Which accounting software does Garage Shift connect to?

Xero. The connection is a one-click secure OAuth flow with no API keys and no technical setup, and you can disconnect at any time without losing data.

When do invoices sync?

Automatically, whenever you create or update one. Customer records are mapped to the matching Xero contacts, so you are not re-entering anybody.

What happens if a sync fails?

You see it. Every sync is logged with its status and the error detail, and a failed one, usually a network blip or Xero downtime, can be retried in one click. Nothing fails silently.

Do you support Sage or QuickBooks?

Not currently. Xero is the only accounting integration today. If your accountant is on Sage or QuickBooks, that is worth weighing up before you switch.
