Don’t see the Xero logo? Please get in touch with our support team to enable it for your account. |
You will then be directed to Xero and prompted to authorise Blink to access data on your Xero account. You will be prompted to log in to Xero if you are not already logged in.
Once you have allowed access and confirmed, the connection is complete. You will be redirected to the Blink apps page, where you will see your Blink-Xero ID.
App functionality
Once the connection is complete, Blink will create a bank account called Blink Holding Account on Xero. This is a fake Bank account used to show all transactions done on Blink.
Starting from when the bank account is made, any transaction done through Blink will also be in the Blink Holding Account. The transaction will show the references inputted through Blink as well as the method of payment: Card, Direct Debit or Open Banking and type of payment: VT, Paylink, Blink Page, and Reruns.
