Wagepoint and Xero deliver connected payroll and accounting experience for Canadian small businesses 

Wagepoint and Xero today introduced a seamless and integrated experience for small business payroll and accounting. With this enhanced experience, payroll data — including wages, taxes, deductions and benefits — flows automatically into Xero, reducing manual entry and making it easier for Canadian small businesses to keep accurate, up-to-date financial records in one streamlined workflow. 

For many small businesses, payroll and accounting remain disconnected: payroll is processed in one system, then manually reconciled in another, creating duplicate work, more room for error, and delayed visibility into where the business stands financially. Building on a long-standing integration already trusted by businesses across Canada, the enhanced experience brings Wagepoint and Xero closer together through an intuitive single sign-on, letting users easily access Wagepoint with their existing Xero credentials and move more easily between payroll and accounting. By reducing duplicate processes and creating a more connected experience across two trusted platforms, the integration saves time, simplifies day-to-day financial management and gives customers a more unified way to manage their business.

Together, Wagepoint and Xero bring two of the easiest-to-use payroll and accounting solutions to business owners, combining a more connected experience with competitive bundled pricing and without the complexity, cost or feature bloat of enterprise-style platforms. Built around the way Canadian small businesses operate, the enhanced offering provides a meaningful cloud alternative for businesses and their advisors looking to simplify their processes, meet federal and provincial payroll requirements with less effort, and manage payroll and accounting through two trusted platforms that work in sync.

This comes at a critical moment for Canadian small businesses. Xero Small Business Insights (XSBI) data points to continued cash flow pressure across the sector, with many owners still waiting weeks to be paid after they invoice, even as sales begin to steady after several softer quarters. In this environment, a seamless payroll-to-accounting workflow saves time and gives owners a clearer, more current view of their numbers to make a real difference on cash flow confidence.

The enhanced integration is available now to Canadian small businesses, accountants and bookkeepers through Wagepoint and the Xero App Store, with new customers eligible for three months free when they get started with Wagepoint, Xero or both.
