FreeAgent is an online money management and accounting tool intended for small businesses. The software is perfect for freelancers, contractors and consultants. Whether you are just getting started, or are already in business, using FreeAgent can save you time.
The stand alone version is £34.80 (£29 + VAT) per month but nothing for K&B clients on our monthly packages. Access to your own FreeAgent account is included in your fee, at no extra cost.
FreeAgent uses electronic statement data to help you track money in and out of your business. It accepts electronic statements in one of three formats: OFX (sometimes called MS Money/Quickbooks), QIF and many CSV formats.
If your data is in a format that isn’t currently supported, please get in contact with your dedicated K&B accountant.
All information which passes between FreeAgent’s servers and your computer is encrypted using a technology called Secure Sockets Layer (SSL), the same technology that banks use to protect data.
FreeAgent own their own hardware and host FreeAgent dedicated servers with The Bunker, one of the most secure hosting providers in the world.
FreeAgent’s Tier 3 data centres are connected to the internet via multiple network providers ensuring a fully redundant network and 100% network uptime.
Of course, you own your data. You can export all of your FreeAgent data at any time in Excel Spreadsheet (XLS) format, and analyse it or back it up yourself, as you see fit.
K&B Accountancy Group and FreeAgent take your privacy very seriously.
FreeAgent’s Privacy Policy has the full details, but in a nutshell FreeAgent is built around the principle that only you (or people you give login access to) can access your data. FreeAgent undertake never to reveal any data to anyone, unless required to do so by law.
No, FreeAgent can be transferred to our dashboard simply by emailing FreeAgent. All they require is an email from you to say that you are switching, and FreeAgent will contact both accountants. Once confirmed, your accounts records will switch to us.
Although FreeAgent is fully responsive and work really well with mobile devices, it also has an App for iOS and Android, available on App Store or Google Play to download for free.
