Very Useless app. Orders are exported as paid, and there is no way to reconcile actual bank deposits than constantly removing & redo the fake payments created when exporting data.
Merchant fees are exported as a spend money and even if the account chosen should be GST on purchase, it is exported as BAS excluded.
They tell you payments can be reconciled against a clearing account, but they can only create a duplicate of receive money transaction instead of a spend money transaction that will balance the clearing account to 0.
Great app! Eliminates a spreadsheet for me - thanks. It would be nice if there was a bit more of a log of all the entries created in Xero (especially for new users; I had to hunt around a bit to find out what the app had done. It did do everything just fine). My spreadsheet did calculate the PayPal fees too (but it was not always correct!). Shopify fees too don't come across automatically. Turning on the email notification means I had to build an email rule to ignore the 'successes' (especially if no sales), but I couldn't find a way to only get notification of failures, which would be nice. This app certainly saves time..
**UPDATE**
Bold contacted me after leaving the review and offered to extend my trial (which I do appreciate). They said they were listening to the feedback and would possibly re-consider their pricing. Unfortunately it looks like they are sticking with the extremely high price they proposed. As I said in my original review (and when I spoke to them on the phone) $20/mo is way to high and they need to reconsider.

I can certainly understand that Bold need to charge for the integration, but the pricing is much higher than it should be for a relatively straightforward integration. $5/month for a few hundred orders would be much more reasonable than the $20 that they are asking. Bold, please re-consider your pricing!
UPDATE - USE AN ALTERNATIVE TO SHOPIFY AND XERO IF YOU CAN. Had this for a while... got it when it was free from Shopify. Well, Shopify sold it to Bold and today I received an email where they had the gall to say there would a 'small' fee for using the app moving forward. 'Small' turns out to be approx. $100 AUD per month. It's just another charge on top of Shopify's many app charges. So, now I'm paying for Shopify, the 'integration app' between Shopify and Xero AND Xero itself. Costs about $500 AUD per month just for these three things. BUYER BEWARE WITH SHOPIFY. IT IS GETTING VERY PRICEY TO USE ALL THE APPS YOU NEED. I'm sure there is a better solution.
OLD REVIEW...
I love it when it's working! Definitely worth having. Would be great if they could fix the disconnection issues as this creates a bit of havoc for us. Basically, everything is working fine but about once a month Shopify and Xero disconnect and it takes days to get it connected again. Sometimes this is easy... sometimes you have to go to multiple places to try and get someone to give you a straight answer on how to fix it. As most of you know, when you're a business owner, having to chase these things is a real pain.
Thanks Nick for getting my app to work correctly. Exporting orders to xero nicely now. Seems very easy to use
Seems to work well, I had one problem but the customer service team (Brenden) fixed the issue super quickly so I'm happy with it all.
Worst experience ever with this app. All it does is create problems and issue with incorrect sku's in Xero. Avoid this app at all cost.
Thanks Hamza for sorting out incorrect tax rates. Good service thanks
Now helping me with other issues of incorrect sku being transferred
Sadly since BOLD taking over the app, bugs have presented themselves and are not being fixed, rendering the product completely useless...
Seems the app is getting worse...
We have removed this app and are now using Carry the one.
The Bold app when free was manageable even with dropouts and the paypal issues but now they are charging for it it's not worth it.
