At a glance

Revenue Over Time is a sales metric tracked from Vinted data. It plots revenue across a 90-day window so you can see trajectory rather than a single snapshot. For a resale shop, the trend line reveals seasonality, the lift from a listing refresh or promotion, and any quiet drift downward that a point-in-time figure would hide. It is the card to open first when someone asks whether the shop is growing.

Calculation

Calculated automatically from your Vinted data. Vortex IQ aggregates revenue per period across the selected window and plots it as a continuous area series. See the At a glance summary above for what the metric tracks and the worked example below for a typical reading.

Worked example

A representative reading of Revenue Over Time for a typical Pro seller on Vinted. Across a 90-day window the area chart climbs steadily through the first two months, peaks after a Wardrobe Spotlight push in mid-period, then drifts down over the final fortnight. The drift lines up with listing freshness decaying: a batch of items uploaded early in the window has passed the two-week boost mark and is getting fewer impressions. The action is to refresh or re-promote the aging listings to arrest the decline before it deepens. The peak confirms the promotion worked, which informs the next push. For deeper investigation, use Vortex Mind to correlate the trend with promotions and freshness; for natural-language exploration, ask Ask Viq.

Reconciling against Vinted

Where to look in Vinted’s own dashboard: Vinted shows your sold-items history and balance activity, which you can group by period to reconstruct a revenue trend. There is no native trend chart for sellers, so reconcile by tallying revenue per week for a sample span and comparing the shape against this card. Why the Vortex IQ value may legitimately differ: Cross-connector reconciliation: complement with total revenue and orders per day for the full sales picture. For divergence investigations, use Vortex Mind.

Known limitations / merchant FAQs

Q: How often does Revenue Over Time update? It refreshes on the standard data refresh (typically every 30-60 minutes for live integrations), with the current period filling in through the day. Force a manual refresh for the latest read. Q: Why does my Vinted dashboard show a different number? Vinted has no native trend chart, so differences come from the rolling versus calendar window, whether buyer-protection fees are in the revenue basis, and the binning time zone. Align these before assuming a real divergence. Q: How does Revenue Over Time relate to other sales metrics? It is the trajectory behind the headline total. Read it with orders per day and AOV to see whether a move is driven by volume or price, and with the stale-listings card when a decline looks like freshness decay. Q: Can I customise the alert threshold? This card is a trend view with no default alert, but you can configure alert rules per profile in the Alert Rules tab to be flagged when the trend turns down beyond a set rate.
