Questions
Acuity’s own Xero link has stopped. Is this the replacement?
Acuity no longer allows new connections to Xero. Booking Sync is one way to fill the gap. Our guide How to get Acuity bookings into Xero now the built-in link has stopped compares it with the other options.
How does it compare with Zapier, Make or a CSV export?
Our guide Getting Acuity bookings into Xero: your options compared sets out what each costs, the set-up and what breaks.
How does it handle packages and gift certificates?
You choose whether they count as income when sold or when used. Our guide How to record Acuity packages and gift certificates in Xero explains both, and the other ways to record them.
Why doesn’t my Stripe or Square payout match my bookings?
Fees and refunds come off before the payout, and one payout covers several days. Our guide Matching Stripe or Square payouts to Acuity bookings in Xero shows a clearing account method that makes it match.
Will it make duplicate invoices?
No. Each Acuity booking gets one Xero invoice, even if Acuity tells us about it twice. You choose the date to send bookings from, so older bookings you’ve already entered are left alone.
What if Acuity or Xero is down for a while?
A catch-up runs every night, so nothing is missed.
Can some services go to a different account or VAT rate?
Yes. Change the account and VAT rate per appointment type.
Will it email me?
One email a day if something needs a look. No email if all is well.
Who sees my clients’ details?
Only Booking Sync, to make the invoice. We don’t store client names or email addresses. They go straight into your Xero.
I’m a bookkeeper. Can I use it for several clients?
Yes, one set-up per client. Each one links one Acuity account to one Xero organisation, with its own trial and £12 a month. You can set it up for a client if you can sign in to their Acuity account and their Xero organisation.
What happens if I cancel?
Cancel any time from the app. Booking Sync keeps running to the end of the paid month. Disconnecting deletes everything we hold. Invoices already in Xero stay.
