ChamberSync is the billing and financial-reporting platform built for barristers' chambers. It connects your fees system and your accounts ledger, runs the monthly member billing cycle end-to-end, and gets the statements out of the door, accurately and on time.
The fees system. The accounts ledger. And a pile of manual adjustments in spreadsheets. Pulling them together for the monthly billing run has meant re-keying and spreadsheet gymnastics, reconciliation done by eye under deadline, figures whose origin is hard to trace, and a process often understood by only one or two people.
ChamberSync replaces that with one platform that ingests both source systems, applies the rules, and produces the statements — contribution, rent, recharges — calculated the way chambers actually charge.
Sage 50 syncs securely in the background, encrypted and automatic. LEX fee income comes from the payment summary you already export: drop it in, and ChamberSync validates, imports and logs it. Nothing is re-keyed.
Import the month's data, agree fees, apply rates and recharges, preview and validate, then publish numbered statements.
Statements emailed and evidenced, figures reconciled against source, export to Sage, close the period.
Fee income, recharges, payments and balances, rent calculations and manual adjustments come together in a single member record and a single statement. No more stitching systems together by hand.
A guided, repeatable cycle that shows where you are at every step. It handles split-rate members natively, applies rent adjustments and parental credits, generates recurring and one-off recharges, treats leavers and zero-value periods correctly, and sets direct-debit collection dates that respect the UK bank-holiday calendar.
Email dispatch per member with configurable envelopes, CC to the member's accountant, VAT returns attached on each member's quarter, and a full delivery history. Publishing is half the job; ChamberSync can prove the other half happened.
Built so the numbers tie out and can be evidenced: to members, to the treasurer, to auditors. Reconciliation against source figures, aged-debt reporting, full import history, and a complete audit trail of who viewed and who changed billing data.
Summary sheet, fee income detail, recharge detail. Every line can explain itself. Hover any figure to see, in plain English, what it is and which system it came from. Run in parallel, reconcile against your current figures, then commit.

Not generic accounting software bent to fit. ChamberSync handles real chambers complexity and member quirks: Members with split rates; door tenant pass-throughs; parental leave credits; capped pupillage credits; floorspace charges; custom VAT periods; rent at source; rent by instalment.
ChamberSync is built to be tailored to the unique workflows and requirements of your chambers. The modular architecture allows you to enable only the features you need, and request customisations as your practices evolve.
