KashFlow review

KashFlow lists entry pricing at £13.50, which covers 1 user on the starting tier. Payroll is included in that same figure, so there is no separate payroll purchase to add to it. For a small business owner, that entry price is the number to carry into the budget.

KashFlow has no free plan. The free trial runs for 14 days, which matches the common trial length across the brands ranked in this group. That gives a bookkeeper enough time to import a set of records and see how the accounts behave before a payment starts.

Payroll is included within the subscription, so it does not need a separate purchase or add-on. That matters for a small business where the same owner handles the books and the pay run. The entry price of £13.50 covers both sides of the work.

Bank feeds are included. Transactions arrive from the bank rather than being keyed in by hand, which cuts the typing on a small business's busiest days. The feed sits in the same subscription as the books, with payroll included as well, so there is no separate connection to buy.

Local compliance covers mtd vat, so a business filing VAT sits in the group KashFlow is built for. Owners trading in other markets should check whether the scheme matches their filing regime before they commit, since the trial of 14 days is the window for testing the fit.

Support runs on help centre, so most questions get answered from written material rather than a direct conversation. A help centre is common in this group, but a buyer who wants to pick up the phone mid-week should think about what else is on offer.

KashFlow runs on ios, so there is a mobile app for checking the books away from the desk. The same subscription carries bank feeds and included payroll, so a phone check does not mean working from a stripped-back view of the account.
