Why Businesses Choose Online Accountants
The professional responsibilities of an accountant do not change simply because the service is delivered online. What changes is the way you communicate, exchange records and manage the accounting process.
Choose your accountant for expertise, service and value rather than simply because their office is nearby.
Fixed-price services make it easier to understand your accounting costs before work begins.
Supply bookkeeping information and supporting documents electronically rather than delivering paperwork.
Communicate by telephone, email and secure digital systems without arranging routine office visits.
We can work with established platforms including Xero, QuickBooks, Sage and FreeAgent.
Professional assistance with UK accounting, HMRC taxation and Companies House filing requirements.
More Than Simply Filing a Form Online
Good online accountancy combines technology with professional judgement. Preparing annual accounts involves more than transferring bookkeeping figures into a set of statutory accounts.
Before accounts and tax returns are submitted, the underlying records should make sense. That can include checking opening balances, reviewing bookkeeping, considering the treatment of expenses, examining directors' loan accounts and ensuring the Corporation Tax calculation agrees with the accounts.
This accountant-led review is an important distinction between professional online accountancy and simply purchasing accounting software. Software processes information; an experienced accountant can review it and apply professional judgement.

Online Accountants: Frequently Asked Questions
Straightforward answers to common questions about using an online accountant in the UK.
What is an online accountant?
An online accountant is a professional accountant who provides accounting and tax services remotely. Records can be supplied electronically, communication takes place by telephone, email or secure digital systems, documents can be approved online and relevant returns can be submitted electronically to HMRC and Companies House.
Are online accountants suitable for UK limited companies?
Yes. Limited company statutory accounts and Corporation Tax requirements can generally be handled remotely. We can prepare statutory accounts, calculate Corporation Tax, prepare the CT600 and arrange electronic filing with Companies House and HMRC.
How much do online accountants charge for limited company accounts?
Our advertised limited company accounts services start at £349 + VAT for companies within our Small service band. Medium and Large service bands are £549 + VAT and £749 + VAT respectively. The applicable band depends on annual turnover and gross assets, subject to the scope and complexity of the work required.
What is included in the fixed-price company accounts service?
Our core service includes preparation of statutory accounts, Corporation Tax calculations, CT600 preparation and submission, Companies House filing, review of bookkeeping information and professional accountant review. Additional support described above is also included where relevant to the engagement.
Do I need an accountant near me?
Not necessarily. Accounting records can usually be exchanged digitally and many HMRC and Companies House filings are electronic. A UK business can therefore choose an accountant based on expertise, service and price rather than geographical proximity.
Can I keep my existing bookkeeping software?
In many cases, yes. We can work with widely used accounting platforms including Xero, QuickBooks, Sage and FreeAgent. Suitable spreadsheets and other electronic bookkeeping records can also be considered depending on the service required.
How do I send my records to an online accountant?
Depending on the service, records can usually be supplied through bookkeeping software, secure digital document exchange, spreadsheets or other agreed electronic formats. This removes the need to deliver physical accounting records to an office.
