Why is everyone going paperless?

Does your wallet look like a filing cabinet? Do you find it hard to manage your paper receipts and bills, lose them and forget to claim them back?

At iKeep, we pride ourselves on being a paperless office! We have greatly reduced and practically eliminated the use of paper through this fantastic app called Receipt Bank.

But how is it possible? All you have to do is take a photo of your receipt or bill using the smartphone app. The software then takes key data from your receipt / bill including the supplier, date, invoice number, currency and the amount and send’s the information to Xero. No more collecting paper receipts and bills, and no more losing them!

Why should you get on board? Our question to you is why you wouldn’t!

Our Journey to Xero Platinum Partner

The journey to a Xero Platinum Partner is not a journey to be taken lightly. To put it in perspective, it's a journey that many Accounting and Bookkeeping firms aspire to, but few actually make it. As of writing this, there are only 6 bookkeeping businesses in Australia that have achieved this coveted status, and iKeep achieved this in less than 2 years. The criteria that Xero Partners are assessed on takes into account: 1.       How many Xero Certified Advisors we have in our business, and 2.       How many clients we are working on. This means that we need to have a balance between our internal training whilst maintaining and outward focus and delivering what our clients want. As a small business owner, one of the most important decisions you can make is hiring the right bookkeeper. As well as being experienced, your bookkeeper needs to be highly personable and easy for you to relate to. When I thought through, “What do we do differently to other firms? What helped th

This ruling has significant implications for both employers and employees in New South Wales. Employers will now need to take into account an employee’s entire period of continuous service, regardless of where they have worked, when calculating their long service leave entitlement. This m
