How to Accept Credit Card Payments Through XERO the Easy Way

Melody Jaimon • October 4, 2021

Do you use Xero for your accounting? If so, then read on because in this blog post, we will teach you an easy way to accept credit card payments from your customers through Xero.


As an online accounting software, Xero is one of the best when it comes to serving the day-to-day accounting and bookkeeping needs of small businesses. And for many years, its suite of practical tools and robust features has been an integral part of how many organisations operate.


However, not many businesses know that there is an easy way to accept credit card payments through Xero, and it’s made possible by a powerful payment platform which we will introduce to you shortly.


Even if you already have a couple of other payment methods going, it’s a great idea to add more ways for customers to make payments so that it’s easier and more convenient for them.


Anyway, let’s begin!

Accepting Credit Card Payments via Xero (The Easy Way!)

This Australian online payment processing solution lets you automate the collection of credit card payments with Xero, streamlining your accounts receivable process so you can improve your cash flow and provide a better experience to your customers.



To get started, all you need to do is sign up to the platform, set up your account, and then integrate it with your Xero account. The platform has a pretty straightforward setup process and offers automatic reconciliations, meaning that there’s no technical setup required to perform the integration. It’s that easy!

The Platform’s Features

The platform offers a range of features that streamline the payment collection for both you and your customers. Let’s have a look at its best features:

Accept Payments from the Invoice

With this platform, accepting one-off payments (via credit card or direct debit) straight from the invoice is possible.

Get Paid On Time with Regular Automatic Payments

Get paid on the due date of the invoice by setting up automatic recurring payments.

Take Variable Payments Automatically

Similar to recurring payments, you can automate the process of collecting payments from any ad-hoc invoice amount.

Set Up Payment Plans

The platform lets you break a large invoice down into a series of smaller payments.

Batch Payments

Customers can pay all their outstanding invoices at once in a single payment.

On-Charge Subscriptions

With the platform’s on-charge subscription service, you can automatically on-charge the payment processing fees.
