Barespend connects directly to Xero, so your chart of accounts comes with it. Receipts are matched to card and bank transactions and arrive coded to the right accounts, ready to sync, instead of being recoded by hand at month-end.

## The short answer

Barespend integrates directly with Xero on every plan, from $5 per active member a month on an annual plan. It collects receipts by email, text or upload, matches each to its card or bank transaction, and codes the expense to your Xero chart of accounts.

Xero sync is included on every plan, starting at $5 per active member a month on an annual plan.

## How Barespend works with Xero

1. **Connect Xero.** Link Xero and your business cards and bank accounts. Your chart of accounts comes over with the connection.
2. **Your team sends receipts.** Employees email, text or upload a receipt when they spend. No expense reports to build.
3. **Review and sync.** Barespend matches each receipt and codes it to your accounts. You review what’s flagged and sync to Xero.
