SaaS Bookkeeper

Your bookkeeping, handled in the cloud.

Most small business owners know their books should be more current than they are. Between reconciling bank feeds, chasing receipts and figuring out what the software is actually telling you, it takes more time than it should. Fixed monthly fee, ICAEW chartered, same-day replies.

  • Books reconciled monthly on Xero — no year-end catch-up
  • Tax position visible throughout the year, not just when it is due
  • HMRC correspondence handled before it reaches your inbox
  • A named, qualified bookkeeper — not a ticket queue

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

Sound familiar?

Doing your own books because it seemed easier?

Cloud bookkeeping software promised to make this straightforward. For most small businesses, it does not quite work out that way. Bank feeds drift, categories get guessed at, and at some point the records stop being reliable. The books are technically there — they just do not tell you anything useful. It is fixable. It just takes longer the more you leave it.

  • Bank feeds unreconciled for months, categories guessed rather than confirmed
  • No clear picture of what is owed in tax until the return is almost due
  • Hours spent maintaining software that is still not producing accurate records

What current books actually look like

Reconciled monthly, every transaction categorised correctly, your Xero file reflecting your business as it actually stands. Tax liability visible throughout the year rather than revealed at the end of it. Your bookkeeping off your plate — handled by someone who does this every day.

  • Bank feeds reconciled monthly — accurate records as a matter of course
  • Tax position clear well before HMRC asks for anything
  • Bookkeeping handled — your evenings less occupied with someone else’s job
  • One fixed monthly cost, agreed upfront, that does not change

Kieran and Swift have been an invaluable asset to me and my business. Kieran provided excellent 1:1 training for Quickbooks, which allowed me to gain confidence about my bookkeeping. More recently he has submitted my self-assessment tax return.

What you get

What your monthly fee covers

Three components that keep your records current, your tax position clear and the compliance side of things handled — all under one fixed monthly fee.

01

Monthly Bookkeeping on Xero

Every transaction categorised, every bank feed reconciled, every month. Your records are current and accurate — not a rough approximation of where things stand. When the tax return comes around, there is nothing to dig out.

Included as standard
02

VAT Returns and MTD Compliance

Quarterly VAT returns prepared and filed with HMRC as part of the service. Making Tax Digital compliant as standard, so there is nothing to reconfigure when the rules change. You will know the figure before it is submitted.

Quarterly, fixed fee
03

Year-End Accounts and Corporation Tax

Annual accounts, CT600 and Companies House confirmation statement all handled in one fixed fee. Because your books are current throughout the year, there are no surprises at the year-end — and your tax bill is not news when it arrives.

No extras, no surprises
What clients say

Small businesses across the UK trust Swift

Why Swift

Why small businesses choose Swift

There is no shortage of bookkeepers. Here is what tends to matter when you are actually working with one.

☁️

Xero Gold Partner, not a generalist

Swift is a Xero Gold Partner — which means the software is configured correctly from day one, not muddled through. Bank rules, chart of accounts, VAT codes — all set up to produce numbers you can actually rely on. You will not need to explain why the figures do not look right.

💬

Replies the same day

Questions get answered the day you ask them. Not logged, not queued, not passed to someone junior — answered. If you want to know whether a subscription cost is deductible or how to categorise a payment, you will know before the end of the day.

🔒

One price, clearly agreed

Your monthly fee is fixed before anything starts and does not change. No hourly billing, no end-of-month surprises, no invoice that arrives higher than expected. Your bookkeeping costs are as predictable as any other fixed overhead.

Getting started

Up and running in four steps

From enquiry to everything being handled takes a matter of days. No complicated onboarding, no forms that require a lawyer to read.

1

Send your enquiry

Fill in the short form on this page. Kieran reads every enquiry and responds the same day with a clear next step. No automated holding messages, no wait for an available slot.

2

A short discovery call

Around twenty minutes to understand your business, your current software and what needs sorting. By the end of the call you will know exactly what is covered and what it costs — no open questions left hanging.

3

We handle the setup

Your Xero file is connected, your records are brought up to date and everything is configured correctly. You confirm you want to proceed. That is largely the extent of your involvement at this stage.

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 rather than revealed at the end. Surprises are largely avoidable when the books are current.

Questions

Questions most people ask first

Xero is our primary platform and Swift is a Xero Gold Partner. Your file is configured correctly at the start — bank feeds connected, chart of accounts set up, VAT codes correct. Monthly reconciliation is handled as part of the service. You do not need to do anything to keep it current.
Once your books are current, your tax liability becomes visible throughout the year rather than appearing at the end of it. Most clients have a reasonable figure in mind three to four months before payment is due — long enough to plan, rather than just react.
It is the situation most people arrive in. Getting up to date takes a little longer at the start and may cost slightly more — we will tell you that upfront, 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 keeping than because leaving is inconvenient.
