Saving you time
We know small business owners don’t start a business to be snowed under with admin and compliance. That’s why we’re building a platform that takes care of time-consuming admin, so they can get back to doing what they love.
Hello, we’re Countingup
We’re building a platform that will shape the future of finance for the self-employed, from the heart of London.
The Countingup story
Countingup was founded in 2017 by a team of industry experts, led by former Clearbooks CEO Tim Fouracre. As a small business owner himself, Tim saw a recurring problem: self-employed people were spending too much time buried in paperwork and struggling with complex financial admin instead of focusing on what drove them to start their business in the first place.
Recognising the need for change, Tim brought together a team with a shared passion for solving this problem. The founding team combined their skills to create a revolutionary solution–a tool that brought together money, bookkeeping, accounting and taxes, giving small business owners more time and freedom to focus on what they love.
With a simple vision – to shape the future of finance for the self-employed, the team has worked tirelessly to build a platform that’s more than a product — it’s a co-pilot for small businesses. We’re proud to say Countingup is now a key partner for thousands of small businesses across the UK. We’re constantly working to deliver more benefits, simpler solutions and greater opportunities for businesses to thrive.
