HUBSPOT + XERO INTEGRATION
Sales sees the deal. Finance sees the invoice. Nobody sees both.
Won HubSpot deals become Xero invoices, payment status flows back, and sales and finance work from one set of numbers.

HubSpot shows what sales sold. Xero shows what finance billed. Until the two agree, each team works from a different number.
Finance retypes each won deal into Xero, and some get billed late or never.
Payment status lives in Xero, so reps chase finance before every renewal call.
Renewal dates sit in a spreadsheet nobody owns, so renewals and uplifts get missed.
Sales reports bookings from HubSpot, finance reports revenue from Xero, and they never match.
The cost: revenue lost between won and invoiced, renewal calls made blind, and a board asking whose numbers are right.
Connect both systems once. From then on, each won deal becomes a Xero invoice and a contract, and the revenue schedule follows the contract dates.
Connect HubSpot and Xero to ScaleXP. Both stay exactly as they are, with nothing to migrate.
Map HubSpot products to Xero items, and pick the deal properties that hold contract dates, terms and PO numbers.
When a deal closes, ScaleXP creates the Xero invoice from its line items, as a draft or approved.
ScaleXP creates the contract, tracks its renewal and builds the revenue schedule. Journals wait for finance to approve.
Invoice and payment status, including overdue invoices, is kept up to date in HubSpot, so reps see who has paid.

| Won deal → invoice | HubSpot | Xero | HubSpot → Xero | Sync clicked, or a Closed Won workflow |
| Contact | HubSpot | Xero | HubSpot → Xero | With each invoice |

Xero stays your system of record. ScaleXP joins it to HubSpot, so sales and finance work from one set of numbers, from the won deal to the renewal.
01
Each closed-won deal and its Xero invoices become a contract in ScaleXP, with the renewal tracked against it, so renewals due are visible to sales and finance.
02
ScaleXP forecasts revenue from HubSpot pipeline, contracted revenue not yet invoiced and renewals due, then compares the forecast with Xero actuals.
03
ARR, MRR, expansion, contraction, churn, NRR and GRR are calculated from HubSpot deals and Xero invoices, and every figure traces back to the customer behind it.
04
Segment NRR, GRR and churn by HubSpot properties such as industry, region or owner, or by Xero tracking categories, so sales and marketing focus where revenue lasts.
05
Deals, invoices, payments and credit notes sit in one customer record, and invoice and payment status, including overdue, is kept up to date in HubSpot.
06
ScaleXP compares closed-won deals with Xero invoices and flags any that haven't been invoiced, or were invoiced for a different amount.
MGI Research calls revenue leakage a control gap affecting most companies (MGI Research, December 2025).
07
Board packs with charts, drill-down and AI-written commentary are built automatically from HubSpot and Xero data. Ask Claude which customers churned last quarter.
“It pulls data straight from Xero and HubSpot, and everything just lines up.”
“Being able to see which of our customers are churning, identifying who we've missed billing that month was invaluable…”

Here is one won deal moving through HubSpot, Xero and ScaleXP, step by step, with every figure traced back to the deal.
Northwind Analytics signs a $48,000 annual subscription, January 1 to December 31, 2026.
ScaleXP creates the $48,000 Xero invoice from the deal, as a draft or approved.
When Northwind pays, payment status and 20+ fields sync back to HubSpot.
ScaleXP recognizes $4,000 a month and prepares the deferred revenue journal for approval.
Northwind adds $48,000 to ARR, and its January 1, 2027 renewal is tracked.
Illustrative data
It fits SaaS and subscription businesses where sales runs HubSpot, finance runs Xero, and the two teams still reconcile by spreadsheet.
Yes. HubSpot's free Data Sync app connects the two: contacts, products, invoices and payments can sync, and invoices can sync both ways.
Draft invoices don't sync, and contracts, renewals, revenue recognition and ARR aren't listed.
ScaleXP adds those, creates the Xero invoice automatically when a deal closes, and keeps payment status up to date in HubSpot.
Connect HubSpot and Xero to ScaleXP, then map your products and the deal properties that hold contract dates.
When a deal closes, ScaleXP creates the Xero invoice and the contract, and builds the revenue schedule from those dates.
Deferred revenue journals are prepared for finance to approve before they post to Xero.
Won HubSpot deals become Xero invoices, with contacts, products and line items carried across. Deal properties such as contract dates and PO numbers come too.
Xero sends 20+ fields back to HubSpot, including invoice and payment status and overdue invoices. Invoices, payments and credit notes also feed ScaleXP's contracts, revenue schedules and SaaS metrics.
In January 2026 Xero told customers it planned to retire its own HubSpot CRM integration.
HubSpot's Data Sync app is the main native option: invoices can sync both ways, but draft invoices don't.
ScaleXP adds invoices created automatically when deals close, contracts and renewals, revenue recognition and ARR. Read what the retirement means for SaaS finance teams.
Yes. When a deal closes, ScaleXP creates the Xero invoice from its line items, as a draft for finance to check or as approved: your choice.
One deal can produce several invoices on their billing dates, for example on an annual or multi-year contract. Invoices are sent from Xero, and ScaleXP never takes the payment.
Yes. The two-way sync keeps 20+ fields up to date in HubSpot, including invoice and payment status and overdue invoices.
Reps know who has paid before a renewal or upsell call. Sales don't need a Xero login, and finance stops fielding "has this customer paid?" messages.
The status is there whenever sales need it.
Yes. ScaleXP creates a contract from each closed-won deal and its Xero invoices, and tracks the renewal against it.
Renewals due and contracted revenue not yet invoiced feed the revenue forecast.
When an invoice is credited or changed, the revenue schedule is recalculated and the change is flagged for finance to review.
Yes. ScaleXP builds the forecast from HubSpot pipeline, contracted revenue not yet invoiced and renewals due, then compares it with Xero actuals.
Finance sees what is booked, billed and still to bill in one place. See revenue forecasting for how the forecast is built.
ScaleXP compares closed-won HubSpot deals with the invoices in Xero and flags any deal that hasn't been invoiced, or was invoiced for a different amount.
Bookings, billings and recognized revenue sit side by side, so finance can chase the gap before month-end rather than discover it at the audit.
Yes. ScaleXP calculates ARR, MRR, churn, NRR and GRR from your Xero invoices and HubSpot deals, and you choose the data source for each metric.
Set-up fees are kept out of MRR. Metrics can be segmented by HubSpot properties or Xero tracking categories.
Yes. One HubSpot portal can send invoices to several Xero organizations, routed by a field on the deal such as the legal entity.
Each organization keeps its own invoices and books. ScaleXP then consolidates up to 50 entities, with multi-currency group reporting, so the group view comes from one place.
No. A working connection only proves the data moves.
Before routine invoicing starts, test a few real deals: an annual contract, a deal that's already partly invoiced and one with a credit note.
Check the Xero invoices, the contracts and the HubSpot status, then sign off the first month.
Most customers are live in 1 to 3 weeks.
It depends on how clean the HubSpot deal data is, how many Xero organizations you use and how much history you bring in.
Every plan includes tailored onboarding: 1 hour on Starter and 3 hours on Growth and Scale. A demo gives you an estimate for your setup.
Plans start from $125 a month, and the HubSpot integration can be added to any plan. It works on any HubSpot edition, with no paid Commerce Hub needed.
See pricing for every plan in your own currency. If you're not sure which plan fits your setup, a short demo will help you choose.
