Iridium wins Xero App Integrator of the Year

Celebrating Excellence

We are thrilled to share some exciting news. Iridium has been named Xero’s App Integrator of the Year 2025! 🎉 This award recognises our commitment to building smarter, more connected businesses by integrating Xero with best-in-class apps to create seamless financial ecosystems for our clients.

For us, this isn’t just an award, it’s recognition of the innovation, collaboration, and hard work our team has poured into helping South African businesses unlock the full potential of cloud accounting.

Building on a Legacy of Partnership

This is not the first time Xero has recognised our work. In 2023, Iridium was crowned Xero Partner of the Year in South Africa, an incredible milestone that celebrated the way our people, processes, and technology come together to help clients succeed.

Winning again in 2025 highlights just how far we’ve come, not just as a firm, but as part of the wider Xero community.

12 Years With Xero: From Early Adopters to Industry Leaders

Our journey with Xero started more than 12 years ago, back when cloud accounting was still a new concept in South Africa. As one of the first accounting firms in the country to adopt Xero, we saw the potential to transform how businesses managed their finances.

Since then, the platform and the community around it has grown tremendously. Today, Xero is at the heart of what we do, empowering us to:

  • Automate workflows that save clients time
  • Provide real-time financial insights for smarter decisions
  • Integrate powerful apps that streamline everything from payroll to payments

It’s remarkable to reflect on how far both Iridium and the Xero community have come in that time. From early experimentation to building an entire ecosystem of innovation that now supports thousands of businesses across South Africa.

What This Award Means

Being named App Integrator of the Year is about more than just technology. It’s about creating connected, efficient, and future-ready businesses. It’s about our team’s ability to think beyond numbers and build solutions that make a real difference in our clients’ lives.

We’re proud to play a role in shaping the future of accounting in South Africa, alongside Xero, our clients, and the broader community of forward-thinking accountants and entrepreneurs.

Looking Ahead

As we celebrate this award, we’re reminded of why we started: to help businesses grow with clarity, efficiency, and confidence. The last 12 years with Xero have been an incredible journey, but we believe the best is yet to come.

Here’s to continuing to innovate, integrate, and inspire together with Xero and the businesses we serve.

From Partner of the Year (2023) to App Integrator of the Year (2025), our journey with Xero is proof that when people, technology, and purpose come together, amazing things happen.
