Jobber, a provider of home service software, announced last week it had partnered with the small business platform Xero, which runs cloud accounting software, helping home service businesses to easily sync their customers, products and services, invoices, and payments from Jobber to Xero.

According to a July 16 news release, Jobber is one of the first North American-based operations management platforms in the Xero App Store. The company said that the integration means Jobber customers benefit from seeing up-to-date and accurate financial data across both systems, enabling them to make more informed business decisions.

"Our newest product integration with Xero can save entrepreneurs hours of tedious administrative work," said Sam Pillar, CEO and co-founder at Jobber. "Home service pros want to be on the tools getting jobs done and earning revenue, not crunching numbers and performing manual tasks that should be automated for them.”

In its news release, Jobber cited the latest MetLife & U.S. Chamber of Commerce Small Business Survey, which concludes that businesses are becoming increasingly positive about the economy. The company noted that digital tools like Jobber and Xero can help lift productivity and help small businesses become more resilient.

The integration automatically syncs Jobber invoices with Xero. Customers can manage their invoicing and payments in Jobber and know their financials are ready in Xero when it's time for accounting or tax return work.

The integration enables the following items to sync from Jobber to Xero automatically:

Invoice information, including payments
Client records
Products & services
Tax rates and tax amounts

"I'm not exaggerating when I say this integration is a game changer for our business," said Craig Westwood, owner of The Elite Flooring Company. "Everything in Jobber syncs with Xero instantly, from clients to quotes to invoices, saving me 5-6 hours weekly on admin work. I'm very grateful for this partnership!"

The integration can be connected via the Xero App Store or the Jobber app marketplace and is available to Jobber customers on Connect and Grow membership plans in the U.S., Canada, UK, Australia, and New Zealand.
