Download free accounts software for start-up and small businesses
Basics is free accounting software designed to help your business keep track of its cash flow. It shows you at-a-glance how your business stands - who owes you money and who you owe money to.
The free software download is quick, simple and easy to set up. It's not a time-limited trial version, there's no obligation and it's yours to use for as long as you need.
Why is it free? We were a small business once and we haven't forgotten what it was like. So, we're giving a little something back to help your business grow, and when you need more from your software, we hope you'll consider our other products and services. It's simple.
