopify-only. If you sell courses, info products, coaching, or SaaS and process payments through Stripe—whether via Kajabi, Teachable, GoHighLevel, or your own checkout—BeProfit can't help you. You need a profit tracker that connects to Stripe directly and shows you cash in minus cash out by day. That's the number that tells you if yesterday was profitable.

The problem: BeProfit needs Shopify

BeProfit is built as a Shopify app. It reads orders, products, and costs from Shopify's API. If you don't have a Shopify store, there's nothing for BeProfit to connect to.

That rules out:

  • Course creators selling on Kajabi, Teachable, or Thinkific
  • Funnel builders using GoHighLevel, ClickFunnels, or custom Stripe checkouts
  • Info product sellers running their own payment pages through Stripe
  • SaaS founders billing through Stripe subscriptions
  • Coaches and consultants processing payments through Stripe

All of these businesses use Stripe as their payment processor. BeProfit can't see that data.

What you actually need (and what BeProfit was solving)

The reason you looked at BeProfit: you want to see daily profit. You want to know "did yesterday make money after ad spend?" BeProfit tries to answer that for Shopify stores by pulling in COGS, ad spend, and order data.

But for non-Shopify sellers, the answer is simpler: cash in minus cash out by calendar day.

  • Cash in: What actually hit your bank that day—Stripe payouts, not just transaction dates.
  • Cash out: Ad spend charged that day, plus refunds, chargebacks, and fees.

One number per day. Green or red. That's your daily P&L. For the mechanics, see daily P&L for DTC brands.

BeProfit is more of an all-in-one Shopify profit calculator—COGS, shipping, ad spend, taxes. NetDay is focused: did you make money yesterday? It answers that by aligning real cash movements by calendar day. No COGS entry, no Shopify dependency.

If you're looking for a BeProfit alternative because you don't use Shopify, you probably don't need COGS tracking in the tool itself (you can handle that in accounting). What you need is the daily signal: cash in vs cash out.

How NetDay works for non-Shopify sellers

  1. Connect Stripe (read-only): NetDay pulls charges, refunds, payouts, and fees—aligned by the day money actually moved.
  2. Connect Meta Ads (read-only): Daily ad spend by calendar day.
  3. See daily net: Cash in minus cash out for each day. No spreadsheets, no manual exports.

It works for Kajabi sellers, Teachable course creators, GoHighLevel users, and anyone else processing payments through Stripe. For platform-specific guides, see:

Common questions

Does BeProfit work without Shopify?

No. BeProfit is a Shopify app that requires a Shopify store. It can't connect to Stripe directly or pull data from course platforms like Kajabi, Teachable, or GoHighLevel.

What's the best BeProfit alternative for non-Shopify sellers?

NetDay works for any business that processes payments through Stripe. It connects to Stripe and Meta Ads (read-only), aligns cash in and cash out by calendar day, and shows your real daily net.

How do I track profit if I don't use Shopify?

If your payments go through Stripe, connect it to NetDay along with your Meta Ads account. NetDay aligns cash in and cash out by calendar day so you see daily profit—no Shopify needed.
