Ledgerline Start the trial

Turn a year of bank statements into invoices your accountant will accept.

Ledgerline reads your business bank feed, groups the payments that were really design work, and writes each one up as a dated invoice with the client, the project and the amount already filled in. Then it totals the quarter, so your filing is a print-out rather than a weekend.

£9 a month once the trial ends. No card to start, and you cancel from the same screen you signed up on.

March and early April, one studio, three payments — reconciled faster than it takes to read this section.

Noise in, invoices out

Most statements are a wall of card-processor shorthand. Ledgerline doesn't guess at it: you tag a payer once, and every spelling that payer uses afterwards — the Stripe descriptor, the Square prefix, the occasional BACS line — resolves to the same client without you touching it again.

The harder job is deciding what isn't income. Software subscriptions, travel, the studio's own card payments: all of it sits in the same feed and none of it belongs on an invoice. Ledgerline leaves those lines alone and tells your accountant where the money went.

It reads, matches, writes and totals. Then it stops.

Ledgerline is not bookkeeping software and would be bad at pretending to be. These are the five jobs it does, and the edge of each one.

Reads the feed
Open-banking connections to 12,000+ banks and building societies, plus CSV and OFX import for the accounts still posting paper statements.
Learns your payers
Tag MERIDIAN once and SQ *MERIDIAN STU, Meridian Ltd and MERIDIAN STUDIO LTD all resolve to one client from then on.
Writes the invoice
Client, project, date, amount and your net-30 terms filled in — ready to send, or to export as a PDF you'd be happy to put your name on.
Totals the quarter
VAT, GST or sales tax and income totals per quarter and per currency, with the assumptions written down next to the number rather than hidden behind it.
Keeps the paper trail
Every invoice links back to the raw bank line it came from, so a question from HMRC, the IRS or your accountant is a two-minute lookup instead of an archaeology project.

Who it's for, and what it costs

Solo designers and studios of up to about eight people who invoice flat fees and get paid by bank transfer, Stripe, PayPal or the occasional cheque.

If you currently reconcile in a spreadsheet the weekend before your filing deadline, this replaces the weekend. If your accountant already does all of it and you'd rather not change that, keep them — Ledgerline just makes the job they're charging you for a good deal smaller.

Questions people actually ask

Will it file my tax return?
No, and it won't pretend to. Ledgerline produces the invoices and the quarterly totals; you or your accountant do the filing. If you'd rather it all lived in your existing books, export to Xero, QuickBooks or CSV.
Can it see my bank login?
No. Connections run through read-only open banking, so Ledgerline can read transactions and nothing else — it can't move money, and it never sees your credentials.
What if my bank isn't supported?
Import a CSV or OFX export and everything works the same way. That covers roughly 8% of sign-ups, mostly small building societies and credit unions.
What happens to my data if I cancel?
Export every invoice, every match and every raw bank line as CSV or PDF for 90 days after you cancel. After that it's deleted, not quietly kept.
Does it work outside the UK?
Multi-currency accounts work, and it prints VAT, GST or sales-tax totals depending on where you're registered. The filing rules stay your business — Ledgerline just hands you the numbers.
