Vexo Accounting is a team of ecommerce accountants working with UK ecommerce businesses that sell on Amazon, Shopify, eBay, and beyond. Some people search for ecommerce accountants, others search for e-commerce accountants, and some still call it e-commerce accounting rather than ecommerce accounting. It is the same job to us, and it is the only job we do.
As ecommerce accountants, we act as dedicated online accountants for online sellers and UK ecommerce businesses right across the country, from your first sale through to seven figures. Our accounting services are built just for ecommerce, not adapted from a general practice that also does plumbers and hairdressers. Our ecommerce services cover everything from day-to-day bookkeeping through to strategic planning.
Ecommerce accounting is not the same as accounting for a shop on the high street. Your money moves through platforms, payment gateways and marketplace payouts before it ever reaches your business bank account, and that gap is where most tax bills and messy books come from. That is the gap our ecommerce accounting services are built to close.
More than 28% of all UK retail sales now happen online, and online spending made up 50.5% of total card spending by September 2025, up from 43.7% a few years earlier. Ecommerce is the main channel for a growing number of ecommerce businesses now, not a side channel, and your accountant needs to keep up with that shift.




Let Vexo Accounting handle your online sales, bookkeeping, VAT, tax and financial reporting, with specialist support for fast-moving ecommerce businesses.
VAT is one of the biggest risk areas for online sellers, and one of the easiest things to get wrong for an accountant who is not one of the specialist ecommerce accountants working in this space every day. It is one of the main reasons ecommerce businesses come to us instead of a general practice, and one of the main reasons ecommerce accountants exist as a specialism at all.
The UK VAT registration threshold is currently £90,000 of taxable turnover in any rolling 12-month accounting period, with a deregistration threshold of £88,000. Cross that line and registration is not optional, so we monitor your turnover and plan your VAT registration before it becomes a problem rather than after.
We also help UK ecommerce businesses decide whether voluntary VAT registration makes sense earlier, since it can improve tax efficiency and make you more tax efficient for sellers who mostly deal with other VAT-registered businesses.
Selling outside the UK brings its own VAT complications, and if you sell into the United States you may also need to think about local sales tax rules on top of UK VAT. The Import One Stop Shop scheme covers certain low-value imports into the UK, and the rules around IOSS intermediary registrations are changing again in 2026, so this is not something to leave until your annual accounts are due.
Import VAT is not simply a cost that disappears. If you are VAT registered and you have overpaid import VAT, it usually needs correcting through your VAT return, exactly the kind of detail that keeps up with sales tax and cross-border rules for you. Some ecommerce businesses only find this out once HMRC writes to them, which is exactly what an ecommerce specialist is there to prevent.

We spot opportunities and challenges early, helping you stay ahead.
Secure, real-time access, anywhere you need it.
We value your time and get answers when you need them.
Plain English with no surprises. Fixed fees for total clarity.

The right business structure at £40,000 turnover is often the wrong business structure at £140,000, and getting it right protects your tax liability as your business scales. We also help you separate business and personal bank accounts properly, which sole traders in particular often skip.
Many new ecommerce business owners start as a sole trader, which makes sense while you are testing the market. As profit grows, moving to a limited company can improve tax efficiency and lower your personal tax liability, though the right timing depends on your own numbers rather than a generic rule, and staying tax efficient matters more once turnover climbs.
We handle company formation, director remuneration planning and the move itself, so you are not left guessing, and so your business stays on top of its tax obligations throughout.
Making Tax Digital for Income Tax started in April 2026 for eligible sole traders with qualifying income above £50,000, dropping to £30,000 in April 2027 and £20,000 in April 2028. If that includes you, digital record-keeping through proper accounting software is not optional anymore, and it is one more reason tax compliance needs to sit with an accountant who understands ecommerce. Many ecommerce businesses are still filing under Self Assessment today, but that is changing fast, and good tax compliance should feel boring, not stressful.
We also handle your corporation tax, including your corporation tax return, annual accounts filed with Companies House, and self assessment, so your tax compliance sits in one place instead of scattered across different advisers.
If you are further down the road and thinking about preparing your ecommerce business for sale, clean management accounts and a clear financial history make that process far smoother. It is worth starting that groundwork years before you plan to exit, and it is one of the areas where tailored advice makes the biggest difference to what you eventually walk away with.



If you want ecommerce accountants who already understand marketplace fees, multi-channel VAT, and stock accounting, Vexo Accounting is ready to help your business. Tell us about your business, your sales channels, and where you are struggling right now, and we will come back with tailored advice and a clear, fixed price built around your business, not a generic package.
Ecommerce businesses that switch to us usually wish they had done it sooner. Vexo Accounting: ecommerce accountants for ecommerce businesses, nothing else. Get in touch with Vexo Accounting today for your free quote and find out what specialist ecommerce accountants can save your business this year.
