Beu Software Could Boost Your Profits By 20%

Growing your business by bringing in self-employed staff certainly has its benefits, but until now there have always been issues…

Avoid Registering For VAT

With a few self-employed staff working through the same card machine and bank, it is all too easy to hit the VAT threshold of £85,000. The only other option until now was separate card machines for each staff member, requiring a messy reconciliation of accounts to ensure everyone is getting paid what they are owed. Beu has just released a huge update to end this for good; now all staff can use the same software and share a card terminal while Beu routes the payments to the correct bank accounts at the point of payment.

Imagine the following example: Jo owns a barbershop and has a self-employed staff member called Matt. In exchange for using her premises, Matt pays Jo 50% of each booking. Before Beu, they would sit down at the end of each day, calculate Matt’s earnings, and Jo would transfer Matt 50% of what he put through the card machine to his bank account. Not only did this take time and require trust, it also meant that Jo had to report all of Matt’s earnings as her own, which put her earnings over £85,000 and required her to register for VAT. This meant all services in her salon had an additional 20% VAT charge on.

Since moving to Beu, Jo doesn’t have to be registered for VAT, or sit down every day sending money to Matt. She simply adds Matt to her barbershop and sets his commission rate at 50%. Now when Matt takes a payment at the end of the service, the payment is split, with 50% going to Matt's bank account, and 50% going to Jo’s. With this new set up, she only has to account for her portion of Matt’s turnover, which puts her under the £85,000 limit meaning she no longer has to be VAT registered. As customers at her barbershop were used to paying VAT on top of their appointment, she can now make 20% extra profit on all services, without having to raise her prices.
