Platforms and features
The pricing page names, across its four versions:
- Receipt capture and an archive of receipts
- Quotes, invoices, e-invoices and reminders
- Bookkeeping with income-surplus accounting and VAT
- EU invoices and instalment invoices on the top version
- An API on the top version
- Hosting, backups, updates and support included, with no extra costs stated
Lexware Office is built for German freelancers and small companies, and the page speaks of tax office filings and German accounting practice. A German reseller who trades as a business, for example someone selling regularly on Kleinanzeigen, eBay or Vinted, would look at version L, the first one that names bookkeeping and VAT. The entry version S covers only receipts, so it is a filing aid and not full accounting. The introductory half price lasts three months and then the standard price applies. The page says tax advisers can get free online access to the account. Resale IQ does not give accounting or tax advice; ask a qualified adviser how your resale income is treated where you live.
Who it is for, and who it is not for
Good fit: A German seller who runs a registered business and wants receipts, invoices, income-surplus accounting and VAT in one cloud tool with monthly cancellation.
Poor fit: A seller outside Germany, and a private seller who only needs to keep a few receipts and has no business to account for.

How it pairs with Resale IQ
Lexware Office keeps the books. Resale IQ helps with the buying decision from Vinted EU asking prices. How resale income is taxed in Germany is a question for a Steuerberater, not this directory.
