Getting started
While it says free trial, the Pinch software is free to use forever, we only charge transaction fees. These fees are 1.95% + 30c per card payment and 1% + 30c per bank transfer (direct debit), which you can on-charge to the invoice payer at your discretion.
To get started you will need:
- Admin access to your Xero account
- Photo ID of the business owner/director of the company, if you're not sure who it needs to be we can help you find out, just set up your account and email support@getpinch.com.au
- A bank statement with a full history of business transactions
- An ASIC summary or extract.
You will be asked to connect your Xero account during registration, but you can skip this and do it later by selecting to use Pinch without an accounting system option on the registration form. By connecting your Xero file you will be able to see all of your customers and invoices in Pinch and it is essential to do this to get the maximum results of using Pinch as a Xero payment option.
Once you have an account simply go to the documents section and upload the documents requested. We will review your account application and notify you within 2 business days, sometimes same day.
