Frequently asked questions
How does pricing work?
- How is the pricing determined?
Our pricing is based on a flat monthly fee that is customized according to the number of transactions processed and the number of accounts that need to be reconciled each month. - Can I change my pricing plan if my transaction volume changes
Yes, our service is flexible. If your transaction volume or the number of accounts changes, your pricing can be adjusted accordingly. Just let us know, and we’ll update your plan.
- Are there any additional fees I should be aware of?
Our pricing is straightforward with no hidden fees. However, if you have special requirements outside of standard bookkeeping services, such as forensic accounting or tax preparation, there may be additional charges. - How often will I be billed?

What software do you use for bookkeeping?
We use QuickBooks Online to complete your books. You won’t need any other software to work with QuickBooks—we do everything within the platform. Every report accessible in QuickBooks can be exported to an Excel file for easy sharing with anyone from business partners to accountants.
What does my bookkeeper do?
Your bookkeeper reconciles your accounts, categorizes your transactions, and produces your financial statements. They also make adjustments to your books to ensure they’re tax-compliant. Occasionally your bookkeeper might need your input on things like categorizing a transaction properly, but we try our best to make bookkeeping as hands-off as possible for you.
You can also book a call with your bookkeeper (or send them a message) whenever you’d like. There’s no extra fee or hourly charges for support—we’re always happy to nerd out about bookkeeping and your financial statements.

Do you file our taxes?
No, our bookkeeping service does not file taxes. However, we can refer you to a trusted CPA firm that specializes in tax preparation and filing. Our role is to ensure your financial records are accurate and up-to-date, which makes the tax filing process smoother with a CPA.
So how do I decide if I need a bookkeeper or an accountant?
Bookkeepers focus on recording day-to-day transactions like invoices, payments, and receivables. Accountants, particularly CPAs, offer more comprehensive financial expertise. As your business grows, you’ll need this expertise for tasks like managing financial statements, creating budgets, developing forecasts, and preparing reports for your board. When you’re raising capital or considering an acquisition, accountants become essential in ensuring your financials are accurate and ready for due diligence, helping you navigate complex financial processes with confidence.
With us you get both, bookkeepers will do your day-to-day transactions while all month end packages and any complex transactions are reviewed by a CPA ensuring that you get the most cost effective solution when funding is needed elsewhere.
