Xero & QuickBooks API cost guides
Both Xero and QuickBooks Online now meter and bill their developer APIs, yet their native portals report only one app-wide total. These guides explain what each platform charges, how the overage works, and how to attribute the bill to the connected customer that drives it.
Xero API pricing in 2026: egress costs, tiers and the 1 July deadline
What Xero's tiered developer pricing and AUD $2.40/GB egress overage mean, why app-level billing hides per-organisation cost, and how to reduce egress before the 1 July 2026 migration deadline.
QuickBooks Online API costs: CorePlus credits and overage explained
How Intuit's metered CorePlus billing works, why the free Builder tier hard-blocks at 500,000 calls, the Silver overage rate, and why there is no native per-company cost breakdown.
Per-tenant API cost attribution: see which customer drives your accounting-API bill
Why native portals only show aggregate usage, how to instrument your own API wrapper for per-tenant attribution, and how to act on the heaviest tenant before the invoice lands.
