FAQs
Common questions about our services
What does a small business accountant actually do at StayWise?
Your accountant manages your bookkeeping, VAT, year-end accounts and tax filings in one place — so you always have one person who knows your numbers, not a different contact for every task.
Do you work with limited companies as well as sole traders?
Yes. We support limited companies, sole traders and growing startups, with services scoped to your company structure.
Is bookkeeping included, or is it a separate service?
Bookkeeping and accounting are handled together for most clients — monthly reconciliation and VAT are included in the Bookkeeping service, and roll straight into your year-end accounts.
Can I switch to StayWise from my current accountant?
Yes — after your free consultation, we request professional clearance from your current provider, collect your records, and get you set up with no gap in your filings.
Do I need an accountant if I'm just forming a company?
It helps from day one. Setting your company up correctly with Companies House and HMRC avoids costly corrections later — our Company Formation Plan and Bookkeeping service are designed to hand straight over to each other.
How much does a small business accountant cost?
Our plans start from £70/month with no lock-in. Your exact price depends on transaction volume and the services you need — confirmed free during your consultation.
