Step 1. Become a Xero partner
Be more productive with Xero. Clients code, you analyse and advise – it’s an efficient way to work that makes it easy to add value. Get started by joining the Xero Partner Programme.
It’s easy and free, and when you reach Bronze Partner status, you'll unlock exclusive perks.
Step 2. Get certified for free
Being certified demonstrates your Xero expertise and brings you one step closer to Bronze Partner status. You can learn at your own pace or in webinars and get certified in as little as a day.
It’s easy to certify multiple advisors and – once you’ve added five Xero clients – new clients will be able to find you on the advisor directory.
Step 3. Choose your first Xero clients
Though any small business will benefit from Xero, it’s important to carefully select your first clients. Here are a few pointers to help you get it right as a new partner.
Want to migrate a large number of clients? No problem. Contact our Partner Team at partnerteam@xero.com – we’ll be happy to advise and assist.
Work with internal clients first to enjoy efficiency gains without needing clients to change their processes.
Consider clients who do their own bookkeeping – they’ll be primed to take advantage of Xero’s streamlined way of working.
Moving clients from Sage? Our conversion partner Cloud Convert will migrate your clients and their historical data.
