§In short

All nine QuickBooks Online integrations, and where each one breaks the books.

Connecting an app to QuickBooks Online takes a few clicks. Reconciling it is where the books break. The recurring problem is the same across almost every integration: money comes in net of fees, or entries post against accounts that must be mapped correctly first, or the file simply won’t reconcile. This hub routes to a plain-English page for all nine common QBO integrations, grouped by what they do — payments & POS (QuickBooks Payments, Stripe, PayPal, Square), ecommerce (Shopify), bills & expenses (Bill.com, Expensify), payroll (Gusto), and CRM (HubSpot) — with the one gotcha that breaks each one. As an independent Certified QuickBooks ProAdvisor firm — not Intuit, and not affiliated with any of these apps — we set up the data flow and make it reconcile in your file. Already connected something that won’t balance? Start with QuickBooks cleanup.

§FAQ

QuickBooks Online integrations questions.

Which apps do you integrate with QuickBooks?
The common ones businesses actually run — the nine on this page: QuickBooks Payments, Stripe, PayPal, and Square for taking payments; Shopify for ecommerce; Bill.com and Expensify for bills and expenses; Gusto for payroll; and HubSpot for CRM. As an independent Certified QuickBooks ProAdvisor firm we set up and reconcile these connections inside your own QBO file — we don’t sell the apps and we aren’t affiliated with them.
Why do integrations break the books?
Two recurring reasons. First, net-of-fees deposits: Stripe, PayPal, Square, Shopify, and even QuickBooks Payments pay out the money you collected minus their processing fee, so the deposit never matches gross sales unless the fee is split out separately. Second, bad account mapping: every app posts entries against accounts in QBO, and if sales, fees, refunds, sales tax, payroll, and payouts aren’t mapped to the right accounts, revenue gets overstated or double-counted and the file won’t reconcile. Connecting the app is one click; making it reconcile is the work.
Are you affiliated with these apps or Intuit?
No. TechBrot is an independent accounting firm and Certified QuickBooks ProAdvisor. We are not Intuit, not Intuit’s official software support, and not affiliated with Stripe, PayPal, Square, Shopify, Bill.com, Expensify, Gusto, or HubSpot. Those names are trademarks of their respective owners, and QuickBooks and Intuit are registered trademarks of Intuit Inc. We just configure these tools to work correctly together in your file.
Can you fix a messy integration that's already connected?
Yes. A connected-but-wrong integration is one of the most common reasons a file stops reconciling — net deposits left as income, duplicated invoices, payouts that never tie out. We untangle the entries, fix the mapping, and rebuild the reconciliation. See QuickBooks cleanup for how that work runs, and the file review will tell us how deep the mess goes.
Do you set it up for me?
Yes — in your own QuickBooks Online file, with a named Certified ProAdvisor. We connect the app, map every account it touches, configure how sales, fees, refunds, and payouts post, and prove it reconciles to the bank. Your data stays in your file; we keep the books CPA-ready and coordinate with your CPA or EA, who files.
Where do I start?
With a free QuickBooks file review. We look at how your apps connect to QBO today — what’s mapped where, what’s posting net of fees, and what isn’t reconciling — and show you exactly where setup or cleanup will help. No pitch, no obligation. Independent firm, not Intuit, and not affiliated with these apps.
