What ClearBar is — and isn't
Not another accounting tool.
ClearBar doesn't replace QuickBooks, Sage, Dext, or your accountant's own software — it's a bridge that sits between you and them.
Stops the leaks
VAT leaks cost businesses vast amounts in overpaid tax. ClearBar plugs the leak between you and your accountant — so you claim back all your VAT, not most of it.
A true bridge, not a rival
Built to help business owners and accountants streamline their process together — and save the business money along the way.
No personal data, no faff
No personal data stored, no cumbersome setup — genuinely plug and play.
Your accountant sees what they should
Instead of blindly typing in invoices and receipts, your accountant sees exactly what should be there — and can flag what's missing.

Frequently asked questions
Why should I pay £15 a month?+
ClearBar is the only tool like it. At £15 a month, the worst case is that it's cost-neutral — we can guarantee you'll save at least the subscription cost in VAT leaks alone. Realistically, it should make you money. And even setting the VAT aside, it's an irreplaceable way to see your real-time figures — organising your business in one place and making accounting that bit less painful.
Can I use ClearBar on my phone and tablet?+
Yes — it's a web app, designed to work on any device. We'd recommend a computer for the extra screen space, but it works well on the go from your phone too. A few input screens, like bank entry, are easier in landscape.
Where is my data stored, and who can see it?+
Your data is stored, not shared. You can give one or more accountants access to your audit page only — nothing more. We never share your data; it's yours to keep in your account or export whenever you like. We don't track you across other apps, and we don't ask for personal details beyond what running your account needs. This tool is for you, not for anyone else.
Do I need to install anything, and does it integrate with my accounting software?+
No — ClearBar is a web app, so there's nothing to download. It doesn't integrate with any other software; it's a tool that keeps your business visible to you and keeps communication clean between you and your accountant. Think of it as the cleaner that sits between your messy books and your accountant's software, helping everyone make sense of the figures.
