Xero: selected plans, costs and portability
Compare Early invoice limits with Growing, and Established for verified foreign-currency and project features. All selected prices reflect the October 2026 US update.
What changes the decision
Early has a 20 invoice/5 bill monthly allowance. Payroll and inventory add-ons are separate. A report export is not a full-fidelity backup that another product can restore.

Test your own workflow before switching
Export chart of accounts, open items and dated reports separately. For bank CSVs select the correct bank account and date convention; matching existing transactions is a separate product step.
Preserve opening balances, open receivables and payables, tax balances, attachments and a dated trial balance. A CSV bank statement contains bank activity; it does not recreate invoices, inventory, account history or reconciliations. Confirm that the chosen account, role and edition support the needed import/export format.

Prices refer to selected monthly list plans. Check the current checkout for taxes, add-ons, country eligibility and changed terms.
