Ecommerce Accounting Services

Your eCommerce accounts, handled.

Most eCommerce sellers reach a point where the books take longer than the selling. Platform fees, marketplace payouts, VAT thresholds, year-end returns — the admin compounds as the business grows. Fixed monthly fee, ICAEW chartered, same-day replies.

  • Clean, reconciled books every month — no year-end scramble
  • Your tax position visible throughout the year, not just when the bill arrives
  • VAT returns and HMRC correspondence handled — less of that landing on your desk
  • An accountant who already knows how eCommerce platforms pay out

No long-term contract. If it is not working after three months, you leave with clean books and nothing owed.

Fast Work at Short Notice, Repeatedly

“Great work by Kieran sorting out my business accounts really fast and at short notice on multiple occasions.”

Sound familiar?

More platforms. More complexity. Less time.

The more channels you sell on, the harder the reconciliation gets. Payouts that do not obviously match what sold, marketplace fees buried in settlement reports, a VAT threshold that crept past before you noticed, and a year-end return with records that need serious attention. None of it is unusual — it is just considerably easier to manage when someone is on top of it monthly rather than annually.

  • Hours lost reconciling platform payouts against actual bank receipts
  • No clear view of tax position until the bill is already imminent
  • VAT obligations that moved while you were focused on the business

What sorted looks like

Every payout reconciled and categorised monthly. Your tax liability visible throughout the year so there are no surprises in January. VAT returns filed on time, MTD compliant, and the threshold monitored so you are never caught off guard.

  • Books reconciled monthly — no year-end archaeology required
  • Tax position clear well before HMRC sends the reminder
  • VAT threshold monitored — you will not miss a registration obligation
  • One fixed monthly cost that does not change regardless of how many questions you ask

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 core areas that keep your books clean, your tax position visible and your eCommerce admin manageable — for one fixed monthly fee that does not move.

01

Bookkeeping and Platform Reconciliation

Every payout, fee, refund and charge across your sales platforms reconciled monthly against your bank account. Your records are accurate and current throughout the year — no scramble when the tax return comes around and no year-end surprises that could have been caught earlier.

Included as standard
02

VAT Returns and MTD Compliance

Quarterly VAT returns prepared and filed with HMRC, Making Tax Digital compliant as standard. Your VAT threshold is monitored so you know well in advance if registration is approaching — not after the fact. Cross-border and marketplace VAT handled as part of the same process.

Quarterly, fixed fee
03

Corporation Tax and Year-End Accounts

Annual accounts, CT600 and Companies House filings all handled within one fixed fee. Because the books are kept current throughout the year, the year-end process is considerably more straightforward — and your tax liability is visible well before it is due.

No extras, no surprises

Why Swift

Why eCommerce sellers choose Swift

There is no shortage of accountants. Here is what is different about working with one who already understands how online retail actually works.

🛒

No explaining how your platform works

FBA fees, referral charges, settlement reports, Shopify payouts, eBay final value fees — you will not need to spend the first twenty minutes of every call explaining your business model before getting a useful answer. We work with eCommerce sellers every day. The complexity you think is unusual largely is not.

💬

Questions answered the same day

Ask whether a software subscription is deductible, whether you are close to the VAT threshold, or what your estimated tax bill is — and you will have an answer before the end of the day. Not logged, not queued, not passed along. It is consistently the thing clients mention most.

🔒

One fixed price, clearly agreed

Your monthly fee is set at the start and does not change. No hourly billing, no invoice that arrives larger than expected, no charge for asking questions. Your accounting costs are as predictable as any other fixed overhead — which is how it should work.

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 lawyer to interpret.

1

Send your enquiry

Fill in the form on this page. Kieran reads every enquiry directly and responds the same day with a clear next step. No automated holding messages, no waiting to be assigned to someone.

2

A short discovery call

Around twenty minutes to understand your platforms, current setup and what needs sorting. By the end of the call you will know exactly what is covered and what the fixed monthly fee is — no vague quotes to follow up on.

3

We handle the setup

Your accounting software is connected, your records are brought up to date and everything is configured correctly. If there is a backlog to catch up on, that is discussed and priced upfront. You confirm you want to proceed and we take it from there.

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 throughout the year, not just when the deadline is close. Surprises are largely avoidable when the books are current.

Questions

Questions eCommerce sellers usually ask first

Yes — settlement reports, FBA fees, referral charges, storage costs, cross-border VAT on EU sales — these are not unusual complexity for us. You will not need to explain the mechanics of how your platform pays out before getting a useful answer. It is what we work with day to day.
Once your books are current and kept up to date monthly, your tax liability becomes visible throughout the year rather than only at year-end. Most clients have a reasonable working figure three to four months before the payment deadline — long enough to plan, not just react.
It is why most people come to us. Catching up takes a little more time at the start and may cost slightly more than the ongoing monthly fee — we will tell you the figure upfront, before you commit to anything. 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.
