What LEDGA does for your business

Each feature addresses a specific task that most business owners either struggle with, pay someone else to do, or simply ignore. LEDGA handles them automatically, so nothing falls through the cracks.

Professional invoices in seconds

Create and send branded invoices from your phone or laptop. Automatic payment reminders follow up on outstanding amounts so you never have to chase a client again.

Expense tracking on autopilot

Photograph a receipt and LEDGA captures the details, categorises the expense, and files it for tax time. No more shoeboxes of slips or missing paperwork.

Know your numbers, instantly

See your profit and loss, cash flow position, and outstanding debtor balances in real time. Make business decisions based on facts, not guesswork.

VAT is calculated automatically on every transaction. When submission time arrives, your VAT201 is ready and formatted for eFiling. No surprises, no penalties.

Customer management, simplified

Track every customer, every invoice, and every payment in one place. See who owes you money, who pays on time, and where your revenue comes from.
