Getting Started
Every Chargezoom user is invited to book a time for a live, guided onboarding with our Customer Support Team. There is no charge for this service.
However, onboarding to Chargezoom is pleasantly simple and only takes a few minutes to complete, so for users who prefer to onboard themselves you will find below a video guide to integrating Chargezoom with Xero as well as written step-by-step instructions.

In the Setup Wizard, select ‘Connect Accounting Software’.

Select ‘Xero’
-
You will be prompted to ‘Allow Access’ to your Xero account.

Chargezoom will import your Xero account details, including customer information, invoices, products, and product prices.

Once your Xero account is integrated with Chargezoom, you can process sales, set up subscriptions, send ‘Pay Now’ email links, add customer credit card/ACH information, and sync payments back to Xero for instant reconciliation.
Chargezoom relies on the globally recognized avatar platform (used by WordPress.com and other sites), Gravatar.
