Last night Mayday had the privilege of being hosted at the Xero Awards 2023 and what a fantastic evening it was! We are absolutely thrilled to have won the Xero Emerging App Partner of the Year award. To be recognised in this way for our determination to build innovative products and deliver a fantastic experience for our users is a great achievement, one we are incredibly proud of.

The award recognises a new app partner that has made great progress with Xero in a short space of time, providing a great user experience and making an excellent start with engaging Xero’s customer base. It acknowledges that we have delivered exceptional customer care and innovation.

Our Journey

To have won this award on the eve of our first birthday is a testament to the huge progress we have made in such a short period of time. Mayday launched on 20 April 2022 with our mission to mend month end for finance teams. We started by focusing on the pain points of having multiple entities as a business:

• Recharger automates intercompany charges of costs and revenues between related entities.
• BRAG (bank reconciliation across the group) enables the one-click matching of bank transactions in one group entity to the underlying bill or invoice in another.
• Mayday Balancer will be released this quarter, keeping your inter-company loan accounts in balance.
  

It’s been an incredible first year. We’ve been called the “answer to a larger Xero user’s prayers”. Troy at SPM Assets talked about how “there's software we tolerate, software we appreciate, software we love, and then there's Mayday”. And we’re just getting started. With our multi-entity product suite in place, we’ll move on to month-end pain points that also affect single-entity businesses: revenue recognition, cost journals, and more. To see what’s next for Mayday, read our Q2 Roadmap.

Thank you

We are immensely grateful to the Xero team for all the support they provide, for choosing Mayday to win the award, and for hosting a wonderful evening. It is a privilege to be part of the Xero community.

The Mayday team are so grateful to our Co-Founders, David and Griff, for leading our team and ensuring we keep building innovative products and delivering incredible user experience. Congratulations to the Emerging App nominees Capitalise and NextMinute, it was an honour to be nominated amongst such leading-edge talent in the Xero App Ecosystem.

Above all, a massive thank you to our users. We are so incredibly grateful for all those who use and love Mayday and we hugely appreciate the trust you have placed in us as a new product. It's been amazing working with you. The insights that you've shared with us are instrumental in bringing our inter-company module for Xero to life and we are so excited about the product we will continue to build for you in the months and years ahead. Mayday will never stop emerging.

What’s all the fuss about?
