How do you work?

We partner Xero accounting software and you for a seamless collaboration. You can directly issue sales invoices, monitor collections and cashflows, submit claims or make payments, whilst we handle the financial close process and reporting at the backend.

What are the reports will I be getting?

You will have direct online access to the company’s financials and reports, depending on the service plan that you subscribe. This means you will not need to wait nor will you get outdated reports.

If we decide to change from Xero, what records can we get back?

Financial reports can be easily and readily generated in various file formats from Xero, so you do not have to worry about losing your financial data.

Will my data be safe on the cloud?

Xero encrypts your business information and replicates it in several locations online. This means that it’s safe, secure and available when you need it. If your computer or laptop is lost, stolen or broken, your account is backed up and protected online in the cloud. Xero’s online storage means you can log in from any device with an internet connection and you’re good to go.

Additionally, we also subscribe to a secured data space where your files and documents will be safely and securely stored.

What if I already have my own accounting software?
