Overview

Overview

Anchor is an all-in-one proposals, billing, and payments platform built for accountants, bookkeepers, and professional service firms that want to grow their business and improve cash flow. By centralizing your entire workflow—proposals, invoices, payment collection, reminders, and agreement updates—Anchor replaces multiple siloed apps with a single, seamless solution. With Anchor you can:

  • Automate proposals & invoices
    Draft and send branded proposals with one click. When a client signs, their payment method is captured and recurring invoices are generated automatically.
  • Automate payments & reminders
    Anchor charges clients on the agreed dates, retries failed payments, and sends reminders—so you never have to chase late payments.
  • Manage agreements & amendments
    Add services or change pricing with a single click. All changes are immediately communicated, keeping clients and your team aligned with accurate, up-to-date records.
  • Keep Xero in sync
    Push new client records to Xero or match them to existing contacts, and auto-sync invoices, payments, refunds, and payouts—making end-of-month reconciliation a breeze without manual exports or imports.

Anchor + Xero

Anchor connects directly into your Xero account via API. Once connected:

  • Invoice sync – Every invoice issued in Anchor is created in Xero in real time.
  • Payment sync – When a client pays an Anchor invoice, the payment is automatically applied to the matching Xero invoice.
  • Payout sync – Anchor posts the corresponding Receive Money transaction in Xero so you can reconcile with a single click.
  • Refund sync – Anchor generates a credit note and cash refund in Xero, accurately reflecting the refund in both your clearing account and bank balance.
  • Client sync – New contacts created in Anchor are pushed to Xero-or matched to existing records-to prevent duplicates.

Having an integration between Anchor and Xero is such a time saver. All our invoices and payments from Anchor post automatically to Xero without issue. It's a huge time-saver to have the proposal, invoicing and payment processing living in one system and with the integration into Xero, our practice billing process is so easy.
