After that, it is fully automated.
You can also help your clients set a limit to make sure they stay within their monthly budget.



Approve the bills in Xero
We will never pay a bill unless it has been approved in Xero by you or your clients.
We accept all approval tools such as Xero's in-built approval button or another app like Approval Max.
You can also add an extra layer of control by enabling Parakeet's in-build approval tool.
Once it's approved, we schedule, pay and reconcile the bills.
That's it. We pay the bills on the due date
We will automatically pay BPAY and EFT bills for your clients when they are due.
For BPAY batches, we email the batch to you or your clients for action.
Reconciliation
We also automate the book-keeping entries so you can spend more time on growing your business and less time reconciling bill entries.
You can see the reconciliation entries here.

How to help your clients with AR
Update Xero contacts
Keep the customer's contact details (Contact Name Primary Person, Email &Tax (ABN)) up to date in Xero and all your client's invoices will be ready for on-line payments.
This also gives your client the option to get paid even earlier by adding early payment discounts to their Xero invoices.


Set up how to get paid in Parakeet
Whether your clients receive payment via EFT and / or via Cards, Parakeet supports Bring-Your-Own (BYO) banking.
Customers receives the 'Pay now' email
The 'Pay Now' link in Xero invoices are now activated.
(💡 Do customers always 'forget' to pay invoices? Try adding early payment discounts into the invoice and see if they pay right away!)


Customers can now pay straight from the invoice! (or using the Parakeet Portal if they are registered)
Customers are presented with an option to pay via bank account or if configured, Cards too.
Customers do not need to be Parakeet users to take advantage of this.
Reconciliation
We take care of all the entries for discounts, surcharges recovered and close out your invoices automatically, so all you need to do is "1-click" bank rec. See here to learn more about reconciliation.
