Can we have an update on progress please Xero? This is a critical update for all charities using Xero which would enable valuable resources to be used in other areas.

This feature would be incredibly valuable to us as a small charity, saving unnecessary administration time that could be spent on other things. We recently switched to using Xero, and were disappointed to learn that this integration is not possible.

Please integrate with CAF Bank as soon as possible. CAF Bank users had hoped this would happen at the last CAF Bank update, but it did not. I agree with comments below. I have to download a statement CSV and reformat to enter into XERO, this is laborious and open to errors. (Treasurer, Lewes Priory Trust, with Xero supplied by accountants).

Adding my voice to this, an integration between Xero and CAF Bank is essential

Integrating with CAF would be a hugely valuable addition for those of us working with charities. At the moment, the lack of integration creates unnecessary manual work, increases the risk of errors, and makes reconciliation more time-consuming than it needs to be.

A direct feed or integration with CAF accounts would streamline processes significantly, improve accuracy, and save considerable time for both accountants and organisations.

It would also remove a key barrier for charities considering moving to Xero. Many are keen to adopt more efficient systems, but without this functionality, the transition can feel impractical.

This integration would not only enhance the user experience for existing clients but also make Xero a far more attractive option within the charity sector.

This feels like a key opportunity for Xero to better support the charity sector, and given the potential to improve efficiency and attract more charity clients, I’d strongly encourage it to be prioritised.

This integration would be extremely valuable to our charity. It would speed up our work

Just following up my comment from a month ago when we first joined CAF bank. A Bank feed from CAF bank into Xero is very important to us.
Please could Xero provide an update?

This integration would be extremely valuable to our charity. We are a small finance team and this would speed up many tasks currently done manually and reduce the risk of errors.

Enabling a bank feed from CAF Bank is critical to accurate bookkeeping and accounting. As a new, start up charity, this is vital to us to support accurate record keeping, monitor our cashflow and report accurately to our Trustees. There will also be a cost saving to us in reduced bookkeeping fees if Xero has a bank feed to CAF Bank.

This integration would be so much easier and save so much time for our charity.

this would save so much time. Xero, it would be a huge benefit to do this to so many organisations

This is well needed function that would save time and improve our accounting processes for us as a charity.

We're a small charity who are strongly considering moving to Xero post y/e, and were very much hoping to use the live bank feed, so would love to see this enabled, as it was a key draw for us.

Having CAF integration to Xero would be such a huge time saver!!

CAF Bank is our main banking provider, and being able to set up a bank feed would make my work so much easier!

This would be helpful please.
But not as important as being able to give users permissions to view specific accounts only.

Grateful to read that this is on Xero's agenda. We've just moved to Xero and it is frustrating that CAF Bank are unable to integrate which limits the functionality and usefulness to us of Xero. As a Charity with a small staff team we would ask Xero to push for its prompt integration. Thank you

Adding my voice to the importance of this issue for the two charities that I work for who both use CAF and Xero. It would save us a lot of time and make processes run much more smoothly

How far up the list of priorities is the bank feed between Xero & CAF Bank?

I understand that CAF Bank now have put in place the capabilities to feed through to Xero and we just need Xero to get the link sorted.

How soon is this likely to happen?? Thanks

Echo the comments below, CAF are saying the ball is in your court. It really would make such a difference to have this facility. In practice charities often have a very limited choice of banking partners and CAF is sometimes the only feasible option. It would be great to feel that Xero were really getting behind the charity sector in this way.
