Sound familiar?

Doing your own books because no one knows eCommerce?

The bigger your online store gets, the harder the books become to manage on the side. Platform settlement reports that do not match your bank balance, a VAT threshold closer than you realised, a year-end return looming with records that need serious work first. None of it is catastrophic — but it does take longer the more you leave it.

  • Hours lost reconciling platform payouts against bank statements each month
  • No clear view of your tax position until the bill actually arrives
  • VAT registration threshold creeping closer without any real monitoring in place

What sorted looks like

Platform transactions reconciled monthly so your records are always current. Your tax liability visible throughout the year, not just at the end of it. VAT monitored and filed on time, with no threshold surprises.

  • Books reconciled every month — no year-end archaeology required
  • Tax position visible well before HMRC asks for payment
  • VAT threshold monitored — you will not miss the registration point
  • One fixed monthly cost, agreed upfront, that does not move

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 you get

What your monthly fee covers

Three things that keep your books current, your tax visible and your eCommerce admin manageable — for one fixed monthly fee.

01

Bookkeeping and Platform Reconciliation

Every transaction from Shopify, Amazon, WooCommerce or eBay reconciled monthly against your bank account. Your records are current, your numbers are accurate, and there is no scramble when the tax return comes around. You do not need to explain how your platform pays out.

Included as standard
02

VAT Returns and MTD Compliance

Quarterly VAT returns prepared and filed with HMRC, Making Tax Digital compliant as standard. Your registration threshold is monitored throughout the year — you will not cross it without knowing. Cross-border and digital sales are handled correctly.

Quarterly, fixed fee
03

Corporation Tax and Year-End Accounts

Annual accounts, CT600 and Companies House confirmation statement — all handled under one fixed fee. Your tax liability becomes visible months before the deadline, not weeks after it. No unexpected bill at the end of the year.

No extras, no surprises

Why Swift

Why eCommerce businesses choose Swift

There is no shortage of accountants who will take on an online retailer. Here is what is different about working with one who already knows how the platforms work.

🛒

No explaining how the platforms work

Shopify payouts, Amazon FBA fees, referral charges, settlement reports, eBay managed payments — you will not need to spend the first ten minutes of every call explaining your business model. We work with eCommerce sellers every day. Ask a question, get a useful answer.

💬

Replies the same day

Questions get answered the day you ask them. Not logged, not queued, not passed along. If you want to know whether a particular cost is deductible or whether you are approaching the VAT threshold, you will know before the end of the working 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 the questions you ask throughout the year. Your accounting costs are as predictable as any other fixed overhead.

Getting started

Up and running in four steps

Four steps from first enquiry to everything being handled. No complicated onboarding, no forms that require a specialist to complete.

1

Send your enquiry

Fill in the form on this page. Kieran reads every enquiry personally and responds the same day with a clear next step. No automated holding messages.

2

A short discovery call

Around twenty minutes to understand your setup, your platform or platforms, current software and what needs attention. By the end of the call you will know exactly what is covered and what it costs — nothing left vague.

3

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.

4

Ongoing — nothing falls through

Monthly bookkeeping, quarterly VAT, annual accounts and corporation tax — handled as a matter of course. Your tax position is visible well before it becomes urgent. Surprises are largely avoidable when the books are current.

Questions

Questions eCommerce businesses usually ask first

Yes — you will not need to walk us through settlement reports or explain why your bank balance and your platform dashboard show different numbers. FBA fees, referral charges, storage costs, Shopify gateway fees and managed payments are all categorised correctly from the start. It is not unfamiliar territory.
Once your books are current, your corporation tax liability becomes visible throughout the year rather than only at the end of it. Most clients have a reasonable working figure three to four months before the due date — long enough to plan ahead rather than just react.
It is why most people come to us. A catch-up takes a little longer at the start and may cost slightly more depending on how far back it goes — we will be upfront about that before anything is agreed. Once current, keeping it current is straightforward.
No. Month-to-month, with a month’s notice to cancel. We would rather keep clients because the service is worth it than because leaving is inconvenient.
