Free Accounting Software for small business

Akaunting is completely free. You may see a similar claim within other accounting software but there are usually limitations.

Some of them limit the number of admins/customers, other invoices, and some, online payments. With Akaunting, there are no hidden fees, no strings attached, no limited versions, no trials, etc. Free means free.

Online Accounting Software

You can access Akaunting from any device. Akaunting allows you to see your financials online anytime, anywhere. You can access your financials instantly if you have an internet connection.

You can also give limited access rights to stakeholders of your business. e.g., You can give access to your accountant, so they only see what you’ve allowed.

Open Source Accounting Software

With Akaunting, your financials are safe and under your control. Open Source software provides you full privacy. 

After seeing how closed-source completely dominated the market space and limited small business life cycles and successes, we knew there was a problem.

We’re disrupting the space and introducing the power of Open Source to the accounting world.

Better UI & UX

Akaunting is built with modern technologies such as Laravel, Tailwind, Vuejs, RESTful API, etc. 

The user experience is fluid, providing you with an easy user interface to navigate and find your favorite features quickly.

Akaunting is created with Tailwind on the front end, using PHP 8.0 and Laravel 9 as infrastructure to deliver high-performing accounting functionalities and a better user experience.
