Easy R&D would like to announce the launch of their new R&D tax portal, R&D Online. R&D Online is an intuitive digital platform that makes it easy for accountants to offer R&D tax relief services to clients.
The platform simplifies the claims process, meaning accountancy firms no longer need to have a specialist in-house to complete R&D claims. Finally small to medium accountancy firms can compete with larger firms who can afford to hire R&D specialists.
Easy R&D have been providing this specialist area of tax for over five years, partnering with accountants across the UK, enabling them to provide these services to their clients. But Easy R&D could see there was a gap in the market – so many accountants wanted to offer the service directly.
R&D tax claims are often complex and highly technical, so it is very difficult for a general practitioner to make claims on behalf of clients. But easy R&D has developed a platform which allows accountants to make successful claims without outsourcing any of the work.
R&D Online is an intuitive platform that walks the account through the complex claims process, step-by-step. The portal is designed to be very simple to use, but, should the accountant run into any difficulties or have questions about the best way to proceed, R&D Online is supported by a team of R&D specialists who are just a phone call away. It’s a self-guided system underpinned by a robust support team – exactly what accountants need to put together successful claims in-house.
Andrew Howarth, R&D Online CEO, said: “I am a great advocate of light-touch technology that delivers quick and easy benefits. R&D Online is a product of that philosophy: a simple solution to a major challenge for accountants across the UK. With the launch of R&D Online, every accountant in the UK will be able to provide R&D Tax relief to their clientele, resulting in sizeable benefits for everyone involved.”
Jones, Hunt and Keelings, Chartered Certified Accountants and Chartered Tax Advisors noted how Easy R&D provides added value to its clients. Alf Del Basso, Partner at Jones Hunt and Keelings, said, “It’s allowed us to offer R&D tax relief to clients, and as there aren’t many firms in the local area that can do that, it really sets us apart”.
Dom Maurello, Partner, noted that “R&D tax relief is complex, it’s really not for the general practitioner, but each claim we’ve made has been successful… I most definitely recommend using R&D Online”. Both agree that the integration of R&D online allows them to provide that highly specialised level of service in the most streamlined way possible.
R&D online launches on 1 March 2018. If you have any further questions, please email Andrew Howarth on [email protected]
