Overview
Clear Books is a UK online accounting product that prices its plans by business type, including sole traders, landlords, limited companies, partnerships and charities[10].
Sole traders who only need Making Tax Digital submissions can use Sole Trader Free at £0, or Sole Trader at £5 a month for bank feeds, invoicing and receipt scanning; VAT-registered sole traders use Sole Trader Plus at £15 a month[10]. UK landlords have Property Free and Property (£5 a month) plans, including for foreign property[10]. Limited companies, partnerships and charities choose Small at £16 a month, Medium at £34 for businesses filing VAT or CIS returns, or Large at £44 for projects, multi-currency and fixed assets[10].
All plans have no setup fees, can be cancelled at any time, include UK support and come with a 30-day free trial; accountants can join a free partner programme[10]. Like FreeAgent, Clear Books is designed exclusively for UK tax rules.
