Frequently asked questions
Answers to the common questions.
Anything else? Your dedicated accountant will answer on your welcome call — or WhatsApp us before you sign up.
How does the discount work?
The intro offer is applied automatically at checkout. You'll pay the discounted rate for the stated intro period, then standard monthly from the following month. Cancel any time — rolling monthly.
Is VAT registration included or extra?
Included. If you're not yet VAT-registered, we'll handle the registration with HMRC at no extra cost, then file your quarterly returns going forward.
What's included in the quarterly health checks?
Your accountant reviews cashflow, profitability, tax position, upcoming deadlines, and flags planning opportunities (dividend vs salary mix, pension, etc). A proper business review, not just number-crunching.
Can I switch from my current accountant?
Yes — switching is free and we handle the entire handover. Most switches complete within 2–3 weeks.
What if I add a second director?
Add a second director's SA (£198 one-off) and extra payroll employee (£6/mo). Or upgrade to Grow Bundle where both are included plus quarterly strategy calls.

Credit and debit cards via secure Outseta checkout. Direct Debit available after 3 months.
