BrightBooks Features

Boost your invoicing and payments capabilities. Make sure you’re paid on time, every time.

Invite your bookkeeper or accountant

Say goodbye to emailing spreadsheets. With a cloud bookkeeping software, you can save time by sharing access with your accountant or bookkeeper. They’ll be able to work directly in your books, view, manage, and advise when needed.

Invoicing on-the-go

Get paid on time, every time. Sharpen up your billing process by using customisable templates, creating a product catalogue, and by quickly converting quotes and orders to invoices. Save even more time by setting up recurring invoices and getting paid online. With the BrightBooks app, you maintain full control of invoicing while you work from anywhere.

Invoicing on-the-go

Streamline payments

Better manage how you handle your payments. Keep on top of payments by viewing vendors and expenses on the one screen, view the payments status, and set up recurring payments. Suppliers can be paid quicker by generating SEPA files and multiple bills can be paid with just the one payment transaction. 

Streamline payments

Bank reconciliation

Manage your banking with ease by connecting your bank accounts to BrightBooks. Set up bank feeds for both UK and ROI banks to receive automatic updates of bank transactions, giving you a live view of your cashflow. Save time on month-end or year-end reconciliations with the ability to reconcile a large number of transactions quickly and easily.

Everything is automatically calculated, depending on the VAT scheme and rates chosen. Once you have completed the VAT return, you have the option to save it in a PDF or CSV format, print and submit the values to Revenue. You can also record the payment or refund of VAT.
