The past five years have been a period of transformation for us — a time in which we not only envisioned the future of accounting but also implemented it step by step. We introduced new systems and technologies.
While building truly "real-time" accounting, we made significant investments — clearly visible even in our balance sheet — and inevitably encountered the natural downsides of experimentation. We know that mistakes occurred during this process; for these, we sincerely apologize. We deeply appreciate that throughout this journey, we could count on you as a partner.
From 2026, however, this experimental phase comes to an end — and a new, more stable operational era begins.
The accounting technology based on real-time processing is no longer a promise for the future but a solid foundation of everyday operations.
The rapid changes in the financial and regulatory environment, as well as the growth and diversity of our client base, create a situation where the previous, often well-intentioned flexibility must be replaced by more consistent, predictable, and long-term sustainable operating frameworks.
Our goal is to support you in this new structure with the same attention and commitment as before — only with fewer uncertainties and at a higher professional standard. The current changes to our General Terms and Conditions (GTC) are part of this shift: they are not about stricter rules, but about ensuring the long-term quality, predictability, and professional integrity of our service.
We understand that adapting to new or updated conditions may take time and consideration, so we have aimed to present these changes clearly and transparently - this article serves that purpose.
1. Continuous document submission becomes a real requirement
Modern accounting technology can no longer rely on monthly one-time document submission. To provide genuinely high-quality service, invoices, receipts, and contracts must arrive at least regularly and on time — but ideally continuously. For many clients, this is already a natural routine, while for others, it is still not the standard operational rhythm.
From 1 January 2026, we will effectively enforce the deadlines and late-submission charges outlined in the GTC.
This has three goals:
protecting the quality of the service,
ensuring deadlines can be met,
and making sure that clients who cooperate responsibly are not disadvantaged because others that do not.
For companies that find document collection difficult, or where no formal financial administration or system exists, we offer a new paid service (Collection) that allows us to take over these often frustrating administrative tasks.
2. Digital tools are no longer “assistance” but core infrastructure
Continuous document submission is no longer feasible without digital tools. The foundation of this is QUiCK: e-mail submission, bulk document upload, instant upload from the browser (Chrome extension), and a central document repository — all of which ensure that materials reach our accounting systems on time, in a searchable and standardized format.
These are not extra features but the minimal technological requirements for the joint workflow of accounting and administration. When documents flow into the system this way, processing becomes consistent, deadlines become manageable, and the technological losses caused by later document-request rounds can be avoided.
3. Conditions for using “QUiCK as a financial system” from 2026
In recent years, we have provided clients with the full functionality of QUiCK — including its operation as a financial system — without additional fees, through the highest subscription tier (Multibox). Our intention was to enable as many companies as possible to try a modern digital infrastructure in a real business environment — one that supports continuous accounting but primarily helps business operations — without imposing extra costs on clients.
From 2026, we refine this framework in two directions:
Basic infrastructure (free, for all clients):
We continue to provide the QUiCK features necessary for document submission at no cost:e-mail submission
bulk document and invoice upload
Chrome extension
automatic OCR and NAV data matching
passive document repository for company, supplier, and revenue documents
Full financial functionality (not automatic, under conditions):
Using QUiCK as a financial system — with approval workflows, financial reports, and more complex processes — will no longer be an automatic part of the accounting contract from 2026.
One-time opportunity for existing clients at the beginning of 2026:
We will provide a free workshop series demonstrating the financial use of QUiCK.
Companies participating and intending to use the system will continue to access the full functionality free of charge under the existing contractual framework.
For new clients — or after the transitional period — using QUiCK as a financial system will only be available as a paid upgrade under a subscription agreement with the software provider.
Although we negotiated discounted conditions, fully free use in the future is only possible under the terms defined above.
At the same time, the basic document-submission infrastructure remains unchanged and free for all clients.
4. Introduction of a closing fee for certain companies
Responsibility-based system
Until now, our principle was that during the closing period — except for a few special cases such as early financial statements or audits — we did not charge a separate closing fee. This reflected our approach that if we can account continuously throughout the year according to contractual terms, the closing process does not result in disproportionate extra work.
However, due to recent changes in audit thresholds, some companies are no longer required to undergo an audit even though their size and operational complexity still necessitate a closing process involving significant responsibility and additional work.
Therefore, from 1 January 2026:
For companies with revenue above HUF 300 million but not subject to audit, a closing fee equal to one monthly fee will be charged.
This is not a general price increase but recognition that for certain companies, the complexity and responsibility of closing are not adequately reflected in the monthly fee. For smaller, lower-risk companies, previous practice remains unchanged.
5. Additional fees
Clearer boundaries between bookkeeping and beyond-bookkeeping tasks
The table of additional fees for 2026 has also been updated. The goal is to ensure that:
core bookkeeping tasks are clearly included in the monthly fee,
while ad hoc tasks not directly or only indirectly related to ongoing company operations (special reports, specific calculations, one-off analyses, ad hoc consulting, etc.) appear as clearly identifiable, separate service items.
The purpose of this change is to keep traditional bookkeeping predictable, while providing greater professional and pricing flexibility for specialized, higher-value tasks.
If you have any questions regarding the changes, feel free to contact us. We hope these updates will bring reassurance, as the ultimate goal is to maintain and further improve service quality.
Summary of the GTC modifications effective from 1 January 2026
Below is a clear and itemised summary of all changes.
Expansion of subcontractor network
BOTKOV Szolgáltató Betéti Társaság has been added as a new subcontractor.
This modification enhances transparency and imposes no additional obligations on clients.
Changes related to annual financial statements
We continue to be responsible for preparing and approving the annual financial statements, however the GTC now specifies that preparation of the annual report is an additional service for additional fee in certain cases listed in the Fee Schedule.
Connected companies reporting
A Typeform link has been added to support clients in affiliated company reporting more easily and quickly.
Clarification regarding the QUiCK application
The GTC now states that the Service Fee includes only the basic infrastructure of the QUiCK application by default; full financial functionality is included only if the Client meets the necessary conditions.
Interpretation of fees without discounts
We clarified that where the Fee Table uses the term “1 monthly accounting fee,” it refers to the fee without any discounts.
Mandatory extra fees
The GTC states that if the Client’s revenue exceeds HUF 300 million and the company is also subject to audit, the Client must pay the additional fees associated with both criteria according to the Fee Schedule.
Refusal to prepare a trial balance in case of outstanding debt
If the Client requests a trial balance but has outstanding debt exceeding two months, the Provider is only obliged to fulfil the request after the debt is settled.
Deadline for accepting fee changes
The deadline for accepting fee modifications has been extended from 15 to 30 days.
This aligns with the time available for signing documents via DocuSign.
