How it works

Bookkeeping in three steps

No accounting jargon and no typing in every transaction. Upload what you already have and GetAccountED does the rest; you just check and confirm.

Snap your slips

Take a photo of a till slip, fuel slip or supplier invoice, or upload the PDF. It's read in seconds: supplier, date, amount, VAT and the right expense account, ready for you to confirm.

Upload your bank statement

Every line is matched to your invoices, bills and slips, customer payments are marked paid, and bank charges are filed for you. Anything missing a slip is flagged.

Close the month

When every line is reconciled and every slip is in, close the month with one click. Your accountant can review and sign it off, and nothing changes in a closed month after that.

Features

Everything a small business needs to run its finances

A proper double-entry accounting system underneath, with the work done for you on top.

Invoices, quotes & statements

Invoices and quotes with your own logo and numbering, recurring invoices, credit notes and customer statements. Clients can pay online from a secure link. Prices can include VAT or have it added.

Automatic slip capture

Photos or PDFs of receipts and supplier invoices are read automatically. It checks whether a slip is a valid tax invoice before you claim the VAT, and catches duplicates.

Bank reconciliation

Upload statements from any South African bank. Customer payments are matched by invoice number and name, even when one payment covers several invoices.

VAT201 & SARS figures

VAT201 preparation, PAYE, UIF and SDL totals, and company and provisional tax estimates using the 2026/27 SARS rates, ready for you or your accountant to submit on eFiling.

Payroll

Pay runs with PAYE from the official SARS tables, UIF and SDL, payslips, and everything posted to your books automatically.

Reports your accountant asks for

Profit and loss, balance sheet, cash flow, trial balance, aged debtors and creditors, and budget vs actual, always up to date and exportable.

Month-end close & accountant access

A checklist shows what's still outstanding. Invite your accountant or bookkeeper with their own login; give staff expense capture only.

Vehicle logbook

Every fuel slip goes into a logbook per vehicle: litres, kilometres, fuel use and cost per km, the starting point for a SARS travel claim.

Stan the Accountant

Your AI accountant reads your live books and answers in plain language: what's owed, what to claim, when SARS is due. Tax answers come with the Act and section, checked against our South African tax law library.

SARS & tax

Pay the tax you owe, and not a rand more

GetAccountED checks your own books against SARS rules and tells you, in plain language, where you could be saving or where you're at risk.

  • Unclaimed VAT. Spots expenses recorded without VAT where a valid tax invoice would let you claim it back.
  • Small business corporation rates. Shows what you'd save at SBC rates (0% on the first R99 000) if you qualify.
  • VAT registration. Tracks your turnover against the R2.3 million compulsory and R120 000 voluntary thresholds.
  • Provisional tax. Estimates each payment and its due date so there are no penalties.
  • Missing slips. Lists payments SARS could query because there's no slip or invoice.

Illustration only. Guidance from your own books for you and your accountant, not tax advice.

Slips app

Snap it at the till. It's in your books before you're at the car.

The free Slips app puts a camera button on your phone's home screen. Take a photo of the slip and GetAccountED reads it and files it under the right account. Tap save and it's booked.

  • Fuel slips fill your vehicle log. The app asks for the odometer reading, so your SARS logbook keeps itself.
  • Right account, right VAT. Supplier, date, total and VAT are read for you, and VAT is only claimed if you're registered.
  • Your whole team can use it. Every login can send in slips, so nothing sits in a wallet until month-end.
  • No app store needed. It installs straight from your phone's browser on iPhone and Android, and is included in every plan.

For accounting practices

Run every client's books from one screen

GetAccountED for practices gives your firm one dashboard over all your clients. Your clients snap their own slips and upload their own statements, and you do the accounting.

  • Today's priorities. Each morning, see which clients need you first: VAT and SARS exposure, reviews waiting, unreconciled bank lines and missing slips.
  • Compliance calendar. VAT, EMP201, provisional tax, CIPC annual returns, COIDA and B-BBEE affidavits, worked out from each client's details.
  • VAT201 and EMP201 packs. The figures ready to submit, per client, per period.
  • One click into any client's books. Correct or void entries, sign off month-ends, and switch VAT on or off for the client.
  • Add a client in seconds. Paste an email signature, CIPC extract or VAT letter and the details fill themselves in.
  • Your team, your rules. Choose which clients each staff member can open.
  • Stan the Accountant for the whole practice. Ask about any client or any tax question.

FAQ

Questions, answered

Which banks does GetAccountED work with?

Any South African bank. Upload your statement as a PDF, a photo, or the export from your online banking (CSV, OFX, QIF or Excel) and GetAccountED reads it and matches every line to your invoices, bills and slips.

Do the prices include VAT?

Yes. Rand prices are per month and include VAT. There's no setup fee and you can cancel at any time.

How does the free trial work?

You get 14 days of GetAccountED with no card needed, including 20 slips or invoices read automatically and 2 bank statements. Subscribe at any time to keep going; everything you captured stays.

Can my accountant work in my books?

Yes. On the Full plan you can invite your accountant or bookkeeper with their own login, and if your accountant uses GetAccountED for practices they can open your books from their own dashboard. You choose exactly what each staff login can see.

Does GetAccountED file my VAT or tax returns with SARS?

GetAccountED prepares the figures: a VAT201 report, PAYE, UIF and SDL totals, and company and provisional tax estimates using the 2026/27 SARS rates. You or your accountant submit them on SARS eFiling.

What's the difference between Lite and Full?

Lite covers everyday money: invoices, quotes, expenses with slip capture and bank reconciliation. Full adds the general ledger, all financial reports, VAT201, payroll, the SARS tax tools, month-end close and accountant access.

Can I bring my existing books across?

Yes. You can import your chart of accounts from a CSV file, enter opening balances, and upload past bank statements. Our support team can help you move over.

Does it work on my phone?

Yes. GetAccountED works in any phone browser, and the free Slips app puts a camera button on your home screen: snap a slip and it's in your books. Open getaccounted.co.za/admin/slips on your phone, sign in, then tap Install app (Android) or Share → Add to Home Screen (iPhone). No app store needed.

My business isn't VAT registered. Can I still use it?

Yes. Switch VAT off under Settings (or ask your accountant to). Your invoices then carry no VAT and slips are booked at their full amount, because you can't claim VAT back. GetAccountED also watches your turnover and tells you when you're nearing the R2.3 million compulsory registration threshold.

I'm an accountant. Can I run my clients on GetAccountED?

Yes. GetAccountED for practices is R299 a month for your practice plus R99 per active client, VAT included. You get one dashboard over all your clients, a compliance calendar, VAT201 and EMP201 packs, and team access per client. See how it works.
