For Accountants & Bookkeepers
Recommend this to your clients who use Cal.com.
If you have freelance or consultant clients who take bookings through Cal.com and manage their books in Xero, Conduit is the one tool worth recommending. One-time 3-minute setup. Tax-compliant invoices. Clean audit trail. No ongoing support burden.
The gap between Cal.com and Xero that lands on your desk.
Your freelance clients collect payment through Cal.com and Stripe. But Cal.com doesn’t create Xero invoices — so either the client does it manually (and misses some), or it lands in your lap at BAS/VAT/GST time.
The result is messy: unmatched Stripe deposits in the bank feed, missing invoices, incorrect tax treatment on some bookings, and a reconciliation exercise every quarter that takes far longer than it should.
Conduit closes this gap permanently. Once set up, every paid Cal.com booking creates an authorised Xero invoice — automatically, with the correct tax type, every time.
What it does
Everything that matters to a clean set of books.
GST / VAT compliance, automated
Set the Xero tax type once (OUTPUT2, TAX001, NONE, or any other) and it applies to every invoice. No manual tax selection per booking, no errors.
One invoice per booking — clean reconciliation
Stripe pays out in lump sums, but Conduit creates individual invoices per booking. Every bank feed line can be matched to a specific invoice in Xero.
Authorised invoices, not drafts
Conduit creates ACCREC invoices with AUTHORISED status — they show up in your P&L immediately, with no approval step from you or the client.
Automatic Xero contact management
Conduit matches contacts by email. Existing contacts are reused; new clients get a new contact created automatically. No duplicates, no manual data entry.
A clean audit trail in every invoice.
Every Xero invoice Conduit creates includes enough detail to trace it back to the original Cal.com booking. Useful at review time, essential at audit time.
- Invoice reference includes Cal.com booking ID
- Invoice description includes event type and attendee name
- Invoice date matches the booking payment date
- Amount matches the Stripe charge, exclusive of tax
- Xero contact email matches the Cal.com booking attendee email

After setup, there’s nothing to maintain. Xero tokens refresh automatically. You won’t get a call about it.
