What Our Users Say
works good, wish it had batch mode
I was spending 4-5 hours every month reformatting exports manually. This tool paid for itself in the first use. The preview feature helped me verify the mapping before paying.
exactly what i needed thx!!
Super straightforward. Upload, convert, download. No account needed which is nice. Would give 5 stars if they add Xero support.
saved me hours of work
My accountant was so happy when I sent her the converted file. No more back-and-forth about date formats or missing columns. Everything imported correctly on first try.
fast and easy 10/10 would recommend
Been using this for 6 months for monthly reconciliations. Handles all the edge cases - partial refunds, multi-line orders, currency conversions. Very reliable tool.
Good tool, does what it says. Interface could be bit better but conversion quality is excellent. Using it for my 3 Shopify stores.
Switched from A2X to this. Way simpler for my needs - I don't need real-time sync, just clean data once a month. This delivers exactly that.
finally!! something that works with QB desktop!!

Why Validate Contacts Before Import?
Avoid Duplicate Contacts
Xero matches contacts by Name. Importing contacts with slightly different names
creates duplicates. Validating first helps catch naming inconsistencies.
What This Tool Checks
We validate your contact CSV against Xero requirements:
- Required Name field present and non-empty
- Email format validation
- Address field structure (POAddressLine1, SAAddressLine1, etc.)
- Phone number format
- Currency code validity (3-letter ISO)
You get a detailed error report with row numbers to fix issues.

Xero matches by Name. If a contact with the same name exists, it will be updated. Slightly different names create new contacts.
PO prefix for billing/postal address (POAddressLine1, POCity, etc.). SA prefix for shipping/street address (SAAddressLine1, SACity, etc.).
Yes. Xero contacts can be both. You can specify this in Xero after import or leave as generic contacts.
