You’ll get free access to the FreshBooks package developed exclusively for our business customers. The package is based on the existing FreshBooks £22 per month package, with some additional features. FreshBooks usually charges for its packages. You’ll only get the FreshBooks service free if you complete the sign-up journey with FreshBooks through our Online Banking referral, and agree to the FreshBooks terms and conditions. The service will be free for as long as you continue to be an eligible Barclays business customer. If you close all your business current accounts, your free use of the FreshBooks service will end. If we end our partnership with FreshBooks, you won’t get the FreshBooks service free anymore. We’ll let you know if that happens. You’ll then need to download all your data and reports to make sure you keep your records safe and secure, so you comply with Making Tax Digital requirements. 

You can choose to upgrade to a paid FreshBooks package at your own cost. If you decide to upgrade from the free FreshBooks service to another FreshBooks plan, and pay the full price to FreshBooks, Barclays Bank PLC may receive commission for this from FreshBooks.

Referred products are owned and provided by FreshBooks. Alternative service providers in the market may offer similar products. If you sign up to FreshBooks, you’ll need to read and accept their terms and conditions, if you agree with them. Once you become a FreshBooks customer, you’re bound by their terms and conditions. FreshBooks is offering this free for those who have a business current account with us. Barclays Bank UK PLC doesn’t receive commission. Barclays Bank PLC receives commission from upgrades.

We don’t offer tax advice. If you’re not sure about tax or how VAT and other forms of tax work, seek independent financial advice. More Information about tax can be found on the HM Revenue and Customs website.
