Who flonancial suits

FreeFree
  • No subscription
  • Flonancial says quarterly updates and the year-end tax return will always stay free and that any paid extras in future would be optional
  • Quarterly updates send one income total and one expenses total, so each business or property source must have income below £90,000
  • For UK property, residential finance costs such as mortgage interest are sent to HMRC separately, but unused finance costs brought forward from an earlier year are not supported yet

Good to know

flonancial is free bridging software: you keep your records in your own spreadsheet, pick the cells with your turnover and expenses, and it sends those totals to HMRC. Its home page and terms say the quarterly updates and the year-end tax return are free, and that any paid features added later would be optional. The year-end return covers the supported sole-trader and UK property cases, with some extra income, losses and adjustments. There are limits worth knowing about. Each business or property source needs income below £90,000, because flonancial sends one income total and one expenses total. For a let property, it asks for your mortgage interest and other residential finance costs from a separate cell and sends them to HMRC on their own, but it cannot yet carry forward unused finance costs from an earlier year. flonancial also points people with lease premiums, tax deducted from rent, rent-a-room income or foreign property elsewhere. Its demonstration includes a landlord filing her 50% share of four jointly owned rentals from one spreadsheet, where she enters her own share. We did not find bank feeds, receipt capture, mileage, accountant access, a way to split jointly owned property or furnished holiday lets, and it runs in a web browser. We checked this on 25 October 2026.

Weighing flonancial against other products

Hear about price changes once a month

We’ll email you a link to confirm first. Once you confirm, Acrenvo will send one email a month summarising the MTD software price changes we have checked and any changes to HMRC’s list of software for MTD for Income Tax, with links to the pages on Acrenvo where each change is recorded. Each email may also pick out one dated finding from that month’s record and list the coming MTD for Income Tax deadlines. If nothing changed in a month, we send nothing. In future it may also carry one advert and news of paid guides or templates from Acrenvo, each clearly labelled for what it is. Every email has a stop link, and stopping takes a single click.

This is separate from the deadline reminders, and signing up for one does not sign you up for the other. No account is needed. How we use your email address. Past emails and what each one holds
