How do I switch from my current accountant?

We handle the transition. We'll request your records from your current accountant, review everything, and set up your new systems. Most transitions take 2-3 weeks with minimal disruption to your business.

Why do you only show 'from' pricing?

Pricing is based on complexity, not just revenue. We look at transaction volume, staff count, and reporting needs to give you a fair price.

What puts me in a higher plan?

More complexity. Multiple entities, high transaction volumes, or a need for detailed strategic support and frequent reporting.

Are software subscriptions included?

Xero and Apron (receipt capture) subscriptions are included in all plans. Additional software is billed separately, and we help you choose the right stack with partner discounts where possible.

Do you work with existing Xero setups?

Yes. We'll perform a health check to ensure everything is configured correctly and help migrate data if needed.

What if my needs change?

We review plans as you grow. If you need more support or want to scale back, we can adjust your plan with 1 month's notice.
