Accounting software that does the whole job, not just the trial balance.
Built by a Professional Accountant (SA) for South African small businesses. Free for every Filling the GAAP accounting or tax client.
The gap in small-business software.
Most accounting software is built for a global market and then localised with a VAT rate. It stops at a trial balance, and anything South African, such as provisional tax, a public interest score or a set of IFRS for SMEs statements, is either missing or an extra you pay an accountant for.
FTG Books starts from the compliance an owner-managed South African company actually faces and works backwards. If the law says you may compile your own financial statements, the software should let you.
Everything a small business needs. Nothing it doesn't.
Bank imports and reconciliation
Import statements from any South African bank, match transactions with rules, and reconcile in minutes rather than hours.
Invoicing and quotes
Branded quotes and invoices, recurring billing, customer statements and automatic payment reminders.
VAT that adds up
VAT201 figures by tax period, input and output reconciliation, and a clear audit trail for SARS verifications.
Provisional tax estimates
A running estimate of taxable income and the next IRP6 payment so August and February never come as a shock.
Automatic PI score
Your public interest score is calculated from your own employee, turnover, liability and shareholder data, with the assurance requirement spelled out.
Annual financial statements
When you qualify, compile IFRS for SMEs compliant statements straight from your trial balance, ready for board approval and CIPC filing.
Document vault
Attach source documents to transactions and keep the five-year record SARS requires in one place.
