Sound familiar?
Books behind, tax bill unknown, VAT threshold creeping closer?
The bigger an ecommerce store gets, the more the admin multiplies. Marketplace payouts that do not reconcile neatly, VAT obligations that arrive faster than expected, a tax return due with records that need serious work first. None of it is unusual. It is solvable — it just takes longer the more you leave it.
- Hours lost trying to reconcile marketplace payouts against bank statements
- No clear view of the tax bill until HMRC asks for payment
- VAT threshold approaching without knowing how close it actually is
What sorted looks like
Marketplace transactions reconciled monthly, so nothing piles up. Tax position visible throughout the year, not just when the return is due. VAT monitored and filed quarterly — you will not cross the threshold without knowing about it first.
- Marketplace payouts reconciled monthly — no year-end archaeology
- Tax position visible 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

We work with online sellers across the UK, including Cornwall. Here are two clients who came to us with the same admin headaches you are probably carrying now.
Kieran at Swift is super! He helped and bailed me out of the last minute panic of tax and Companies House returns. He’s on the ball, quick at responding, patient with me and got the job done stress free, plus his rates are very competitive.
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.

Why ecommerce sellers choose Swift
There is no shortage of accountants. Here is what is different about working with one who already understands how ecommerce platforms, marketplaces and VAT on digital sales actually work.
No explaining how ecommerce works
Platform fees, settlement reports, marketplace refunds, cross-border VAT — you will not spend ten minutes explaining your business model before getting a useful answer. We work with Shopify, Amazon, WooCommerce and eBay sellers regularly. 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 particular cost is deductible, 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 surprises, no invoice that arrives larger than expected. Your accounting costs are as predictable as your other fixed overheads.
Up and running in four steps
Four steps from enquiry to everything being handled. No complicated onboarding, no forms that require a lawyer to decode.
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 for a callback slot.
A short discovery call
Around twenty minutes to understand your setup, current software and what needs sorting. By 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, 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 tax return — handled as a matter of course. You will know your tax position well before it becomes urgent. Surprises are largely avoidable when the books are current.
“Being a self employed stone mason sadly paper work is not my strong suit. And after a late cancellation from my normal accountant I had to find help. With late notice I contacted swift accounting and book keeping. Kieran was the person assigned to me to help with my tax return and at the start of Jan not much time to file my return before potential fines incurred. He went above an beyond to help good communication through emails an working even on a Saturday night to complete my return. I cannot thank him enough he made the process super easy an relaxed I will 100% be using them again in the future. Thank you.”
