Ting Accounting & Tax · How it works
Your books and tax, done — and checked by qualified people.
You snap the receipts and approve what matters. Ting AI does the first pass, a qualified Ting accountant checks every figure, and tax returns are prepared from your live books and submitted by licensed tax agents where the law requires.
How it works
Step by step.
- Step 1
Bring your records across
We take your existing books, customers and suppliers, clean them with Ting Data and set up your chart of accounts, bank accounts, VAT and tax settings. Nothing is lost in the move.
- Step 2
Snap receipts, upload invoices
Take a photo or upload the PDF. Ting AI reads the supplier, date, amount and VAT, converts foreign currency and suggests the category in seconds. An email confirmation isn't proof of purchase — upload the receipt or invoice itself.
- Step 3
Your accountant checks everything
A qualified Ting accountant reviews every entry and only asks you when something genuinely needs your input — one tap to answer.
- Step 4
Sales, bills and bank keep moving
Invoices go to your approver before they're sent, and credit control follows up what's overdue. Supplier bills are approved before they're posted, and your bank is reconciled.
- Step 5
Month-end, closed properly
Your accountant closes each month — accruals, prepayments, fixed assets — and sends your reports with a short note in plain English: what changed and what to do next.
- Step 6
Tax worked out, approved, filed
Tax is estimated from your live books all year. Before each deadline your accountant prepares the return, you check and approve it, and it's submitted — by a licensed local tax agent where the law requires.

What's included
Everything in one place, inside TingCloud.
One Ting Accounting area — My Books, Sales, Purchases, Bank, Reports and Close — and Ting Tax alongside it.
Receipts and bills
Photo or PDF in, read by AI, checked by your accountant, posted to the right account with the right VAT.
Sales invoicing and credit control
Quick invoice templates, approval before sending, reminders for overdue invoices, and debtor ageing you can see any time.
Purchases and payment runs
Supplier bills approved by the right person, then paid together in a payment run.
Bank reconciliation
Bank lines matched to invoices and bills, so your cash in TingCloud is the cash in the bank.
Reports and budget
Profit and loss, balance sheet and cash flow, plus your budget against actual for the month and the year to date.
Ask your numbers
Type a question in plain English and get a short answer with a chart, and where every number comes from.
Every deadline, every country
Company tax, VAT, annual accounts and personal tax deadlines side by side, so nothing slips between two countries.
VAT and company tax returns
Prepared from your books, approved by you, submitted on time — VAT returns through HMRC's Making Tax Digital in the UK.
Cross-border tax
Withholding tax on cross-border payments and transfer pricing between your companies, reviewed by a Ting tax professional when your arrangements need it.
Why you can rely on it
Checked, approved and on the record.
Qualified people sign it off
AI does the first pass so nothing waits in a pile; a qualified accountant checks every figure before it counts.
Licensed where the law requires
Tax returns are submitted by licensed local tax agents and partners in each country where that's required.
Nothing goes out without approval
Invoices, supplier bills and tax returns are approved by you, or the person you choose, before they're sent, posted or filed.
A full audit trail
Every entry, change and approval is recorded — who, what and when — and closed periods can't be changed by accident.
Confidential documents handled carefully
Ting Connect keeps conversations in one place; confidential documents are sent separately as password-protected email attachments, with the password shared another way.
Your data isn't used to train AI
Ting AI runs on a paid service that doesn't train on your data.
See your books and tax working, no sign-up needed.
Snap a sample receipt, watch it get checked, see your profit and budget live, then switch to the tax calendar and approve a return.
