How You Can Benefit From FreeAgent

Having everything neatly organised in one piece of software like FreeAgent can help small businesses oversee all of their accounting information. But, that’s not all! Contractors, freelancers and small businesses can benefit from:

Comprehensive Financial Dashboard

Users get an immediate overview of their business finances, including cashflow projections, profit and loss, tax timelines and invoice status from a single dashboard.
This helps business owners make informed decisions in real time.

Time-Saving Invoice Management

Create professional invoices with customisable templates, set up recurring invoices for regular clients, and receive automatic notifications when payments are overdue. The system also tracks when clients view invoices and can send automatic payment reminders, improving cash flow.

Simplified Expense Tracking

Capture receipts with the mobile app, categorise expenses automatically, and reconcile business spending with minimal effort. This streamlined approach helps maintain accurate records for tax purposes while reducing the administrative burden of expense management.

Bank Feed Integration

Direct connections with most UK banks allow the automatic importing of transactions, reducing manual data entry and the risk of errors. These secure connections keep your accounts up-to-date and make bank reconciliation a much simpler process.

How Businesses Can Use FreeAgent

We know every business has their own methods of bookkeeping and account management, but with FreeAgent, you can streamline your current accounting process enabling you to focus on other areas of your business. Here are a few examples of the ways FreeAgent accounting can be used in your business:

Daily Financial Management: Businesses can use FreeAgent to record income and expenses, reconcile bank transactions and maintain real-time visibility of their cash position. The intuitive interface makes it easy to stay on top of day-to-day finances without accounting expertise.

Client and Project Management: You can create contacts for clients, track project profitability, monitor billable hours and manage the complete invoicing cycle from estimate to payment. This end-to-end approach helps businesses maintain professional client relationships.

Tax Compliance and Submission: FreeAgent allows you to view your VAT returns, prepare for Self Assessment and estimate your corporation tax liabilities. With the tax timeline feature never miss another deadline.

Payroll Processing: Limited companies can run payroll for directors and employees, calculate PAYE and National Insurance contributions, and generate payslips within the system. This integration keeps all your financial information in one place and ensures payroll-related tax obligations are properly handled.

Financial Planning and Forecasting: Using the reporting tools, you can analyse performance, identify trends and make informed decisions about future investments or expansions. The cash flow projections are particularly valuable for anticipating potential shortfalls or opportunities.
