Fee ranges by vertical. Specifics in writing after your call.
Monthly fees. Direct Debit. No hourly billing. No surprise charges.
Every fee is agreed in writing after a 20-minute discovery call. Compliance Vault™ and our published service standards are included at every tier — there is no cheaper version of the standard.
Because every business is different — and an honest quote requires understanding yours.
A 3-property landlord owning personally pays differently than a 10-property SPV. A £200k turnover Ltd with one director needs different work than a £2m turnover Ltd with three directors and payroll. We publish ranges so wildly mismatched expectations filter out before the call — and we commit to a specific fee in writing after the 20-minute discovery call, effective for the next 12 months.

These are entry-to-typical ranges. Specifics are agreed in writing after your discovery call — based on actual scope, not a tier match.
There is no cheaper version of the standard.
Compliance Vault™, the Annual Compliance Review, and the published service standards apply to every client — regardless of fee.
- Compliance Vault™ — Evidence Pack, Deadline Lock, Portfolio Reporting Pack
- All compliance filings (Companies House, HMRC) included
- Annual Compliance Review every 12 months
- Published service standards — in your engagement letter
- WhatsApp typically under 30 minutes during business hours
- Email reply within 1 working day
- Phone access — manned reception, no voicemail-only lines
- Named accountant — no rotating account managers
- Direct Debit billing via Adfin — predictable monthly fees
Things outside the monthly fee — quoted separately.
One-off projects
R&D claim preparation, complex restructuring, due diligence, exit advisory — priced separately on a fixed-fee basis after scoping.
Late-record / rush fees
One late close per quarter is included. Beyond that, rush processing is +25% on the monthly fee, subject to availability.
Self-service or DIY tools
We don't offer a 'do-it-yourself' tier. Our entire model is the standard — there's no cheaper version of it.
Audit
We're not a registered audit firm. For audit-required clients (turnover £10.2m+), we partner with audit firms — handled separately.
If price is the deciding factor, we're not the right firm.
Our fees aren't the cheapest in the UK online accountancy market — they're not meant to be. They're priced to sustain the published service standards, the Annual Compliance Review, and the named accountant continuity that volume firms cannot replicate. If you're shopping on price alone, a volume firm like Crunch or TAP will serve you better. If you want the standards in writing — book a call.
Pricing — common questions.
Why don't you list exact prices?
Because every business is different. A 3-property landlord with personal-name ownership pays differently than a 10-property SPV. A £200k Ltd with one director needs different work to a £2m Ltd with three directors and payroll. We publish ranges that filter out wildly mismatched expectations; specifics are agreed in writing after a 20-minute discovery call.
Are there hidden fees?
No. The monthly fee covers all compliance filings, Compliance Vault™, the ACR, and the published service standards. One-off projects (R&D claims, exit advisory) are quoted separately on fixed fees. Late-close and rush-processing fees only apply if you breach the 7th-of-month standard repeatedly — one allowance per quarter is included.
How is the fee paid?
Monthly Direct Debit via Adfin. Fees are reviewed annually at your Annual Compliance Review; any changes are agreed in writing for the next 12 months. No hourly billing. No surprise charges.
Is there a minimum contract?
Our engagement letters are typically renewed annually at the ACR. Either party can disengage in writing with reasonable notice. There's no long-term lock-in — but we don't accept clients we don't expect to keep for several years.
Can I change service tier mid-year?
Yes. If your business grows, complexity increases, or you add services (e.g. payroll, VAT), we re-scope and agree the new fee in writing. Mid-year changes are processed at the next monthly billing cycle. The ACR is the formal annual re-confirmation point.
What if I want a one-off service only?
One-off engagements are available for some services (e.g. a single self-assessment return, an R&D claim, a company formation). For most things, our model is monthly compliance + advisory — one-offs are quoted on a fixed fee at the discovery call.
Do you offer discounts?
No. Our fees are the standard, and the standard is the product. Discount accountancy and the service standards we publish are structurally incompatible — we don't operate that model. If price is the deciding factor, we're not the right firm for you.
What if I'm not a fit at the discovery call?
We'll say so on the call — directly and respectfully. We'll usually suggest a type of firm that would be a better match for your situation. Saying 'no' is part of how the standard works for the clients who stay.
Want a specific fee for your business?
Book a 20-minute discovery call. We'll confirm fit and quote a specific monthly fee in writing — based on your actual scope, not a tier match.
No obligation. No form first. Just a direct conversation.
