Traditional bookkeeping
- processing the administration;
- periodic tax returns;
- year-end work;
- questions about the administration.
Managed Finance
From well-kept bookkeeping to structural financial insight. You decide how much you keep in your own hands and how much you leave to Digikwal.
Managed Finance from €295 per month, excluding VAT.
Three service levels
Amounts per month, excluding VAT.
Sound familiar?
The bookkeeping itself is often not the biggest job. The work sits in everything around it, and that usually stays with the owner or the board.
If you only want to outsource the bookkeeping and the tax returns, a traditional bookkeeper is an excellent choice. Managed Finance is meant for organizations that, depending on the package they choose, want more of the finance operation carried out for them.
The difference
Managed Finance Essentials deliberately sits close to regular bookkeeping services. The higher packages go further: we also monitor the finance processes, make the numbers visible on a regular basis, track budgets, bring cash flow into view and take care of reporting.
Do you have a simple administration and are you happy with your current bookkeeper?
Then switching may not be necessary. We would rather say so honestly than sell you something you do not need.
Packages
You buy a fixed service level with agreed work, not a bundle of hours. The prices are starting prices: size and complexity determine the final price.

Implementation
Predictable financial services start with a proper setup. That is why we first assess your existing administration and finance processes.
Depending on the situation we can:
If your environment is already set up well, not everything has to be redone. We work with our own software because it lets us set up and automate the administration efficiently, but the system is the means and not the goal.
Finance Implementation is quoted separately, after a short assessment.
Clear roles
We take care of the finance operation. You stay at the wheel of your organization.
We do not perform statutory audits or assurance work. If specialist tax advice is needed, we place that with a specialist who is equipped for it.
Is it a fit for you?
Why Digikwal
You know what you are buying and what is not included. No bundle of hours and no surprises afterwards.
We set up the system and the process and then do the work. No handover between parties.
We take recurring manual work out of the process, so processing gets faster and more consistent.
Exceptions and judgement calls are handled by people. With Plus, including senior financial oversight.
Our packages are built for organizations of roughly 1 to 25 employees, not for a corporate finance department.
Start with Essentials and move to a more extensive level when you need more insight or reporting.
Questions
A bookkeeper processes your administration and often takes care of the tax returns and year-end work. With Managed Finance we also do the work around it, depending on the package: monitoring processes, checking outstanding items, making the numbers visible and reporting.
Largely yes, and that is intentional. The difference is in the setup: a well-built, automated workflow, a dedicated point of contact and basic financial insight. If you are purely after the lowest price for bookkeeping, a traditional bookkeeper often makes more sense.
Not necessarily. Some organizations keep the tax returns and year-end work with their accountant or tax adviser and place the administration and the insight with us. We agree on that split in advance.
That depends on the state of your administration, the data that has to come along and the integrations that are needed. Finance Implementation is quoted separately, after a short assessment. If your environment is already set up well, the implementation stays limited.
Because size and complexity determine the work: transaction volume, the number of bank accounts, entities, sales channels, projects, grants and your VAT situation. The amounts shown apply to an organization within the normal complexity of that package. We name the final price after the assessment.
We keep the administration the VAT return follows from and we can prepare that return. Whether we also file it is agreed per organization. Where specialist tax knowledge is needed, we work together with a tax adviser.
We deliver an orderly administration and a year-end close file, so your accountant or tax adviser can take it from there. Drawing up the annual accounts, and anything that requires a formal authority or statement, we leave to the specialist who is equipped for it.
You do. We can prepare and check payment proposals, but you authorize the payment yourself.
Yes. We work well alongside your existing accountant or tax adviser and deliver the information they need.
Yes. Many organizations start with Essentials and switch when they need more insight or reporting. We discuss that at the periodic review.
If you are only looking for the cheapest bookkeeper, do not want to standardize processes, or if complex tax advice or an auditor's statement is your main question. In that case we would rather refer you to a party that fits better.
We look at your current administration, how much work stays with you today and which service level fits that. If a regular bookkeeper makes more sense for your situation, we will say so.
