Good to know

Questions people ask before they sign up

How we count transactions

Your monthly band is based on the number of items we need to record and reconcile:

  1. 1 Each line on your business bank statement counts as one.
  2. 2 Each sales invoice you raise counts as one.
  3. 3 Each supplier bill or expense receipt counts as one.
  4. 4 Payments through Stripe, PayPal, Shopify, Amazon, Etsy and similar platforms count individually, not as one payout.

Example: a customer pays an invoice by bank transfer. The invoice plus the bank receipt make two transactions.

Are these prices fixed?

The calculator gives an indicative fee. After a short call we confirm a fixed monthly price in writing, and that is what you pay. There are no hourly surprises for routine work.

Do the prices include VAT?

No. Every figure on this page is ex VAT. VAT at 20% is added to your invoice, and the calculator shows the total including VAT so there is nothing hidden.

What happens if my volume changes?

We review your transaction count with you. If you move into a different band we agree the new fee before it applies. Nobody is back-billed.

Are there joining or exit fees?

No joining fee. The only set-up charge is for payroll, shown in the calculator. You are not tied into a long contract.

Can I switch from another accountant?

Yes. We request professional clearance and your records from your previous accountant and handle the handover. You do not need to chase anyone.

Which software do you use?

Xero, QuickBooks and FreeAgent. A subscription is included in the bookkeeping plans. If you already have one we work in your existing account.

Do you work with businesses outside Croydon and London?

Yes. Everything runs online and we have clients across the UK. The team speaks English, Russian and Romanian.
