White-Label Bookkeeping for Firms

Monthly bookkeeping, reconciliations and close delivered under your firm's brand, so you can serve more clients without adding headcount.

Overview

How BATS handles white-label bookkeeping for firms

Monthly bookkeeping clients are steady revenue for an accounting firm, but they need consistent attention that is hard to staff. BATS handles the day-to-day bookkeeping for your clients under your name. We categorise, reconcile and close each month to your checklist, and send you clean files and review notes so you can focus on advisory work and tax.

We work with clients in all 50 states and Washington, D.C., so state-specific rules are covered whether you are in one state or several.

Who this is for

  • Accounting firms with a growing roster of monthly bookkeeping clients
  • Tax practices that want to offer bookkeeping without building a team

Ask a question

Which platforms do you work in?

QuickBooks Online, Xero and other common cloud platforms, plus tools your firm already uses such as receipt capture and bill pay apps.

Do we keep the client relationship?

Yes. You remain the firm of record and the client's main contact. We raise questions through you unless you prefer otherwise.

How quickly do you close each month?

We agree a close calendar with you during onboarding, based on how quickly bank statements and client information are available.

Can you take on clients with messy books?

Yes. We usually start with a cleanup project, then move the client onto the monthly routine.

How is pricing set?

Typically a monthly fee per client based on transaction volume and complexity, agreed in writing up front.

How do we keep quality consistent?

Each close follows your checklist, and a BATS reviewer checks the work before it reaches you. You see the same format for every client.

Can you work with our practice management system?

Yes. We can work inside tools such as Karbon, Canopy or TaxDome, using the tasks and deadlines you set.

What volume can you take on?

We scale with you. Most firms start with a group of clients and add more once the process is running smoothly.

Is client data kept confidential?

Yes. We sign confidentiality agreements, use only the access you provide and follow a written information security plan.

Who is the outsourcing service for?

CPA and EA firms, bookkeeping practices and businesses that need dependable accounting capacity without hiring more full-time staff.

How do you protect confidential data?

We sign confidentiality agreements, follow a written information security plan, use multi-factor authentication and work only through the role-based access you grant.

Can we start with a trial?

Yes. Most engagements begin with a pilot batch or trial month so you can check quality and communication before committing to more volume.
