UK FinTech firm MyFirmsApp has been named as the best new online app by US publication Accounting Today.

MyFirmsApp is the world leader in mobile technology for accountants and has been recognised in the magazine’s list of top new products for 2017.

The MyFirmsApp team has created 2,000 apps for accounting firms since the company was launched in the UK in 2013 and there have been over 200,000 downloads on to clients’ smartphones.

The FinTech service is now available in eight countries.

“We are absolutely thrilled that MyFirmsApp has been named as the best new online app for accountants,” said Joel Oliver, CEO, MyFirmsApp.

“Having their own customised app helps accountants maintain a position of prominence on their clients’ and prospects’ smartphone home-screens, which brings the accountant and client closer together, protects the future and helps win new business.

“Cloud technology provides a fantastic way of responding to this mobile-first environment without a huge investment in hardware.”

The service is paid for via an affordable monthly licence fee which includes design, build, delivery, a marketing pack and ongoing support.

MyFirmsApp is currently the only fully approved and proven platform to provide tools such as GPS mileage tracking and photo receipt management.

All online portal and accounts software logins can be held in the app too, creating a single interface for clients.
