Why choose HubiFi

Multi-platform

Built for how you monetize now and next

Stripe Rev Rec only sees Stripe, and its NetSuite sync just copies Stripe’s data model into your ERP, one more thing to reconcile.Add Apple, Google or Metronome and you’re back to stitching it together in spreadsheets at close.

HubiFi automates rev rec across every system in one set of books and posts clean entries to your GL. New revenue stream, no new accounting project.

“HubiFi ID’ed six figures in orphan payments that I wouldn’t have been able to ID with Stripe reporting alone.”
Sara Honeycutt
VP, Finance and Controller, copy.ai
“We partner with Stripe, and while they’re great at processing transactions, they can’t give our team the visibility into transactions we need to build GAAP compliant month-end reporting like HubiFi does.”
Jourdan CaneteHead of Accounting, Mirage
Complex scenarios

Built to give you GAAP you can prove

On Stripe Rev Rec, revenue runs on rules you maintain, and changing one rule can inadvertently affect others.

With HubiFi, ASC 606 policies are built in, every Stripe transaction is recognized correctly, fees included, and every journal entry traces back to its transaction and payout. When auditors ask, you hand them the source, not a spreadsheet.

Audit readiness

Built to give you reporting you trust

HubiFi creates a single subledger, reconciled to the transaction level and enriched with upstream metadata, so any number can be traced straight back to its source system — audit-ready from day one.

HubiFi provides full GAAP compliance across ASC 606, ASC 830, ASC 326, ASC 340-40, and SOX compliance.

“Stripe is hard to navigate and the reporting we got from it made it way harder than it needed to be. With HubiFi, I can deliver better insights to my stakeholders.”
John AshtonFinance Manager, Healthie
