How our pricing works

We're a subscription bookkeeping service. Instead of unpredictable hourly bills, you pay one fixed monthly fee that covers everything we've agreed — bookkeeping, BAS, payroll, reporting and support. We review your Xero file and transaction volume first, then quote your exact fee before you sign anything.

  • Quoted upfront, fixed once agreed.
  • No hourly billing. No hidden add-ons. No bill shock.
  • Monthly arrangements — no lock-in contracts.

What businesses like yours typically invest

Every quote is tailored — these ranges are a guide, not a menu. Your exact fee depends on transaction volume, payroll, entities and the level of support you want.

From $450/month — sole traders and simple businesses with modest transaction volume and no payroll
$700–$1,100/month — growing businesses with payroll, regular BAS and steady transaction flow
$1,200–$1,500/month — established businesses with higher volume, larger teams and deeper reporting needs
$2,000–$3,000/month — larger or multi-entity businesses that want a full finance function without hiring in-house

Better value — and more resilient — than hiring in-house

An in-house bookkeeper costs salary plus super, leave, software, training and recruitment — and everything stops when they're sick, on holiday, or move on. Bean Guru is team-based: your books are never dependent on one person, so nothing falls through the cracks. That built-in redundancy is why even our larger clients choose a subscription over an employee.

  • A whole team behind your books, not a single point of failure.
  • Registered BAS Agent and Xero Certified — compliance handled properly.
  • No super, leave loading, software licences or training costs.

Pricing questions, answered

How much does a bookkeeper cost in Australia?

Hourly bookkeepers in Australia typically charge somewhere between $50 and $90 an hour, which makes your monthly bill hard to predict. Bean Guru works differently: a fixed monthly subscription, quoted upfront. Most of our clients invest between $450 and $1,500 per month depending on transaction volume, payroll and complexity.

What determines my monthly fee?

We review your Xero file and look at transaction volume, number of bank accounts, payroll headcount, BAS and compliance needs, and how much support you want. Then we quote a single fixed monthly fee before you commit to anything.

Can my price change without warning?

No. Your fee is fixed once agreed. If your business grows or your needs change significantly, we'll talk it through with you first — you'll never open an invoice and get a surprise.

Is outsourced bookkeeping cheaper than hiring in-house?

Almost always. An in-house bookkeeper costs salary plus super, leave, software and training — and everything stops when they're sick or on holiday. Bean Guru is team-based, so there's built-in redundancy: your books keep moving no matter what. Even our larger clients investing $2,000–$3,000 a month find it better value and more resilient than employing someone.

What if I'm behind on my books?

New clients on a 12-month plan get up to 2 months of catch-up bookkeeping free. If you're more than 2 months behind, we offer 50% off our Rescue Package to get you back on track — no judgement, we've seen it all.

Are there lock-in contracts?

We work on monthly arrangements with no lock-in contracts. The optional 12-month plan simply unlocks the free catch-up offer. If it's not working for you, just let us know.
