FAQs

The free trial is 30 days – can I use this up before I purchase?2025-03-12T16:08:22+13:00

Yes, but to be eligible you MUST purchase a plan before midnight 30 April 2025. If you are midway through a trial you can navigate to the “My Account > Plans” section when you are logged in here, and cut your trial short.

How do I move over from my old accounting software?2025-03-11T07:36:10+13:00

Afirmo makes switching seamless by requesting your tax records and any tax overpayments from your previous provider – all included for free with the purchase of an annual Rocket or Supercharge plan. We’ll securely transfer your records, and if you have any overpaid tax, you can choose to receive a refund or add it to your Afirmo Bank Wallet to save for future tax bills.

What happens to my tax records if I move to Afirmo from another provider?2025-03-19T16:23:24+13:00

As your tax agent, Afirmo will be able to get these records from Inland Revenue, or your previous accountant, or previous online tax tool provider, with ease. They are obligated to hand over the information, so you are not disadvantaged by moving to Afirmo at any point. 

Can I trust Afirmo to deal with my tax obligations?2024-12-02T15:05:40+13:00

Yes, absolutely. Afirmo can be trusted because we are a registered tax agent with Inland Revenue. This means that Inland Revenue have granted Afirmo the right to file tax returns and make tax payments on your behalf. We employ accountants and tax professionals to ensure that you get the best advice possible. Tax professionals have also helped us design our automated Tax Tool so you know the calculations are correct. 

Can I use another tool for accounting and Afirmo for tax?2025-03-19T16:20:56+13:00

Yes, we know that some accounting tools don’t allow income tax to be dynamically calculated and an Inland Revenue tax return prepared. You can use any accounting tool for your business accounting and Afirmo for your business tax management (for example Xero for accounting, and Afirmo for tax if this is your preference).

Is Afirmo like Hnry?2025-03-22T14:13:02+13:00

No Afirmo is not like Hnry. Afirmo offers a significant step up in terms of the amount of control you have over your money and how you access it. Check out our full comparison of Afirmo vs Hnry here. 

Is Afirmo like Xero?2025-03-22T14:11:47+13:00

No. While Afirmo and Xero both provide online accounting services each offer very different services. Afirmo is an easy-to-use simple tax and accounting system designed so you don’t need to know very much at all about accounting. Xero is a complex accounting system that to operate, requires a reasonable knowledge of accounting. Check out our full comparison of Afirmo vs Xero here. 

If I use Afirmo will my accountant stop talking to me?2025-03-19T16:27:47+13:00

Only if you want them to! You can use Afirmo and still use your accountant if you want to, or you can use Afirmo’s accountants to help you with tax questions and file your income tax and GST returns for you. You choose. 

What is an Afirmo Bank Wallet?2024-04-02T12:03:40+13:00

Afirmo has partnered with Bank of New Zealand (BNZ) to offer you a bank wallet account. This means that BNZ has issued Afirmo trust accounts, and Afirmo adds bank accounts under these trust accounts so you can use them to receive business income, and save for tax bills. Afirmo cannot access these funds as they are held on trust for you as our business customer. 

Can I use Hnry and Afirmo at the same time for my tax services?2024-12-02T14:28:38+13:00
No, Hnry and Afirmo cannot be used together. Hnry is a basic tax tool aimed only at sole traders. Afirmo has an array of features and services that are not part of Hnry’s service offering. Hnry is a closed system meaning that you can’t use other support services like Afirmo if you do use them. Afirmo is a one-stop-business-support-shop – Hnry is only an online tax service provider.

This platform is not just a tool; it’s a solution that alleviates the burden of tax preparation, allowing businesses to focus on growth and profitability without being bogged down by the complexities of financial management.

I signed up to Afirmo wondering how much use it would be to my existing business. Turns out it is helping to refine and streamline my business so much! I’m no longer daunted by the end of the tax year.

The team at Afirmo are an absolute pleasure to work with. They’re passionate, professional and genuine and stand behind who they are and what they do and do it to a high standard

Unbelievably excellent service! A huge thank you to Afirmo for going above and beyond to help me out.

With Afirmo, I effortlessly have all my tax info and income details readily available, while Afirmo handles the entire process in the background. The customer service is spectacular. It’s never taken the customer services team longer than 10 minutes to reply to me and they always come back with a resolution.

Really efficient and honest advice in regard to taxes. Would definitely consider Afirmo for tax purposes and would recommend to anyone.
