– Nancy Brown, Therapist,

clients. It also ensures that they are ready for MTD for Income Tax well ahead of the implementation
date, so everybody wins.”
– Ele Stevens, the barefoot accountant,
NextLink Agency Partner
It’s simple, efficient, & cost-effective
Cloud accounting and professional landlord software is too complex and expensive
for MTD clients’ needs, meaning you’ll lose both time and money by putting them on it. NextLink Agency, on the
other hand, is so simple that anyone can use it…even those resistant to new technology or
change.
It unmuddles business, property & personal finances
One of the biggest challenges with sole traders and individual freelancers is that
a huge proportion of them use non-dedicated bank and credit card accounts for some (if not all) of
their business transactions. NextLink Agency makes it easy for both you and your clients to unmuddle these
transactions in just a tap.
It opens up opportunity for revenue growth
Don’t waste valuable time being front-line support. By using NextLink Agency’s MTD ITSA
software for accountants, you can standardise and streamline your workflow, and manage a high volume
of smaller clients much more efficiently – opening up capacity for new business as demand
increases.
MTD ITSA: the £360 million opportunity
When Making Tax Digital for Income Tax Self Assessment comes into effect, more
than four million sole traders and freelancers will be affected. NextLink Agency’s MTD ITSA software is
specifically built to support these clients and their accountants through this transition and beyond.
With our simple, cost-effective, and purpose-built tools, we’ll help you digitise your sole trader and
landlord clients with ease.
And of course, with change comes opportunity: our data shows
that an additional one million taxpayers who don’t currently use an accountant may be willing to pay
for one to help them with MTD ITSA – presenting a major revenue growth opportunity to firms who ensure
their software and processes are ready to meet the huge increase in demand.

NextLink Agency makes it easy for subcontractors and their accountants to add back CIS deductions in a couple of clicks. This means that when their tax return is due, you can run our SA103S report for the tax year to get the figures for total turnover as well as the CIS tax withheld.

With complete visibility of your clients’ finances via the Accountant Platform, you’ll be able to access receipts, track invoices, and review and query transactions whenever you need to – meaning you can provide your clients with proactive, real-time advice and insights throughout the year.
Provide clients with a mobile-first tool
To fit into their day-to-day lives, clients need to be able manage their financial affairs on the go, ideally on mobile. Even the most tech-resistant clients will often use a smartphone, so opting for NextLink Agency’s mobile-first tool will be less intimidating than complicated web-based software.

NextLink Agency’s app provides additional digital invoicing and tax-tracking tools that make it easy for clients to build good bookkeeping habits and keep their finances in order – saving you time (and sanity) when it comes to year end.

NextLink Agency’s software is a good fit for all practices, regardless of how hands-on you are with your clients’ accounts. Once your client is set up on the app, they’ll be able to do all of their own bookkeeping – but if you prefer, you can also opt to take care of those tasks yourself.
