CharityFinancials
What it is
CharityFinancials is paid web-based accounting software for UK charities, CIOs, churches, faith organisations, and their accountants. Its fund accounting tracks restricted, unrestricted, designated, and endowment funds with live balances and an audit trail. Users can assign transactions to projects, set budgets, and report project income, expenditure, and remaining funds. Reports include SOFA, Income & Expenditure, Balance Sheet, Trial Balance, donor reports, and fund or project reports. The statutory accounts module covers trustees’ annual reports, examiner or auditor reports, primary statements, and SORP notes. The product says it supports iXBRL tagging with the FRC 2025 taxonomy for Companies House and HMRC filing. Bank statements import from CSV or Excel, while reports export to PDF and Excel and management accounts to Word. MTD VAT recognition is pending, with alternative filing routes noted. The Standard plan is £25 a month, billed at £25 plus VAT monthly.
