Bookkeeping
A uniquely different approach to accountancy services.
No more guesswork, silence, or surprise bills. At Prosper, we keep your books clear, up to date, and useful, not just compliant. Whether you’re a sole trader or a growing company, we’ll give you total clarity on your numbers and confidence in your next move.
What is Bookkeeping?
At Prosper, bookkeeping isn’t just a tick-box exercise, it’s a key part of helping your business stay in control.
We’ve worked with too many business owners who’ve said, “I don’t know what my accountant actually does for me” or “no one ever explains the numbers.” That’s not how we operate.
We give you accurate, up-to-date records, but more importantly, we help you understand them, so you can make confident, informed decisions.
No fluff. No guesswork. Just clear, useful bookkeeping that supports your goals.
We’ve also heard from one of our clients that they cancelled a service with a previous accountant, but their fees weren’t reduced!
That’s not the way Prosper Accountancy works.
Bookkeeping softwares we use
We work with all major bookkeeping systems, from QuickBooks to Sage, FreeAgent, and more, so whatever you’re using, we can support it.
But if you're looking for a recommendation, Xero is our favourite. It's clean, powerful, and gives you and us a real-time view of your finances.
We’ll meet you where you are and help you get the most out of whatever system works best for your business.
