Brilliant New ExpensePlus Features
Auto-Accruals
For churches and charities that create accounts on an accruals basis, ExpensePlus now automatically accrues for both purchases and invoice income, removing the need to do this manually.

LoveGiving
LoveGiving is an easy-to-use giving platform used by churches and charities to accept online donations and claim Gift Aid. You can set up and customise your donations page in minutes, create fund-specific donation links, create donation campaigns, and much more.

VAT
ExpensePlus enables charities that are registered for VAT, to be able to manage VAT and create SORP-compliant fund accounts in the same brilliant accounting package! Most charities can only claim back a proportion of VAT on expenditure, so we’ve included a feature for this too.
