bexio accounting
Your bexio accountant and bookkeeper
As your bexio accountant, we keep your accounts directly in your bexio, throughout Switzerland, whether you are based in Zurich, Bern, Basel or St. Gallen. Whether you do the bookkeeping yourself and we check it, or you hand over everything, is up to you. As an implementation partner, we also set up bexio.
Accounting from CHF 290 per month · Set-up once, usually CHF 500 to 1,000
Degree of outsourcing
You decide how much we take on
Anything from a review to a complete handover is possible. Open each line to see what it includes.
You post, we check
Your office assistant continues to record entries in bexio. We look over them quarterly, correct them and prepare the VAT return.
We share the work
You write invoices and send reminders; we take on supplier invoices, payroll and ongoing posting.
We take on everything
You supply the receipts, and we do the rest, up to the tax return. You can view everything in bexio at any time.
Why bexio with OnaccountingAccounting and annual accounts from a single source, a fixed monthly amount and your data in your bexio.
Accounting and annual accounts from a single source
We prepare the annual accounts where the bookkeeping was done during the year. We do not audit them ourselves: Onaccounting AG is licensed as an audit expert (RAB no. 505484), but it only audits companies whose accounts it does not keep.
Fixed monthly amount
In the subscription, the amount is fixed in advance, and the annual financial statements and the tax return are included. No surprise at the end of the year.
Full service without interfaces
Your data stays in bexio, with no copying back and forth between systems.
Transparent access
You can view your financial data yourself in bexio at any time.
Do the bookkeeping yourself or hand it over?There is no answer that is right for everyone. But there are six questions on which the decision usually depends. Here are both sides, without us talking up one of them.
Doing it yourself
With Onaccounting
Who does it
Doing it yourself
You yourself or someone in the office, usually alongside their actual work.
With Onaccounting
A fixed team with a deputy. Holidays and illness do not change the deadlines.
What it costs
Doing it yourself
At first glance, nothing. In reality, working time, licence, training and the evenings it takes up.
With Onaccounting
One amount per month that you know in advance. The bexio licence is included in the subscription.
When something is unclear
Doing it yourself
Googling, asking in the bexio forum, or leaving it and tripping over it at the annual closing.
With Onaccounting
You ask us. Questions about the ongoing accounting are part of the mandate and are not charged individually. A one-off special case is charged by time spent, and we tell you the price beforehand.
At the annual closing
Doing it yourself
Whatever was posted carelessly during the year now comes to light and is reworked.
With Onaccounting
The annual accounts are the continuation of the ongoing bookkeeping, not a clean-up operation.
Control over the figures
Doing it yourself
Complete. You see everything because you recorded everything yourself.
With Onaccounting
Also complete. bexio belongs to you, and we work in it. You see the same status as we do at any time.
When you grow
Doing it yourself
More receipts and more salaries mean more evenings. At some point, you need to hire someone.
With Onaccounting
We change the tier. As a result, you only need to hire for accounting a few years later.
Where bexio reaches its limitsbexio is the right choice for most SMEs, but not for every business in every area. Where it does not fit, we would rather say so beforehand.
Stock with batches and serial numbers
For trade and production with traceability, stock management in bexio is usually not sufficient.
Complex project and site billing
If you work with measurements of work done, variations and partial invoices according to construction progress, an industry solution will serve you better.
Several companies consolidated
Consolidated accounts across several companies are not what bexio is made for. We still keep the individual companies there.
Industry-specific planning
Workshop planning, dispatching, construction management. There is specialist software for that, and you should keep it.
In these cases, you keep your industry software and we synchronise the invoices to bexio. The accounting still runs there, and you see your figures in one place. You can read more about this on the page about the accounting subscription under ‘Three starting points, one goal’.
Our own developmentAs a Platinum Partner, we do not just work in bexio. We develop on top of it.
We build the tools that bexio does not come with
As a Platinum Partner, we do not just work in bexio. We develop on top of it. Using its interface, we build tools that are tailored to your business: for imports that would otherwise be manual work, and for steps that nobody should have to do by hand.
Importing till takings automatically
Hospitality and retail: we fetch the daily takings from your point-of-sale system via the interface and post them in bexio. No retyping, no collecting of daily reports.
Imports made to measure
Years of receipts, master data or open items from an old system: whatever bexio does not import on its own, we prepare with our own tools.
Automating recurring steps
What happens the same way every month does not need to be done by hand. We look at your processes and automate what can sensibly be automated.
AI where it is genuinely useful
Reading receipts, suggesting entries, finding discrepancies. The decision is still made by a person on our team, but the routine before it runs by itself.
The benefit of this lies with you, not with us: you do not pay for hours that a machine handles faster and with fewer errors. Anyone who still has every entry recorded by hand is paying for yesterday’s processes.

Is your accounting behind? That is more common than you might think, and no reason to put off the conversation. We catch up on what has been left undone. We quote for what that requires as a one-off, separately from the ongoing subscription, so that you can see what catching up costs and what business as usual costs.

The switch
How a takeover works with us
Three steps, and none of them is a surprise. This applies above all to the second: before we make the first entry, we look at what is already there.
Initial meeting and quote
It takes 30 minutes and is without obligation. We look at your bexio together and tell you what we see, even if it is uncomfortable. Afterwards, we know what lies ahead and name the monthly amount. Anything that needs to be caught up once is listed separately.
Access and review
You invite us into your bexio as your accountant. We check the chart of accounts, VAT method, bank connection and wage types before we make the first entry.
We take over
From the agreed cut-off date, we keep your accounts. You supply the receipts, and you can see everything else in bexio at any time.
Setting up bexio: six settings that countThese six determine whether everything is right a year later or has to be reworked. We check them before we start, whether bexio is set up from scratch or an existing bexio is taken over.
Chart of accounts
The standard chart of accounts rarely fits without adjustment. We check whether your accounts suit your business and the tax return before a whole year is posted in the wrong place and everything has to be reworked.
VAT method
Effective method or net tax rate (Saldosteuersatz)? The choice can only be changed at certain intervals and has a direct effect on effort and tax burden. We calculate both options for your case instead of taking the more convenient one.
Bank connection
Without a properly set-up bank reconciliation, reconciling remains manual work. Set up correctly, the bank reconciliation suggests the matching open items, and we confirm the allocation. That is the biggest single time saving in bexio.
Receipt archive
Where do the receipts end up, and will you find them again in 5 years? The Code of Obligations requires them to be kept for 10 years. That is not fulfilled automatically just because the receipts are somewhere in the system.
Wage types and social insurance
Incorrectly set-up wage types often only come to light at the annual reconciliation, and then retroactively for 12 months. We check them before the first payroll run.
Permissions
Who is allowed to see what? Especially when employees write invoices but should not see salaries, a clean role concept from the start pays off.
Where you are based makes no difference to the workbexio runs in the cloud. That is why we look after clients throughout Switzerland, not just in the Zurich area.
We access your bexio with our own accountant login. Receipts arrive digitally, we clarify questions by phone or video call, and you can see the reports yourself at any time. Whether your business is in Dübendorf, Bern, Basel, Lucerne or St. Gallen makes no difference to the ongoing work. Our office is in Dübendorf near Zurich; to get to know each other, we meet online or at our office.
What differs from canton to canton is not the accounting but everything around it: compensation offices (Ausgleichskassen), tax offices, tax-at-source rates and commercial registers each have their own deadlines, forms and portals. We deal with them in every canton where our clients are based. That is part of the mandate and not an additional service.
The initial meeting
Let’s spend 30 minutes on your accounting
The initial meeting is free and without obligation. Together we look at where your business loses time today and which of that work we can take on. Afterwards, you know where you stand.
Who would you like to talk to?
30 minutes, without obligation, by video or at our office in Dübendorf. Both of them hold the initial meeting personally.

Questions and answers
Frequently asked questions
We already have bexio. Do we need to change anything?
No. We work directly in your existing bexio, as an accountant with our own access. Your data, your receipts and your processes stay where they are.
What does a Platinum Partner do differently from a normal bexio user?
The partner status requires proven experience and ongoing certification. In practice, this means that we know the settings that should only be set once and correctly, and we have a direct line to bexio if something gets stuck. To be honest: bexio has several hundred certified partners. The status is a prerequisite, not a distinguishing feature. What else you should look out for is in the next answer.
How do I recognise a good bexio accountant?
By four answers. First: who works on my mandate, and will that person stay? Second: is the monthly amount fixed in advance, or is it topped up according to effort at the end of the year? Third: does my data stay in bexio, or is it exported to another system so that I only see it as a PDF? And fourth: who prepares the annual accounts in the end, and with what qualification? With us, the answer to the last question is that we prepare them where the bookkeeping was done during the year, and Onaccounting AG is licensed as an audit expert by the Federal Audit Oversight Authority (Revisionsaufsichtsbehörde), RAB no. 505484. That can be verified, and not every accounting firm has it. Even so, we do not audit your annual accounts: we only audit companies whose accounts we do not keep.
Do you also look after companies in Bern, Basel or St. Gallen?
Yes. Because bexio runs in the cloud, we look after clients throughout Switzerland. The ongoing work is the same whether your business is in Winterthur, Bern, Basel, Lucerne, Zug or St. Gallen. Our office is in Dübendorf near Zurich. We hold the initial meeting online or at our office, whichever you prefer.
We are not on bexio yet. Is switching worthwhile?
For most SMEs, yes. We set up bexio for you, transfer the master data and train your employees. Through us, you also get a 50% discount on the first year’s licence.
Do we keep access to our figures?
Always. bexio belongs to you, and we work in it. You can see the current status at any time without having to ask us.
Why are the review and the annual accounts starting prices, but the subscription a fixed price?
With the subscription, we know the effort: the volume of receipts, the number of employees and the processes are known, and the amount is based on them. With the review and the annual accounts, on the other hand, we take over accounts that we have not yet seen. How much needs correcting only becomes clear when we look. We therefore take a look first and then make you an offer, before the work begins.
What is the difference between a review and handing over everything?
With the review, you do the bookkeeping yourself and we check it quarterly. When you hand over everything, we take over the posting completely. There are all kinds of combinations in between. In the initial meeting, we clarify where the dividing line makes sense.
What does the bexio set-up cost?
We charge the set-up of bexio and the takeover of your previous accounts once, according to effort, usually CHF 500 to 1,000. The amount is also stated in your quote. For annual accounts only, we do not set anything up; instead, we review your existing bexio settings.
Our accounting is behind. Will you still take it on?
Yes. That is more common than you might think, and no reason to put off the conversation. We catch up on what has been left undone. We quote for what that requires as a one-off, separately from the ongoing subscription, so that you can see what catching up costs and what business as usual costs.
