Overview

Ignition (formerly Practice Ignition) is a client engagement and commerce platform for accounting, bookkeeping, and other professional-services firms that combines proposal creation, e-signature engagement letters, automated recurring billing, and payment collection in one workflow, with AI-assisted pricing insights and two-way sync to Xero and QuickBooks Online.

The problem Ignition solves

Accounting, bookkeeping, and other professional-services firms often juggle separate tools for proposals, engagement letters, invoicing, and payment collection, leaving revenue scattered and payments chased manually. Ignition solves that by combining proposal creation, e-signature engagement letters, and automated recurring billing with direct Xero/QuickBooks sync in one platform, so a signed proposal flows straight into billed, collected revenue without switching systems.

Pros & cons

Pros

  • Centralizes proposals, engagement letters, and billing into one automated workflow, cutting manual admin and speeding up client onboarding
  • Automated recurring billing and upfront payment collection reduces accounts-receivable chasing
  • Consistently praised, responsive customer support (same-day to 1-hour response depending on tier)
  • Deep two-way sync with Xero and QuickBooks Online for invoicing and reconciliation

Cons

  • Pricing is steep for solo practitioners and small firms, and costs climb quickly moving up tiers or adding users/clients
  • Payment payouts can take 5-7 business days with no expedited option, creating a cash-flow lag
  • Workflow automation, approval routing, and API/reporting access are gated behind the higher Pro/Pro+ tiers
  • Some reviewers describe the chargeback/dispute process as messy, and integrations with non-accounting project-management tools are limited
