"We had over 9 months of unreconciled transactions when we brought on our bookkeeper VA through . She cleaned everything up in under a month, organised our Xero from scratch, and now delivers a clean month-end report every single time. We've not had a single issue going into tax season since. Best decision we made for the business."

Frequently
Asked Questions

Everything you need to know before hiring a Virtual Bookkeeper VA through . Still have questions? Our team is happy to help.

Ask Us Anything

What's the difference between a bookkeeper VA and an accountant VA?

A bookkeeper VA focuses on the day-to-day recording and organisation of your financial transactions — entering data, reconciling accounts, managing invoices, and keeping your records clean and up to date. An accountant VA typically handles higher-level tasks such as financial analysis, tax preparation, budgeting, and strategic reporting. Many businesses use a bookkeeper VA for daily operations and bring in an accountant (or their CPA) for year-end and tax work. We offer both.

How quickly can my Bookkeeper VA get started?

Most clients are matched and working with their VA within 48 hours. We shortlist 2–3 vetted candidates based on your requirements, you choose who you want to work with, and your VA is onboarded and ready to start immediately. We handle all the paperwork, NDAs, and briefing so you don't have to.

Can my VA handle bookkeeping backlog or a messy chart of accounts?

Absolutely. Many of our clients come to us with months — even years — of unreconciled transactions, messy categorisation, or an outdated chart of accounts. Our bookkeeper VAs are experienced in cleanup projects and can systematically clear backlogs, restructure your chart of accounts, and get your books into a clean, audit-ready state before maintaining them going forward.

What software will my Bookkeeper VA use?

We match your VA to the tools you already use. Our bookkeeper VAs are proficient in QuickBooks Online, QuickBooks Desktop, Xero, FreshBooks, Wave, Sage, Zoho Books, NetSuite, Bill.com, A2X, Dext, Hubdoc, Expensify, and more. Simply tell us your stack when you submit your requirements and we'll ensure your VA is already experienced with it — no learning curve on your time.

Is my financial data secure with a remote bookkeeper?

Yes. Every VA signs a comprehensive NDA before work begins. We operate under GDPR, CCPA, and ISO-compliant data handling practices. Your VA works in a secure, monitored environment and we recommend setting role-based access in your accounting software — for example, bookkeeper-level access in QuickBooks rather than admin — which we can guide you through before day one.

Will my VA work in my time zone?

Yes. We specifically match your VA to your preferred working hours — EST, PST, GMT, AEST, or any other zone your business operates in. Your VA will be available and responsive during your core hours, attend team calls if needed, and send daily updates at the end of each working day.

What if my Bookkeeper VA isn't working out?

We offer a free replacement guarantee — no questions asked. If at any point you feel your VA isn't the right fit, simply let your dedicated account manager know and we will source and onboard a replacement within 24–48 hours at no extra cost. We stand behind every placement we make.

Is there a minimum contract or lock-in period?

No. We work on a simple month-to-month basis. You can pause, scale up, or cancel with 30 days' notice — no penalties, no long-term obligation. Most of our clients stay with us long-term because of the quality of service, not because they have to.

Can my VA liaise with my CPA or accountant directly?

Yes — and many clients find this one of the biggest time-savers. Your bookkeeper VA can communicate directly with your CPA, respond to information requests, prepare year-end workpapers, and coordinate everything needed for tax filing. This significantly reduces the time your CPA spends (and charges) gathering information.

How much can I save compared to hiring a local bookkeeper?

A full-time in-house bookkeeper in the USA or UK typically costs $45,000–$65,000 per year in salary, plus benefits, payroll taxes, equipment, and office space. Our full-time bookkeeper VAs deliver the same quality — often with more consistency and accountability — at 60–70% less. You also eliminate recruitment costs and the risk of staff turnover.
