Product-Specific Queries

Using Acodei's Stripe QuickBooks Online Integration

Delve into the workings of Acodei, understand its features and functions, and learn how to make the most of this Stripe QuickBooks integration.
How often do you sync data?
All Acodei plans, including our free tier, sync data in real time. However, if your business processes a very high volume of transactions, our paid plans offer an optional daily summary sync method. This approach helps prevent your QuickBooks from being overloaded by extensive transaction data, optimizing performance without losing important details. For more details, please see our Daily Summary documentation. If you'd like personalized assistance or further information about enabling this option, please contact us—we're here to help!
Is Acodei compatible with Stripe Connect?
Yes. If you're paying outside service providers or managing payments for marketplace users, Acodei integrates seamlessly with Stripe Connect to help track your transactions. To get started and learn more about this integration, please visit our Stripe Connect documentation.
Do you support sales tax?
Yes, Acodei supports Stripe Tax, which automates the calculation, collection, and reporting of sales taxes, simplifying compliance with tax regulations. To enable this feature, ensure you're on a paid plan, then activate Stripe Tax from the Advanced Features section of your account. For detailed setup instructions and additional information, please visit our Sales Tax documentation. If you need further assistance, reach out to us at support@acodei.com.
Can Acodei handle multi-currency transactions and accurately reflect them in QuickBooks?
Yes. Acodei supports multi-currency transactions by syncing Stripe transactions in their original currency directly into QuickBooks. If the transaction currency matches the customer's currency in QuickBooks, it links to their existing record; otherwise, a new customer is created. For invoices paid in a different currency, Acodei manages currency conversion provided the invoice currency is decimal-based and the holding account in QuickBooks is an asset account (not "Undeposited Funds"). For further details and setup guidance, please visit our Currency Conversion and Multicurrency documentation here: https://docs.acodei.com/docs/currency-conversion-and-multicurrency/
Does Acodei offer an onboarding process?
Yes. After registering with Acodei and connecting your QuickBooks and Stripe accounts, you'll be guided through our onboarding process. This process includes our standard account mapping steps along with helpful tooltips and walkthroughs to answer common questions and make setup straightforward.
Are there any transaction or data limits within Acodei, especially for businesses with high transaction volumes?
Yes, Acodei offers tiered plans with specific monthly transaction limits to accommodate businesses of various sizes. Transaction Limits by Plan Free Plan: Allows up to 30 transactions per month. Scale Plans: Range from 100 to 5,000 transactions per month, with options like Scale100 (100 transactions), Scale250 (250 transactions), up to Scale5K (5,000 transactions). Enterprise Plans: Designed for high-volume businesses, offering limits from 10,000 to 250,000 transactions per month. Each plan includes features tailored to the transaction volume, ensuring optimal performance and support. Handling Transaction Limits If you reach your plan's monthly transaction limit: Notification: You'll receive an email alert upon reaching your limit. 3-Day Grace Period: Upgrade within 3 days to automatically sync all pending transactions. No Action: If no upgrade occurs within 3 days, your account reverts to the Free Plan, and syncing pauses. Catching Up: You can purchase historical data to sync missed transactions. Monthly Reset: Transaction limits reset day you started the plan each month. For detailed information on pricing and features, please refer to Acodei's Detailed Pricing Documentation here: https://docs.acodei.com/docs/acodei-detailed-pricing/
Is it possible to customize and map financial data fields from Stripe to specific accounts in QuickBooks?
Absolutely—customization is one of Acodei’s strengths. You can map Stripe transactions to specific products, income accounts, and balance sheet accounts in QuickBooks. This includes standard transaction types as well as less common ones like disputes, Stripe Capital, Stripe Climate, and more.
Does Acodei offer real-time synchronization?
Yes, Acodei offers real-time syncing by default. For businesses processing more than 500 transactions per month, we recommend using the daily summary sync method to reduce the volume of individual transactions sent to QuickBooks. This helps improve performance while maintaining accurate financial reporting.
How secure is the data integration process between Stripe and QuickBooks? Are customer financial details protected?
Acodei prioritizes data security. We undergo a rigorous annual security review with QuickBooks and meet the necessary standards to securely sync with Stripe. If customer data privacy is a concern, Acodei offers options—such as the daily summary method—that allow you to sync financial data without including individual customer details. For more information, please review our Data Processing Agreement here: http://www.acodei.com/dpa
Is Acodei compatible with all versions of Stripe and QuickBooks?
Acodei is fully compatible with all versions of QuickBooks Online, except with QuickBooks Self-Employed. To connect with Stripe, you’ll need admin or developer access to install and authorize the Acodei app for integration.
How long does it take to set up Acodei sync?
Setting up Acodei typically takes 10 minutes or less. The key to a smooth onboarding is knowing which QuickBooks accounts you want to use for your Stripe mappings. For example, be ready to select accounts for sales, refunds, Stripe payouts, and your Stripe balance. Most users use Undeposited Funds to track their Stripe balance, but you can choose any account that fits your workflow. Having this information on hand will help you complete setup quickly and confidently.
