Fixed fees, quoted before you pay

Most of what we do is one-off work on a fixed fee. The filings that recur every year are available on a monthly plan instead, so you stop having to remember them. Both are below.

Questions

Frequently asked questions

Do I have to be on a plan?

No. Every service on this page can be bought once, on a fixed fee. Plans exist because the annual filings recur forever, and buying them one at a time means remembering them one at a time.

Are statutory fees included?

CIPC, SARS and other statutory fees are passed through at exactly what those bodies charge. Our fee is for the work and the responsibility.

Why is monthly more expensive than annual?

Compliance Essentials is R1,800 a year or R199 a month. Monthly billing costs more to administer, so annual is priced lower for the same work.

What if I am already behind on filings?

Start with Deregistration Rescue from R2,990 plus R550 per outstanding year. Run the free check first so you know what you are dealing with.

Can I move between plans?

Yes. Most companies start on Compliance Essentials and move up when they begin trading properly or register for VAT. Tell us and we move you from the next billing cycle.

Are these prices final?

Fixed-fee services are the price shown. Accounting tiers start from the figure shown, because a business processing 40 invoices a month and one processing 400 are not the same job.

Not sure what you need?

Tell us where the business is and we will tell you what actually applies, what it costs and how long it takes, before you pay anything.
