## What you need to integrate QuickBooks Online

### A QuickBooks Online Account

If you haven't signed up to QuickBooks Online yet, go to [quickbooks.intuit.com](https://quickbooks.intuit.com/) and open your account.

Nexudus only integrates with QuickBooks Online.

### Matching charts of accounts and tax rates

You need to make sure both your Nexudus and QuickBooks Online accounts are set up correctly before enabling the integration. Properly matching both accounts will ensure you invoice transfers run smoothly and minimize transfer errors. Simply follow our guide on [Preparing Your Accounting Integration](/v3/docs/preparing-accounting-integrations).
