What do online accountants do?
Online accountants provide the same essential services as traditional accountants, but use secure, cloud-based systems to deliver them more efficiently. This includes day-to-day bookkeeping, preparing and submitting tax returns, producing annual accounts, managing payroll and VAT, and taking care of all HMRC and Companies House filings.
Alongside the compliance work, you also receive ongoing advice and support from our qualified accountants who understand your business. By working digitally, online accountants can give you real-time access to your financial information, faster communication, and a more flexible service – all designed to save you time, reduce errors, and make managing your finances far simpler.
Is online accounting cheaper than traditional accounting?
In most cases, online accounting is more cost-effective than traditional accounting. Rather than charging by the hour, we work on clear fixed monthly fees, giving you clear pricing and no unexpected bills.
Because online accounting uses efficient digital systems and streamlined processes, accountants can spend less time on admin and more time supporting clients. Those efficiency savings are passed on to you, while you still receive expert advice, full compliance support, and year-round access to a qualified accountant.
Are online accountants suitable for UK limited companies?
Yes, online accountants are particularly well suited to UK limited companies accounts of all sizes. They take care of Corporation Tax calculations, statutory accounts, Companies House filings, payroll, dividends, VAT (where applicable), and director Self Assessment returns, ensuring your company stays fully compliant throughout the year.
Our online accounting packages can be built specifically around the needs of limited companies, offering clear, fixed monthly pricing and proactive support rather than last-minute, year-end contact. This approach gives directors better visibility over their finances, timely advice when it matters, and peace of mind that deadlines and obligations are being managed properly.
Can sole traders and freelancers use online accountants?
Yes, they can be an excellent choice for sole traders, freelancers, and self-employed individuals. We can handle the essential tasks such as bookkeeping, tracking allowable expenses, preparing and submitting Self Assessment tax returns, and keeping on top of HMRC deadlines on your behalf.
Alongside this, online accountants provide practical advice on tax efficiency and record-keeping, helping you keep more of what you earn. With simple, cloud-based accounting software, you can easily track income and expenses in real time, meaning there’s far less pressure and uncertainty when tax return time comes around.
Will I have a dedicated online accountant?
Yes. You’ll be assigned a dedicated accountant who takes the time to understand your business, your goals, and how you operate. This means you’re not explaining your situation repeatedly or dealing with different people each time you have a question.
Having a consistent point of contact leads to better advice, quicker responses, and a far more personal experience than call-centre or rotating support models. Your accountant is available throughout the year to provide guidance, answer questions, and help you make informed financial decisions as your business grows.
What accounting software do online accountants use?
Our accountants work with trusted, cloud-based accounting software such as Balance, Xero, QuickBooks, Sage, FreeAgent, and similar platforms. These systems are designed to make managing your finances simple and accessible, even if you’re not confident with accounting.
Using this software, you can raise invoices, track expenses, connect your bank account, reconcile transactions, and see an up-to-date view of your finances at any time. Your accountant works within the same system, which means your records stay accurate, your numbers are always current, and issues can be spotted and dealt with quickly – no back-and-forth or last-minute scrambling.
Can I still speak to my accountant if everything is online?
Absolutely. Our online accounting process doesn’t remove human interaction – it enhances it. You can contact your accountant by phone, email, video call, or online messaging whenever you need advice. Giving you flexibility without sacrificing personal support.
Do online accountants handle all tax returns and filings?
Yes. A comprehensive online accounting service includes the preparation and submission of all required tax returns and statutory filings. This covers Self Assessment, Corporation Tax returns, VAT returns, payroll submissions, and Companies House filings, helping you stay compliant and avoid penalties.
Are online accountants secure and compliant?
Our reputable online accountants use secure, GDPR-compliant systems with encrypted cloud software to protect your financial data. Digital accounting platforms often provide stronger security than paper-based records, with controlled access, automatic backups, and audit trails to keep your information safe and compliant.
What locations do Accounting Wise’s accountants cover?
Accounting Wise provides online accountancy services to individuals and businesses across the UK. By using leading cloud accounting software and digital processes, we’re able to support clients nationwide without the limitations of a traditional high-street accountant.
You’ll receive expert advice from your own dedicated online accountant, available by phone, email, or online, wherever you’re based. While we’re registered in England, our online accountants work with clients throughout England, Scotland, Wales, and Northern Ireland, delivering a consistent, reliable service no matter your location.
What are Online Tax Accountants?
Our online tax accountants support UK businesses at every stage, from early setup through to long-established operations. We focus on removing the day-to-day burden of tax and compliance, giving you clarity over your finances and confidence that everything is being handled correctly.
Rather than using time-based billing or traditional accounting models, we operate on a transparent fixed-fee basis. As part of onboarding, we carry out a detailed financial and tax review, assessing your existing records, filings, and overall position. This allows us to understand your business properly and put the right systems and advice in place from the outset.
Are online accountants regulated in the UK?
Yes. Professional online accountants are fully regulated and must meet the same standards as traditional accountancy firms. Qualified online accountants are typically members of recognised bodies such as ACCA, AAT, or ICAEW and follow strict professional and ethical guidelines.
Can I switch to an online accountant from my current accountant?
Yes, switching to an online accountant is usually straightforward and hassle-free. Your new accountant can contact your existing accountant on your behalf, request the necessary records, and manage the handover process for you.
In most cases, there’s no disruption to your business and the switch can be made at any point during the year. The aim is to make the transition as smooth as possible, ensuring your accounts remain accurate and your compliance obligations continue without interruption.
Do online accountants help with tax planning?
Yes. Our online accountants don’t just file your returns – they provide ongoing tax planning advice to help reduce your tax liability where possible. This can include advice on allowable expenses, profit extraction, VAT efficiency, and structuring your business tax-efficiently.
Is online accounting suitable if I’m not confident with technology?
Yes. Digital accounting is designed to be simple and user-friendly, even if you’re not confident with technology. Modern accounting software is intuitive and easy to use, and your accountant is always on hand to guide you through anything you’re unsure about.
Many clients choose to do very little themselves, with their accountant handling most of the work on their behalf. Where your input is needed, you’ll be shown exactly what to do, step by step, making the whole process straightforward and stress-free.
How do I get started with an online accountant?
Getting started is quick and straightforward. You can either build your own bespoke package or choose an accounting package that suits your business needs, then provide a few basic details to get things moving.
From there, your new accountant takes care of the setup for you. This includes onboarding, providing access to the accounting software, and liaising with your previous accountant if needed. The process is designed to be smooth and hassle-free, so you can get up and running with minimal disruption and confidence that everything is set up correctly from day one.
