Set up a Monzo, Starling or Tide bank feed into a client's Xero

Option 1: Monzo Business

1. Client needs Monzo Business Pro or Team.
2. In the Monzo app: + > Connect accounting tool > Xero (or Integrations on the web).
3. Choose whether to sync up to 12 months of history. Skip it if you already imported those lines.

Option 2: Starling

1. In the Starling app: Marketplace > Browse > Accounting > Xero > Add.
2. Log in to Xero, pick the organisation, the Xero bank account and the start date.
3. Diary a reminder: Starling asks for re-authorisation every 90 days.

Option 3: Tide

1. In the Tide app: Admin > All Actions > Accounting integrations.
2. Connect Xero, then map Tide categories to Xero accounts if the client uses the Xero Connector.

Paste this into ChatGPT, Copilot, Gemini or Claude:

Write a short, friendly email from a UK bookkeeper asking a client to connect their business bank feed to Xero. Include step-by-step instructions for Monzo, Starling and Tide as three short lists, and say I'll never ask for their banking password.
