The Problem

When Xero Is the Last to Know What Your Apps Already Did

A Xero integration usually gets ordered when the bank feed won't reconcile. Payments landed days ago, but the invoices behind them weren't created in Xero yet.

  1. 01 · Invoices

    Deals closed in the CRM get retyped as Xero invoices.

    Won deals create Xero invoices with the right contact, items, and tax rate.

  2. 02 · Payouts

    Marketplace payouts mix sales, fees, and refunds in one lump.

    Settlements post line by line, so the bank deposit matches.

  3. 03 · Duplicates

    One customer appears in Xero under several names.

    Contacts are matched on email and company before any app writes to Xero.

  4. 04 · Payroll

    Hours from the time app get keyed into payroll again.

    Timesheets flow into Xero Payroll or Gusto, ready for review.

Your sales team closes a deal in HubSpot, and someone retypes the invoice into Xero. Field techs finish jobs in Jobber, yet Xero shows nothing until Friday. Amazon pays out in one lump that mixes sales, fees, and refunds. Staff log hours in a time app, and payroll gets keyed in all over again. The same customer exists in Xero under three spellings. The bank feed fills up, and nothing matches.

We start with the Xero App Store: for each app you run, we check whether a listed connection already does the job. Where one does, we set it up with your accounts, tax rates, and tracking categories. Where none fits, we build on the Xero Accounting API with webhooks and Xero's rate limits in mind. Your bank feed matches invoices and payments instead of waiting for someone to key them in.

  • App Store checked first

    Each app's own Xero connection is tested with your data before we suggest custom work.

  • One contact per customer

    Contacts are matched before the first sync, so Xero stops collecting duplicates.

  • Settlements split properly

    Amazon and eBay payouts post with sales, fees, and refunds on separate lines.

Our Xero Integration Services Process

From App Store Check to Clean Ledger in Five Steps

You see which apps already connect, approve the account mapping with your bookkeeper, and watch postings land in the demo company before your live organization.

  1. We list the apps around your Xero organization and test what each App Store connection already does. You get a short verdict per app: keep the connector, build custom, or change a process.

What's Included

What Our Xero App Integration Covers

Every project starts from the apps around your Xero organization. Most combine these six parts, from CRM invoices to marketplace settlements and payroll.

  • HubSpot Xero integration

    Won deals become Xero invoices, and payment status flows back to HubSpot for the sales team.

  • Xero Salesforce integration

    Accounts, invoices, and payments shared between Salesforce and Xero through a custom sync on both APIs.

  • Xero Infusionsoft by Keap integration

    Keap orders, payments, and contacts posted to Xero through a custom sync where Zapier recipes run out.

  • Xero Amazon integration

    Amazon settlements posted with sales, fees, refunds, and reserves split onto the right accounts.

  • eBay Xero integration

    eBay payouts matched to orders, with fees and refunds posted so the bank deposit reconciles.

  • Xero payroll integration

    Timesheets from Connecteam or your time app sent to Xero Payroll, or to Gusto for US teams.

Projects We've Built

Attendance and HR apps, plus store apps with admin dashboards. They aren't Xero integrations, but timesheets, orders, and payments are the data Xero needs.

What Our Clients Say

What Clients Say After Launch

Feedback from teams we have built apps, stores, and business tools for.

We had a pretty specific idea of what we wanted our website to become, but I wasn’t sure how easily we could explain all of it to a development team. There were quite a few moving parts, and we were working toward a deadline, so I expected a few things to get lost along the way. That never really happened. They understood what we were trying to achieve, kept us updated throughout the process, and got everything ready within the agreed timeline. The final site feels much easier to navigate, works beautifully on mobile, and is noticeably smoother for our customers. It was a huge relief seeing the original idea actually turn into the website we had in mind.

Work Culture

Why Small Business Owners Trust Us With Their Xero Ledger

Your Xero ledger is what your accountant, the tax office, and the bank all see. These habits keep it accurate while every app writes into it.

  • App Store before custom code

    We test each app's Xero App Store connection with your data first. If a listed connection covers it, we'll tell you before we quote.

  • Bookkeeper approves the mapping

    Your bookkeeper or accountant signs off on accounts, tax rates, and tracking categories. Nothing posts to your live organization on our assumptions.

  • Demo company rehearsals

    Every integration runs against Xero's demo company before your real books. Mistakes show up there, not in your BAS or VAT return.

  • Xero rate limits respected

    Syncs batch their requests to stay under Xero's limit of 60 calls a minute per organization. Big month-end imports finish without lockouts.

  • Built for Xero's home markets

    We work with UK VAT, Australian GST and BAS, and New Zealand GST settings. US teams on Xero get their sales tax setup checked too.

  • You own the connection

    Code, Xero app keys, and connector logins are registered to your business. You can change providers later without rebuilding the integration.

Good fit

  • Sales teams on HubSpot or Salesforce

    Your reps close deals in HubSpot or Salesforce, and you want each won deal to become a Xero invoice without retyping.

  • Amazon and eBay sellers

    Your Amazon and eBay payouts arrive as single deposits, and you need a Xero Amazon integration that splits sales, fees, and refunds properly.

  • Trades and field service businesses

    Your techs invoice in Jobber, ServiceM8, or Tradify, and you need those invoices and payments landing in Xero the same day.

  • Teams running payroll from timesheets

    Your staff clock hours in Connecteam or Clockify, and you want a Xero payroll integration instead of keying hours twice.

  • Software builders and bookkeeping practices

    Your product or practice needs to integrate with Xero for many clients, inside Xero's app terms and rate limits.

Not a fit

  • Shopify sales into Xero

    Your main need is Shopify sales and payouts posting to Xero. Our Shopify Xero Integration page covers that pairing for online stores.

  • Books in QuickBooks

    Your books are in QuickBooks, not Xero. Our QuickBooks Integration Services page covers connector checks and custom builds for QuickBooks.

  • Moving to an ERP soon

    You're planning to leave Xero for an ERP within the year. Our ERP Integration Services page fits better than wiring more apps into Xero now.

  • Budget under $550

    Your budget is under $550 and the app's own Xero connection mostly works. A short call with your bookkeeper may fix it, and we'll say so before we quote.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

Straight answers on Xero integration costs, timelines, and which field service, time, expense, CRM, and payment apps already connect.

  • Xero integration services with DeveloperLook start at $550 for one Xero App Store connection set up with your accounts, tax rates, and tracking categories. Custom Xero API integrations start at $1,750, and marketplace, payroll, or multi-organization work starts at $3,900. App subscriptions go to their vendors, and your quote is fixed after a free app check.

  • An App Store connection takes 3 to 4 weeks, including a demo company run. Custom Xero API integrations take 4 to 7 weeks, depending on the apps and transaction volume. Contact cleanup often takes longest, because duplicates must be merged before any app can match customers reliably.

  • Several field service management tools integrate with Xero invoices, including ServiceM8, Tradify, simPRO, Fergus, and Jobber. Their sync depth differs: Tradify syncs both ways, while Jobber pushes data one way into Xero. We check which direction your team needs before recommending a tool or a custom sync.

  • Yes, on BigTime's Enterprise PSA product, which lists Xero in its partner marketplace. Other BigTime editions don't list it, so check your plan first. If your edition lacks the link, we can post approved BigTime invoices to Xero through both APIs, with clients matched to Xero contacts.

  • Yes. Clockify's paid Xero add-on, available on its Standard plan or higher, sends invoices to Xero and syncs payment status back. Time entries themselves stay in Clockify. When you need hours flowing into Xero Payroll instead, we build that link separately and map each project to a tracking category.

  • Yes, for payroll. Connecteam exports timesheets, including hours, overtime, and paid time off, to Xero Payroll in Australia, the UK, and New Zealand. Xero runs its own payroll only in those three countries, so US teams on Xero use Gusto instead. We map pay items and check the first pay run with you.

  • Yes. Expensify syncs approved expenses to Xero on its Collect or Control plans, posting them to the accounts and tracking categories you choose. We set the category mapping with your bookkeeper and test reimbursable and company card expenses separately, since they post to Xero in different ways.

  • Yes. HubSpot builds its own Xero app, which syncs contacts, products, invoices, and payments one way or both ways, though quotes don't sync. It suits teams that bill from deals. We set the field mappings and sync direction, and add custom steps for fields the app doesn't carry.

  • Yes. Jobber syncs clients, products, invoices, and payments one way into Xero on its Connect and Grow plans or higher. Edits made in Xero don't flow back to Jobber, so we agree where your team fixes mistakes. We also map Jobber's tax rates and items to your Xero accounts before the first sync.

  • Yes. Square and Xero both list an integration that runs through the third-party service Amaka, which imports daily summarized sales and separates Square fees. It suits most single-location sellers. For per-transaction detail or several locations with tracking categories, we build a custom sync on the Square and Xero APIs.
