FAQ
Frequently asked questions
Still unsure? Book a 20-minute intro call and ask us anything.
What does a bookkeeper actually do for my business?+
We record every transaction, reconcile your bank and card accounts, manage bills and invoices, and deliver monthly financial statements, so you always know where you stand and your accountant gets clean books at year end.
How much does outsourced bookkeeping cost?+
It depends on transaction volume and complexity. Most small businesses fit our Starter or Growth plans; see the pricing section for starting prices in your currency. We confirm a fixed monthly fee after the intro call, with no surprises.
Which software do you work with?+
QuickBooks Online, Xero, Zoho Books, MYOB, Sage, FreeAgent, Odoo and our own 4Alpha ERP. If you're not on any system yet, we'll recommend and set up the right one for your region.
My books are behind. Do I need to clean them up first?+
No. Catch-up and clean-up work is something we do every week. We'll scope it on the intro call and bring your books current before regular monthly service starts.
Will I work with the same bookkeeper every month?+
Yes. You get one dedicated bookkeeper who learns your business, backed by a reviewer who checks every month-end close.
How much of my time will this take?+
Usually 15–30 minutes a month: answering a few transaction questions and reviewing your reports. Everything else runs through read-only bank feeds and a shared document inbox.
Do you file my taxes?+
We prepare tax-ready books and the working papers for sales tax, VAT, GST or BAS. Filing is done by you, your CPA or registered agent, or a licensed partner we can introduce, depending on local rules.
Is my financial data secure?+
We work inside your cloud accounting software with individual, role-based logins and two-factor authentication. We never ask for your online-banking passwords, and access is removed the day an engagement ends.
