Accountants for technology companies
Specialist accountants for tech startups and software companies
WallsMan Creative handles R&D tax relief, SEIS and EIS advance assurance, EMI schemes, SaaS revenue recognition and investor-ready reporting.
What we do for tech and software companies
WallsMan Creative is an ICAEW-regulated chartered practice working exclusively with the creative industries, acting for SaaS platforms, app developers, creative-technology businesses and immersive studios from pre-seed through to scale-up.
- R&D tax relief claims: qualifying activity identification, technical narrative, cost methodology and the claim itself
- SEIS and EIS advance assurance: so investors get their relief and your round doesn’t stall on paperwork
- EMI share option schemes: valuations, scheme setup and HMRC registration
- Corporation Tax and year-end accounts: including deferred revenue and revenue recognition done properly
- SaaS and subscription accounting: MRR, ARR, deferred income, multi-currency and payment gateway reconciliation
- VAT: digital services, place of supply, OSS and cross-border sales
- Financial forecasting and investment packs: for pitch decks, data rooms and due diligence
- Payroll: employees, contractors and offshore development teams
- Management reports: runway, burn rate and unit economics your board can actually use
Who we work with in the tech industry
- SaaS and subscription businesses: where revenue recognition and deferred income determine whether your accounts mean anything
- App and platform developers: including app store revenue, in-app purchases and marketplace payouts
- Creative technology businesses: design tools, production software, adtech, martech and music tech
- Immersive, AR, VR and virtual production studios: where the work often crosses into film and TV reliefs
- Games technology and tooling businesses – where the R&D and VGEC boundary matters
- Agencies with a product arm: where part of the business is service and part is software, and the two need separating
- Pre-seed and seed-stage founders: often pre-revenue, raising on SEIS
- Scaling companies: with a board, a payroll and investor reporting obligations
