Highlights from the Xerocon Business Connect event

Dina is responsible for our comms and running our marketing campaigns, and is very passionate about giving you the right tools and materials to explain the value of Figured to new clients. She’ll be at Xerocon ready for a chat about how you’re going with your journey to advisory, and how you’re finding the Figured product. So if you’re keen to feature on our social channels or website with any of your insights (or banter!) then keep an eye out for her.

Write down two or three objectives and keep them in mind as you move through the event. Goals not only guide how you spend your time but also help you measure the value of your experience afterwards. Xerocon returns to sunny Queensland 3-4 September and this year we’ve invited Queensland icon Joe Brumm – creator of Bluey, the most watched television series in the US in 2024 – to share his inspiring journey. Join us to pinpoint your frustrations and challenges with opaque calculations, and create your ideal solution for giving you confidence with transparent calculations. Flying the Receipt Bank pirate flag, we set sail on an evening river cruise and lit the yacht orange. Onboard, they heard from some of our leading partners discuss their business transformation with Vicky Skipp, our VP of Sales in APAC, and Damien Greathead, our VP Accountants Programs.

Explore the new Xerocon Brisbane 2025 agenda

For anything product related or if you want a deep dive into Figured, be sure to keep an eye out for Jimmy – he’s got you covered. For the first time, we invited some of Brisbane’s local small business community to experience the magic of Xerocon at the Business Connect event. Two days of sessions, networking, and exploring the expo floor can be demanding. The event gathers a community facing the same challenges and opportunities as you. This guide provides practical advice to help you prepare, engage, and return from Xerocon with insights and connections that will deliver value long after the event ends. For the Chaser team, it was a chance to continue discussions in a more relaxed setting, reconnect with peers, and celebrate the strong sense of community that defines Xerocon.

Agenda: Xerocon Brisbane 2025

This flexibility means accountants and bookkeepers can help clients reach debtors in the way most likely to bring payments in. Tools newly available in the Australian market, such as debt collections services and the now-globally-available late payment fees, also generated significant interest. Practices appreciated the ability to extend Chaser’s automation with these additional tools, helping them reduce late payments while protecting client relationships.

• Goals not only guide how you spend your time but also help you measure the value of your experience afterwards.
• In this session, Xero economist Louise Southall will look beyond the data, exploring what the latest trends mean for small businesses and their advisors.
• Attendees can explore AI-powered innovations, attend discovery sessions tailored to specific interests, and gain continuing professional development (CPD) points while learning from experts.
• And its creator, Joe Brumm, is hitting the Xerocon stage to share his leadership journey and principles of collaboration, innovation, and inclusivity.
• Come and check out our eco-friendly swag in the Start Up Alley to get involved in the message too.

4 September 2025

Our partners sang, danced and celebrated, while discovering more about our advanced product packages, Streamline and Optimise. Xerocon is a unique chance to meet new faces and show them what makes Receipt Bank different. We’re especially proud to introduce the eight apps from this year’s event partners.

Upcoming Events

But if clients don’t see it, you stay stuck in a cycle of overwork and under-appreciation. This is your opportunity to let go of the limiting beliefs that block your firm’s growth. Saying yes to meet the xerocon brisbane team every client might feel like good service, but it’s often what keeps firms stuck. Xerocon wrap parties are legendary (if you know, you know), and the now sold out Xerocon Brisbane party at Cloudland will be no exception.

This is Xero’s name for the data interface that connects to enterprises that have thousands or millions of business customers. Since the acquisition a year ago, Xero has doubled the processing rate of HubDoc by improving the way in which it reads numbers from printed invoices and receipts. Xero has added a new data feed from Stripe – a globally exclusive feature, no other accounting platform has invested the time and money with Stripe to do it, apparently. If your customer’s card changes (i.e. they are replacing an expired, lost or stolen card), Stripe will work with card networks to automatically update the saved card details. This lowers the risk of payment failure and reduces the need to collect new card details. To add auto-pay, tick the ‘Offer auto pay’ check box on your repeating invoice templates.

Why Most Firms Get Poor ROI from Conferences (And How to Avoid This)

Read about them below and make sure you pop in for a visit at the Xerocon exhibitor hall. In this dynamic workshop, Jeannie Savage will explain her strategy for building a profitable service model that scales. Learn how to package your services with productisation, save time without compromising on quality by leveraging automation, and become a strategic partner by embracing your role as an advisor. What built a successful bookkeeping practice two years ago won’t carry you forward today.

We’ve invited local businesses – including Gelato à Go-Go– to join us on-site, to give you a taste of Queensland as we support local trade. We recently made a pledge to our partners to deliver the best human technology platform, to empower our customers, and become a force of good for accountants, bookkeepers, businesses, and the broader economy. #TeamClarity will be wearing our branded t-shirts with pride, almost 24/7, so be sure to stop us and ask us how Clarity is making business simple if you see one of the t-shirts wandering around.

It’s our privilege to shine a light on their achievements and thank them for joining us in the effortless bookkeeping revolution. This is a story about growth, about how the accounting and bookkeeping community are coming together to transform an industry. It’s also a story about the role technology and Receipt Bank are going to play in helping businesses all over the world work smarter and add more value. We’re proud to have nearly 80 app partners showcasing on the exhibitor floor this year, giving you dozens of opportunities to find solutions for whatever business challenge or need you’re coming with.

• EzzyBills empowers businesses to create custom AI-driven workflows for effortless automation.
• More than anything else, maintaining human touch in the cloud-based system is the key to “rewire the world of small businesses, making it seamless, simpler, and smarter” he says.
• Less friction means more predictable income, making getting paid even easier.

Together, they’ll break down what AI really means for your workflows, your clients, and your future in practice. We lowered in an X-shaped lighting installation for the breakout sessions, which created a visual division and enabled the audience to navigate to their designed zones with ease. When it came time for a keynote presentation, the X-shaped installation was lifted so the audience could enjoy them as a unified group again. Immerse yourself in an unforgettable experience filled with unexpected moments, inspiring discoveries, and a sense of wonder. Xerocon is the ultimate discovery playground for accountants and bookkeepers.

I judge this by the speed of the data capture process, which is similar to the Xero Expenses app, which I think uses a similar approach. Xero has not published any details about its process, but from the list of Xero’s Sub-processors anyone can take a guess. Anyway, this is a valid approach in the data capture industry and Datamolino although more automated also uses humans to assist our process. The new Email-to-Bills is great for freelancers and small business that do not need to automated hundreds of documents.
