  • Monthly Profit & Loss, Balance Sheet and a short plain-English summary
  • A dedicated accountant who knows your business

Why Canadian businesses outsource bookkeeping to us

An in-house bookkeeper costs a full salary plus benefits and still needs cover for holidays. A local firm may bill by the hour. We offer a fixed monthly fee based on your transaction volume, so you know the cost in advance.

Because our team is in India, much of the work happens while you sleep. Send documents at the end of your day and they are often processed by the next morning in Canada.

Monthly Bookkeeping: common questions

How much does outsourced bookkeeping cost in Canada?

It depends mainly on how many transactions you have each month, how many bank accounts you have, and whether you need payroll or sales-tax filing. We quote a fixed monthly fee after a free consultation, so there are no surprise hourly bills.

Do you work with my accountant?

Yes. Many clients keep their existing CPA for year-end and tax. We keep the books clean all year and hand over a tidy year-end package, which usually lowers your CPA’s fee too.

Which accounting software do you use?

QuickBooks Online, Xero, Sage 50, Zoho Books, Wave and FreshBooks, plus Buildium for property managers and landlords. We work inside your file, so you own your data at all times.

How often will my books be updated?

Monthly by default, with a month-end close by an agreed date. Weekly or bi-weekly updates are available for businesses with high volume or tight cash flow.
