Australian Tradies
Stop letting paperwork
drain your business.
FreeMyCloud provides Australian trade businesses with a dedicated, qualified bookkeeper — giving you clean accounts, on-time BAS, and the financial clarity to grow.
Common challenges
Where trade businesses lose money
Poor financial records cost Australian tradies thousands every year in missed deductions, late penalties, and cash flow gaps.
Outstanding invoices
Unpaid receivables are the single biggest cash flow killer for trade businesses.
BAS & GST obligations
Reactive lodgements create penalties, interest charges, and ATO scrutiny.
Unclaimed deductions
Vehicles, tools, equipment — without records these legitimate claims go unsubstantiated.
Time lost to admin
Hours spent on reconciliations are hours not on the tools or growing your client base.
No financial visibility
Without current P&L, business decisions are made on instinct rather than data.
Payroll complexity
Super, leave entitlements, and contractor payments create compliance risk without support.

On-time, every quarter. Every eligible claim captured and documented.

Accounts receivable
Invoice tracking and systematic follow-up to keep your cash flow healthy.
Management reporting
Monthly P&L, balance sheet, and cash flow — in plain language.
Deduction maximisation
Meticulous records of all claimable expenses — audit-ready at all times.
Software that works the way you do
Your job management app and your accounting software — connected.
Most Australian tradies already use job management software like ServiceM8, Tradify, NextMinute, or Simpro to quote, schedule, and invoice. The real power comes when those tools talk directly to your accounting software — automatically syncing jobs, invoices, and payments without double data entry.
Xero leads the Australian market for the breadth of its integrations with tradie-specific apps. Our bookkeepers are experienced in setting up and maintaining these connections so your entire workflow is seamless.
