Sound familiar?
More time on the admin than on the business?
Dropshipping looks lean until the accounting starts. Platform fees from multiple channels, supplier invoices that do not match payouts, a VAT threshold that creeps up quietly, and a tax return due on records that need work before they are usable. None of it is unusual — it just takes longer the more you leave it.
- Hours lost reconciling platform payouts, supplier costs and bank statements
- No clear picture of the tax bill until it is already due
- VAT threshold approaching without knowing exactly how close you are
What sorted looks like
Books reconciled every month so the numbers are always usable. Tax position visible throughout the year, not just when the deadline is close. VAT monitored so registration is a planned decision, not a surprise obligation.
- Books reconciled monthly — platform fees, supplier costs, everything matched
- Tax position clear well before HMRC asks for payment
- VAT threshold monitored — no unexpected registration obligations
- A fixed monthly cost that does not move regardless of how many questions you ask

What a guy!! Excellent, fast and reliable. Kieran has been very professional, caring, patient and efficient throughout the entire process of building our company. He was always one click away from every possible question we could throw at him.
What your monthly fee covers
Three things that keep your books accurate, your tax position clear and your dropshipping admin manageable — for one fixed monthly fee.
Bookkeeping and Monthly Reconciliation
Every platform fee, supplier payment and payout reconciled against your bank account each month. Your records are accurate and current, which means the tax return is straightforward when it comes around — and you always know where the business stands.
Included as standardVAT Returns and MTD Compliance
Quarterly VAT returns prepared and filed with HMRC, Making Tax Digital compliant as standard. Your VAT position is monitored throughout the year so you are not caught off-guard by a registration threshold or an unexpected liability.
Quarterly, fixed feeCorporation Tax and Annual Accounts
Year-end accounts, CT600 and Companies House confirmation statement — all handled in the fixed fee. Because the books are current throughout the year, your tax position is visible months before the deadline rather than days before it.

Why dropshipping businesses choose Swift
There is no shortage of accountants. Here is what is different about working with one who already understands how product-based online businesses are structured.
No explaining how dropshipping works
Platform fees, supplier invoices, multi-channel payouts, VAT on cross-border sales — you will not need to spend time explaining your business model before getting a useful answer. We work with eCommerce and product-based businesses every day. Ask a question, get an answer.
Replies the same day
Questions get answered the day you ask them. Not logged, not queued, not passed to a junior — answered. If you want to know whether a cost is deductible or whether you are close to the VAT threshold, you will know before the end of the day.
One price, clearly agreed
Your monthly fee is fixed and does not move. No hourly billing, no invoice that arrives larger than expected, no charge for asking questions. Your accounting costs are as predictable as your other fixed overheads — which is rather the point.
Up and running in four steps
Four steps from enquiry to everything being handled. No complicated onboarding, no forms that require a lawyer to understand.
Send your enquiry
Fill in the form on this page. Kieran reads every enquiry and responds the same day with a clear next step. No automated holding messages, no waiting days for a callback.
A short discovery call
Twenty minutes to understand your setup, current software and what needs sorting. At the end of the call you will know exactly what is covered, what it costs and what happens next.
We handle the setup
Your accounting software is connected, your records are brought up to date and everything is configured correctly. You do not need to do anything except confirm you want to proceed.
Ongoing — nothing falls through
Monthly bookkeeping, quarterly VAT, annual accounts and corporation tax — handled as a matter of course. Your tax position is visible throughout the year rather than at the end of it. Surprises are largely avoidable when the books are current.
“One of the friendliest accounting companies I’ve ever spoken to. I was fairly stressed about all of the big terms HMRC use, but Kieran explained everything in the best possible way, told me the price they’d charge after 5 minutes of speaking.”
