i have started a new business and opened an account with coconut. I had my first invoice paid in and the next morning my account was frozen due to money laundering/fraud checks. As a new business all of my business funds was paid in which subsequently means I now cannot run my business and work with my clients. I have forwarded the invoice and still my account is frozen.
This is a completely poor service as anti money laundering/fraud checks should be carried out prior to opening any new accounts?!
Coconut have now jeopardised my business and my relationship with my new clients.
I would not recommend opening an account with this organisation and I have learnt the hard way.
Stick to major high street banks for peace of mind and level of professional service as I will be doing in future.

I've loved being an early user of Coconut - the service and connectivity with their people is amazing - from super responsive in app chat, to hosted events in their offices. The app itself is superb, providing all the functionality that a freelancer needs to manage their financial and tax affairs. Sharing their roadmap and welcoming suggestions in feedback just rounds off the great experience of being a Coconutter!

Having a tough time working out what this tax kerfuffle is? Coconut is hooking you up with a solid product that combines business banking and account management with a good transaction history and invoicing built in! It even works out how much tax I have to pay on the fly so no more playing the guessing game!

Customer service second to none

Running a small company having an intuitive account that takes a lot of the guess work out is a real plus, and the selling point to me. Xero doesn't recognise it but no problem, just upload statements in one of three file formats and job done....

Great to have money in and out in one place

It's just great to have invoicing, payment and expense handling all in the same product, going through the same bank account. The stress reduction alone makes it 10/10. The Coconut team are great at responding to queries too - in the app and via the...

It's just great to have invoicing, payment and expense handling all in the same product, going through the same bank account. The stress reduction alone makes it 10/10. The Coconut team are great at responding to queries too - in the app and via the Facebook group.
For full disclosure, I'm an investor too but that just strengthens how I feel about Coconut even more.

SME struggle with banks overcharging, under-accessed accountants high costs and tax calculations struggles.
What if you could focus on your job, while one single app will automatically take care of banking, invoicing, cash flow management, accounting and taxation?
A magic? No, just Coconut "a bank and an accountant in a Coco-nut-shell".
