Add-On
Remote access with zero network configuration. LedgerCrossing Remote gives your off-site and cloud systems a secure https:// endpoint that reaches the LedgerCrossing install on your QuickBooks machine — no port-forwarding, no VPN, no tunnel to babysit. Subscribe, and the LedgerCrossing app switches it on by itself and shows your endpoint.
A secure remote endpoint, managed for you
Traffic encrypted in transit (HTTPS) — nothing is exposed until you subscribe
Rides the LedgerCrossing app you already own
Everything the API does — including AI. Your Remote endpoint carries REST and MCP: connect Claude Code, Cursor, or any MCP client to your books from anywhere, through the same secure relay. To be clear about what you're paying for: MCP is free on every path: on the QuickBooks machine or office network, your own tunnel, or Remote. The $39/mo isn't for AI features; it's for the hosted relay we run so you never touch a firewall. Included in the product. Not a tier, not a preview, not a limited-time unlock.

Under the hood, the relay is built on ngrok. LedgerCrossing provisions and manages it under our own relay.ledgercrossing.com hostnames, so in transit your data crosses ngrok's network.
Remote is an optional connected service. The LedgerCrossing app itself stays a one-time $299 purchase — no subscription, ever.
Prefer to run your own tunnel? Self-managed remote access — your own Cloudflare Tunnel, VPN, or reverse proxy — is free and always will be. Follow the step-by-step guide.
