FAQ

Questions, answered.

We do a one-off setup — connecting your accounts, cleaning the chart of accounts, and migrating any historical data we need. You'll meet your dedicated bookkeeper in the first week.
Move up a tier at any time. We pro-rate the difference and your bookkeeper stays the same — no hand-off, no learning curve.
Sales tax is included on every plan. Corporate tax filing is available as an add-on — your bookkeeper coordinates directly with our tax team.
We work natively in Xero and QuickBooks Online. If you're on something else, our onboarding includes migration.
No long-term contract. Cancel or pause anytime with 30 days notice.
