What is Xero


Free & Unlimited

Sign up for free and use the free demo, which comes complete with sample data so you can instantly try all the features in Xero.

  • Demo company and sample data free forever
  • Try Xero with data from your own business for free with no obligation
  • Unlimited free support through help centre and email

Use the demo for free, forever

It takes less than a minute to fill out the free sign up form, which gives you unlimited free access to use the demo company for free, forever. The demo is great if you want to take a close look at Xero but are not yet ready to add your own business accounting data.

Take it for a spin

Start at the dashboard, run reports, see how the bank reconciliation works and even try adding transactions like invoices. It's a feature complete version of Xero, with only one exception: you cannot invite other users into the demo company like you can when you add your business. Since it is just a demo company with sample data you can really kick the tires without worrying about what you do.

Unlimited free support

We suggest you watch the intro video then go through the list of 10 simple exercises we recommend to really see all that Xero can do. During the demo you also get unlimited free access to the complete Help Centre, plus unlimited free access to support by email.

Add your own organisation whenever you want

The demo company is a good way to get familiar with Xero, but adding your own business data is the best way to try Xero and decide if it's right for you. To add your own data just add your own company from My Xero.

This free trial uses our Medium pricing plan and lets you raise a maximum of five new invoices and reconcile 50 bank statement lines. Once you have reached these limits you can choose to enter your billing details and select the pricing plan that best suits your business.
