Running a small business can be incredibly rewarding, but managing your accounts often feels like a full-time job that you have little to no training for!
Whether you’re a sole trader, freelancer, or running a growing business, staying on top of your finances is essential. Fortunately, it doesn’t have to be overwhelming…
Introducing Xero Simple
Xero Simple is a streamlined, cost-effective accounting software designed specifically for small businesses. Available exclusively through accountants who are Xero partners, this software offers powerful features at a highly competitive price. As your local Xero partners in Telford, we’re here to help you make the most of it.
What is Xero Simple?
Xero Simple is a simplified version of Xero’s full accounting platform. It is ideal for startups, side businesses, sole traders, and small companies that don’t require every advanced feature but still want to stay compliant, organised, and in control of their finances.
Priced at just £7 + VAT per month, it’s a smart option for those moving away from manual spreadsheets or looking to reduce the costs of more complex software.
Because it is only available through Xero-partnered accountants, you also receive the benefit of local, expert support alongside your subscription.
What’s Included in Xero Simple?
Despite its modest price, Xero Simple comes with key features that make everyday accounting more manageable:
Connect Your Bank
Link your business bank account to Xero Simple to import transactions automatically. This improves the speed and accuracy of your reconciliations and provides greater visibility over your cash flow.
Raise Up to 10 Invoices Per Month
Ideal for service-based businesses or sole traders with a small client base. Create and send customised invoices that reflect your brand.
Hubdoc Included
A standout feature of Xero Simple is that it includes Hubdoc, a digital document capture tool. Most platforms charge extra for this functionality, but with Xero Simple, it is included in the monthly fee.
Accountant Access
We can access your accounts in real time, helping with bookkeeping, tax submissions, and compliance. You get expert guidance without having to manage everything on your own.
Why is Hubdoc a Major Advantage?
Hubdoc simplifies document management by letting you:
- Snap and store receipts instantly using your phone
- Extract key data such as date, supplier, and amount
- Attach documents to transactions in Xero for better organisation
Having Hubdoc included at no additional cost saves both time and money. On other platforms, similar tools might cost an additional £5 to £15 per month. With Xero Simple, it’s all part of the package.
This feature also helps ensure you are always prepared for tax submissions or HMRC audits.
Why Xero Simple Works for Small Businesses
- If you issue fewer than 10 invoices per month, Xero Simple covers all the essentials without any unnecessary extras.
- The mobile app allows you to raise invoices, reconcile transactions, and upload receipts from anywhere, whether you’re at home, on site, or between meetings.
- Xero Simple supports digital recordkeeping and makes it easier to prepare for MTD submissions, helping you stay compliant with HMRC requirements.
- For £7 + VAT per month, you get a robust set of tools and personalised support from your local accountant. It’s one of the best-value options available for small business accounting.
Who Can Use Xero Simple?
Xero Simple is ideal for:
- Sole traders or freelancers with a small client base
- Side hustlers managing part-time income
- Startups focused on keeping costs low
- Tradespeople and consultants needing mobile access
If your business requires more than 10 invoices per month, payroll, or VAT return capabilities, a more advanced Xero package may be more suitable. However, for many microbusinesses, Xero Simple offers everything needed to manage finances efficiently. As your business grows, you can simply upgrade the account to add more features without having to start from scratch.
Only Available Through Xero Partners

- Setting up your chart of accounts
- Connecting bank feeds
- Training on how to use Hubdoc
