Xero

Xero is an Amazon accouting software that works so smoothly connecting with A2X (which makes it integrable with Amazon), Quickbooks (same: a bridge between Xero and Amazon), Shopify, Square, Gusto, Zapier, iSOS, bank recepits, Paypal or Bill.com.

All your external platforms all together to help your Amazon daily tasks such as: financial processes, improve cash flow management, provide real-time visibility into business finances and more.

Xero is so good and so used in the accounting environtment that they even have an special edition of the software focused on accouting and bookkeeping companies.

Xero features

Bank reconciliation

Accept payments

Accept online payments by credit or debit card directly from Xero invoices, increasing the odds of getting paid on time (those are good odds, believe me xD) and reducing payment chasing.

Xero review

I don't think you can find a cheapest tool on the Amazon accounting software market with this amount of features. We are not just talking about more than 20 features, we are also talking about 25$ a month for a software that can reconciliate your bank account or even pay your bills and stay up to date on your inventory.

Also, the fact that you can connect with thousands of financial institutions globally through bank feeds and automated reconciliation is a major time-saving feature. And the option to integrate with various apps and services adds flexibility and customization to suit individual business needs.

Definitely, worth a try.
