I have a question!

Does this software work with Sage / my commercial bookkeeping software?

Yes! #GoFile works alongside your existing bookkeeping software – including Sage 50, Sage 200, Sage Instant, QuickBooks, Money, TASBooks, and many more. There’s no need to upgrade or switch. Simply export your VAT Return from your existing software, then import and submit through #GoFile.

Does this work with Excel / Apple Numbers / Google Sheets / my own spreadsheets?

Absolutely. If you do your bookkeeping in spreadsheets, you can still use #GoFile. It’s a simple 3-step process: prepare your figures, enter them into #GoFile, and submit. We also provide video tutorials and example spreadsheets to help you get started.

I don’t have bookkeeping software – I do our books the old fashioned way with pen & paper. Can we use your system?

Making Tax Digital requires digital records. We provide example spreadsheets you can use to get started digitally. If you need a more comprehensive solution, our sister company Numeo offers full bookkeeping software.

Can I have a trial of your VAT software?

Yes – sign up for free, test all features, try the integration with HMRC, and only pay when you’re ready to submit your first return.

Is your VAT software compatible with an Apple Mac / Windows PC / mobile device?

#GoFile is cloud software that runs entirely in your web browser. It works on any internet-capable device including Macs, Windows PCs, Chromebooks, iPads, tablets, and mobile phones.

How much does your VAT software cost?

Our pricing is designed to be as low as possible. Check out our pricing page for full details.

Is #GoFile compliant with Making Tax Digital for VAT?

Yes. #GoFile is fully compliant with Making Tax Digital for VAT and the Digital Link requirement. Read our complete guide to filing a VAT Return for more details.

Do you support the Flat Rate / Margin / Global Accounting / Cash VAT scheme?

Yes – all VAT schemes are supported. Our software doesn’t calculate your VAT; it simply imports and submits your 9-box return to HMRC.

I manage several companies. Can I submit all VAT Returns from one login?

Yes. You can add unlimited companies under a single login and submit returns separately for each one.

Can I file a return as a sole-trader? Or just as an incorporated?

#GoFile is suitable for all company types – sole traders, limited companies, partnerships, and charities. The only requirement is a VAT Number.

I am an accountant. Can I file for several companies at once?

Yes. Set your account type to Agent/Accountant, add unlimited companies, and take advantage of bulk discount pricing. See our pricing page for details.
