Frequently Asked Questions
Technically, a jeweller can perform their own accounting. There is a lot of work that goes into performing an ongoing accountancy service however, so it is very common for a jeweller to appoint an accountancy provider. Choosing an accountant means that your accountancy provider will perform your accounting, bookkeeping, payroll, and tax services for you monthly, and a good accountant also provides ongoing updates, support, and guidance. At QAccounting, we offer a wide array of accounting services for jewellers, all paid for via transparent monthly fees at whatever level of service you require.

This question has a very easy answer, no! We do not tie our clients into lengthy contracts. We have a brief 3-month tie in period where we ask that you remain a client, but after that there are no exit fees or annual contract binding you to us. We believe that a relationship between a jeweller and its accountant should be built on trust, and we want that to trust to be genuine.
Absolutely not! If you choose to leave QAccounting following the initial 3-month period, there are no fees whatsoever for leaving us. We charge a flat fixed monthly fee, so there is no reason for you to have to pay an exit fee should you wish to take your accounting elsewhere. We have a fantastic retention rate with our clients however, so we hope that it never comes to that!

Our switching team will liaise with your previous accountant and yourself to ensure that we have all relevant company information in place to take over as your accounting provider.
