Welcome to FairBooks¶
FairBooks is the fairer accounting app for Australian sole traders. Manage invoices, track expenses and bills, reconcile your bank statements, handle GST, and generate BAS reports, all in one place. Also works on mobile as a Progressive Web App.
Currently in limited testing
FairBooks is in private testing while we prepare for launch, so access is limited for now. These docs cover the app as it stands today.
