Connect FreeAgent to Apron

This article explains how to connect FreeAgent to Apron to synchronise bills and contacts in FreeAgent.

Connecting FreeAgent to Apron keeps your bills and contacts in sync automatically across both platforms. Any bill added in FreeAgent appears in Apron, and vice versa, so there’s no double data entry and your data is always consistent. Learn more about how the Apron integration works.

Connect FreeAgent to Apron

Navigate to the drop-down menu under your business name and select ‘Connections & Add-ons’.

Next, select ‘Get started’ below Apron.

Then, select ‘Connect to Apron’.

You’ll then be taken to Apron’s website to log in to your Apron account and complete the connection.

Within Apron, select ‘Settings’ in the bottom left corner.

Next, select ‘Accounting app’.

Then, select ‘Connect’.

Finally, select ‘Connect to FreeAgent’.

You’ll then be prompted to log in to FreeAgent to complete the connection process.

Once you’ve set up the integration, a dummy Apron bank account will automatically be created in the Banking area in FreeAgent for your Apron bill payments to automatically import into. This is different from regular bank accounts in FreeAgent as it’s solely used to record the details of bill payments from Apron.

Your bills and contacts will also now sync automatically across both platforms. Read more about how the Apron integration works.
