Square + Xero

Setup the integration in minutes to easily reconcile sales and payments. Your daily Square transactions will be automatically imported, summarised, and populated to the appropriate account within Xero’s general ledger.

  • Accept online payments for Xero invoices. Create an online invoice in Xero and email it to your customer. They will have the option to pay it instantly via Square.

  • See your sales data at a transactional level. You’ll get a daily Square sales summary in Xero. Customize it by choosing from a wide array of formats. Captures gift cards, tips, surcharges, and relevant taxes so you can easily report VAT.

  • Reconcile bank deposits easily by automatically separating out fees. Because Xero automatically creates bank rules when you connect your Square account, any processing fees from Square are assigned to a fees account.

Definitely not worth the trouble of integrating with Xero

The integration, using Amaka, has changed three times within the last year - the last two times without notification. The integration creates gl accounts within Xero - to which I strenuously object - without notification or permission. It does not report sales tax correctly either. After the initial setup, there is no documentation on how to use nor how data is being placed in the new accounts and what to do with them. Finally, we killed the integration. It is much, much easier to run monthly reports and enter data into a worksheet to calculate manual journal entries. What a shame. Instead of making life easier, it makes it more difficult.
