Xero accounting services for South Wales businesses on a fixed fee
Xero accounting services are what most owners ring us about once the bookkeeping has drifted and a VAT return is due. We set Xero up, move your history across and keep it right every month.
Moving software sounds like a week you do not have. We do the migration free, and we never put the setup calls on your invoice. Tax investigation cover is included free for every client, and every HMRC investigation we have handled, we have won.
In one lineSupreme Consultants is an AAT licensed accountancy practice in Cardiff Bay that sets up and runs Xero for owner managed businesses across South Wales. Migration to Xero is free, fees are fixed and agreed in writing before work starts, and tax investigation cover is included for all of its 100 plus clients.

Answer with a button and see where you stand.
Question 1 of 3
Does your accountant reply the same working day?
Do you know your fee will not change this year?
If HMRC wrote tomorrow, would they deal with it at no extra cost?
That is three gaps, and each one costs you something quietly. Run the check and we will tell you what we would do with your Xero file first.
Start the checkYou are in a reasonable position on most of it. There is one gap worth half an hour of conversation before your next VAT quarter.
Start the checkYou are well served and we would say so on a call. Read the guides if you want to sense check your setup yourself.
Read the guidesWhat you get
Tax investigation cover at no extra cost
Every client gets it free, where other firms sell it as an add-on. Every HMRC investigation we have handled, we have won.
Numbers you can look at this week
Bank feeds reconciled and VAT figures ready in Xero. You can see what last month made before you sign for a second van.
A fee you know before we start
A fixed fee agreed in writing before any work begins. Ring us when the VAT figure looks wrong and it costs nothing.
What owners tell us when they call about Xero
Three things we hear most weeks from people already paying for the software.
I bought Xero two years ago and I still do the VAT off a spreadsheet.
The receipts sat in a box and the return went in on estimates.
My last accountant invoiced me for a ten minute call about a broken bank feed.
He stopped asking questions, so a year of unmatched transactions had to be unpicked at year end.
Xero says I owe VAT, the bank says something else, and nobody will tell me which is right.
The payment went out twice and it took three months to get it back.
What changes once we take it on
We reconcile Xero monthly and tell you the VAT figure before it is due. You get the same working day reply when something looks odd, and the call is never charged. Your year end comes out of the same file, so there is no January scramble.
Running Xero yourself against running it with us
Plenty of owners manage Xero alone, and some do it well.
Keeping Xero going on your own
You match the bank feed when you get an evening free.
The VAT figure is whatever Xero shows on the day.
Questions wait until year end, when fixing them takes longer.
An HMRC letter lands on your desk and stays there.
With Supreme Consultants
We reconcile the feed monthly and chase what is missing.
We check the VAT figure before it is filed.
You ring us the day the question comes up and pay nothing for it.
We answer HMRC, with investigation cover included free.
Eight questions about your Xero setup
Answer these honestly before your next VAT quarter.
Are your bank feeds connected and reconciled to last month?
A broken feed hides sales and overstates what you owe.
Do you know your VAT figure before the deadline week?
Knowing early means you can fund it rather than borrow for it.
Is anyone checking the VAT codes on your purchases?
Wrong codes on fuel and entertaining are the most common correction we make.
Does your Xero carry opening balances that match your last accounts?
If they do not match, your year end will take twice as long.
Are receipts attached to transactions in Xero?
HMRC asks for the paperwork, and the box under the till is slow to search.
Does payroll feed through to your Xero ledger each month?
Otherwise wages and PAYE sit outside the figures you make decisions on.
Can you see last month’s profit without ringing anyone?
You should be able to open Xero and read it in a minute.
Would your accountant answer an HMRC Xero query at no extra charge?
Ours do, because investigation cover is included free.

What a fee that covers the phone call is actually worth
A Cardiff convenience store franchisee mentioned his rates bill in passing at his first meeting with us. He had paid full business rates right through Covid because Cardiff Council required an application and nobody had told him.
Clients described by type. Names withheld.
- How it was found
- We spotted it in the first meeting, because asking us a small question costs nothing.
- What happened
- He got the money back and now rings us before he commits to anything.
Reviews from clients
Thank you Mud, your help and support with my VAT return is greatly appreciated. Always a prompt response and my difficult VAT return was quickly submitted and resolved. Would definitely recommend.
I just want to say a big thank you to Mudassir for all the advice, guidance and help he has provided whilst dealing with my accounts and tax returns. From start to finish the service has been excellent and professional. Unlike other accountancy firms they provide a friendly personalised service, I was very clear on the process and was even provided with additional guidance where needed. Highly recommended!
Friendly, nice 👌 , helpful and great all around
Difficult to describe as there are too many words that can be expressed for a wonderful accountant and their firm.
Definitely 🔝 and highly recommended in Wales 🏴 and throughout the UK for Accountancy and Tax Services

How moving to Xero with us works
Most of it happens on our side; you say yes and send us a login.
- Before you join
A free introductory chat
Tell us where things stand with your books. We will be straight about whether we are the right fit.
- Week one
Fee agreed and handover started
We do your ID checks, agree the fixed fee in writing and write to your current accountant for the records. You avoid that conversation.
- First month
Your history moved into Xero
We migrate your data free, connect the bank feeds and reconcile. We also read your past returns and HMRC records for missed reliefs and penalties worth appealing.
- By ninety days
Every deadline in the diary
VAT, payroll, accounts and corporation tax all mapped for the year from your Xero file. We also talk through how you pay yourself.
Who we are not right for
We do not act for CIS construction subcontractors.
We do not take on charities.
We do not take on businesses already well into an HMRC investigation.
If none of those describe you, the three questions above will tell you whether a call is worth your time.
Xero accounting services: questions people ask
How much do Xero accounting services cost?
You pay one fixed monthly fee, agreed in writing before any work starts. It depends on your turnover, whether you are VAT registered, transaction volumes, payroll headcount and how tidy the records are. Calls, meetings and emails are never charged on top. We quote after the introductory chat rather than guess at a number.
Can you switch me from my current accountant and take over my Xero file?
Yes. We send the professional clearance letter so you do not have to raise it, get authorised as your agent with HMRC and Companies House, and take over the Xero subscription or set up a new one. Switching includes a free handover, free Companies House ID verification where needed and a free first month.
What happens if HMRC writes to me or opens a check?
Send us the letter the day it arrives and we deal with HMRC directly. Tax investigation cover is included free for every client, where other firms sell it as an add-on. Every HMRC investigation we have handled, we have won. Bringing us in early is what gives us room to change things.
Do I have to change software to work with you?
No. We work with the system you already have, and we only suggest Xero when it saves you time. If you do want to move, the migration to Xero is free and we handle the data, the opening balances and the bank feeds ourselves. You carry on invoicing while we do it.
Who does the bookkeeping in Xero, you or me?
Either works. Most clients hand the whole thing over, so we code the purchases, reconcile the bank and attach the paperwork. Others raise their own sales invoices in Xero and leave the rest to us. We will agree the split at the start so nothing sits in the middle unclaimed.
Do you offer Xero accounting services to businesses outside Cardiff?
Yes. Over 90% of our clients are across South Wales, including Newport, Swansea, Caerphilly, Port Talbot and Barry, and we act for clients in Bristol and the wider UK too. Xero means we work remotely, in person at Titan House, or a mix. We take on ongoing clients rather than one-off returns.
