Integration Features

Get the Most Out of Xero With Tipalti

Tipalti helps Xero accounting software users streamline AP automation, accelerate global payouts, simplify procurement processes, and optimise employee expenses, all through one integrated platform.

Reconcile Payables to Xero in Real-time

Advanced sync logic ensures that Xero accurately syncs data, including entity-specific sub-ledgers, in real time. Precise payables processes like reconciliation and general ledger reporting eliminate the time-consuming effort of exporting bank data to spreadsheets and reimporting it into your Xero account. This speeds up invoice processing and accelerates financial close by more than 25%.

Easily Pay Global Suppliers

Make fast and accurate global payments to suppliers worldwide in minutes, not hours. Process payouts to 196 countries in 120 local currencies and multiple payment methods—BACs, SEPA, Global ACH, wire transfers, PayPal, and paper cheques—from a single dashboard.

Tipalti’s built-in FX solution saves time and money on currency conversions with live and transparent exchange rates. Get peace of mind with proactive email notifications for supplier payment status and payment issues, payment approval workflows, and verification against “Do Not Pay” blocklists before any payments are processed.

Gain Control and Visibility over your Spend

Our powerful and straightforward procurement management solution helps standardise purchase request management and approval routing and provides real-time budget visibility. It also streamlines contracts, cash flow, manual data entry, purchase requisitions, supplier selection, PO creation, and approval workflows.

Scale with Advanced Multi-Entity Capability

Securely manage accounts payable data and processes across multiple subsidiaries, divisions, global business units, and brands. Use different AP processes and workflows within a single Tipalti instance with entity-based data segregation. You’ll get better visibility, control, and access with an optimised workflow and a consolidated headquarters payer account roll-up.

With our built-in tax engine, you’re always up-to-date with UK tax laws. The system features auto-coding of VAT codes, self-billing and PO matching with VAT.

At year-end, Tipalti generates the required tax reports and calculates any necessary withholdings. This helps your accounts payable teams stay compliant with HMRC and other tax authorities.
