Xero gives you an up-to-the-minute view of your cash flow, invoices, and expenses — accessible from any device, anytime.
Making Tax Digital Compliant

Bank feeds connect directly to Xero, automatically importing transactions so your accounts stay up to date with minimal manual data entry.
Payroll & Expenses
Manage payroll, employee expenses, and CIS deductions directly within Xero — RTI compliant and integrated with HMRC.
Monthly Collaboration
Your Figures UK accountant works within the same live Xero system, reviewing your accounts every month rather than waiting for year-end data.

Our clients also get access to Dext — receipt extraction software that feeds directly into Xero, eliminating the shoebox of receipts.
Common Questions
Xero FAQs
How easy is it to switch accountants, and can you take over partway through the year?
Very easy — and yes, you can switch at any point in the year. As one of the very first UK firms to use Xero with clients, we make the handover seamless: we request your records, migrate your books into Xero, and handle the transfer to HMRC and Companies House for you. There's no disruption to your deadlines and no need to wait for year end.
Is Xero right for my business in Peterborough?
Xero suits most small and medium-sized businesses — from sole traders and freelancers to limited companies with multiple employees. It is particularly powerful for businesses preparing for Making Tax Digital. Figures UK will advise whether Xero is the right fit during your free consultation.
How much does Xero cost?
At Figures UK, Xero is included as part of your fixed monthly accounting service. You do not pay separately for the software — your monthly fee covers your accountancy service and your Xero licence together.
What is Making Tax Digital and when does it apply to me?
Making Tax Digital (MTD) requires VAT-registered businesses to keep digital records and submit VAT returns through MTD-compatible software. Figures UK and Xero are fully MTD-compliant — we handle the entire submission process for you.
Can you migrate my existing accounts to Xero?
Yes. Figures UK handles the entire Xero migration and setup process — importing historical data, setting up your chart of accounts, and connecting your bank feeds. We ensure a smooth transition with minimal disruption to your business.
Do I need to be tech-savvy to use Xero?
Not at all. Xero is designed to be user-friendly, and Figures UK provides full training and ongoing support. Most of our clients get comfortable with the basics within days, and we handle the complex accounting work behind the scenes.
