Accountants for Technology & SaaS Companies in Ireland
Tech finances look simple until you scale — recurring revenue and deferred income, cash burn and runway, international sales and VAT on digital services, and investors who expect clean numbers. KPG Accounting Services Limited helps Irish technology and SaaS companies report properly and plan ahead.
Understanding the sector
Software and SaaS businesses earn recurring, often prepaid revenue, which needs deferring across the subscription rather than booking upfront. Development costs, cloud and contractor spend, cash burn and runway, cross-border and digital-services VAT, foreign currency and investor reporting all add up — and the finance function has to scale as you raise and grow.
Common challenges
Recurring & deferred revenue
Recognising subscription income over time, not all at once.
Runway & cash burn
Knowing how long your cash lasts and what changes it.
International & digital VAT
Handling cross-border and digital-services VAT (including OSS) correctly
Investor & board reporting
Producing clean, credible numbers for investors and grants.
Every one of these problems disappears the moment bookkeeping is handled properly, in the cloud, by a team that does it every day. That’s what we offer.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
How should SaaS subscription revenue be recognised?
Generally, subscription income is recognised over the period it covers rather than when it’s invoiced, with the balance held as deferred revenue. The right treatment depends on your contracts and terms, so we set your accounts up to reflect it and report MRR/ARR alongside. See our Management Accounts page.
Can you help with R&D tax credits or grants?
We can help you prepare and account for them, and coordinate with specialists where needed — but eligibility and treatment depend on the specific activities and facts, and aren’t automatic. We’ll review your position rather than assume it qualifies. See our Tax Services page or get in touch.
How do you handle VAT on international and digital sales?
Cross-border and digital-services sales can bring VAT obligations, often via the One-Stop Shop, and B2B and B2C are treated differently. The correct approach depends on who and where you sell to, so we’ll assess your model and file accordingly. See our Tax Services page.
Can you produce investor and board reporting?
Yes. We prepare management accounts and KPIs — MRR/ARR, burn, runway and cohort-level views where useful — in a format investors and boards expect. See our Management Accounts and Business Advisory pages.
