YouTubers, TikTokers, podcasters, streamers, OnlyFans and Patreon creators — we work with UK influencers across every platform. Here's where we add value beyond a generalist firm.
YouTube AdSense, Twitch payouts, TikTok Creator Fund, brand sponsorships, affiliate income, course sales, merch, Patreon, OnlyFans — all reconciled into one accurate set of books, with currency conversion handled.
Once your annual income passes around £50k, incorporation usually saves you significant tax. We model the break-even, handle the switch, and structure dividends to keep your take-home as high as legally possible.
Free products, all-expenses trips, exclusive brand collabs — HMRC treats these as taxable income at market value. We handle the accruals and disclosures so you don't get a surprise bill at year-end.
Cameras, lighting, editing software, studio rent, travel for shoots, talent fees, costumes, training courses, broadband apportionment. Most generalist accountants miss 30–40% of legitimate creator deductions.
Most accountants do one or two creator returns a year — if any. Here's what tends to slip until HMRC takes an interest.
Barter deals, gifted products, all-paid trips. Many creators don't realise they're taxable. HMRC are increasingly aware of social-media income and have launched dedicated nudge campaigns at creators.
Equipment used for both content and personal life. Generalists either claim 100% (audit risk) or 0% (left on the table). We run legitimate apportionment and document the basis defensibly.
Creators earning £200k+ as sole traders pay punitive personal tax bills they could have avoided with timely incorporation, dividend planning, and a partner shareholder structure.
Once turnover crosses £90k (including foreign sponsorship income converted to GBP), you must register for VAT. Most creators don't realise — until HMRC catches up and backdates the bill.
"Switched from a high-street firm who treated my YouTube income like it was a paper round. Sutton Roff incorporated me, restructured my sponsorship contracts, and saved me about £18k in the first year alone. They actually understand AdSense reporting and how to handle PR gifts."
YouTubers (any niche), TikTok and Instagram creators, podcasters, Twitch streamers, OnlyFans creators, Patreon creators, course sellers, newsletter operators, and multi-platform creators. We work with anyone earning from content — from pre-monetisation to seven-figure annual income.
Rough rule: if your annual content income is consistently above £50k, a limited company usually saves you tax. Below that, sole trader is simpler and cheaper to run. We model your specific numbers in the free 20-min review and show you exactly what you'd save (and the admin overhead) before you commit either way.
Yes — if there's a quid-pro-quo (you posted/mentioned/reviewed in exchange), HMRC treats the market value as taxable income, even if no money changed hands. We help you log gifts properly, accrue the tax, and structure relationships with brands so you're not blindsided. Genuine no-strings gifts (rare in influencer marketing) are different.
Multi-currency reconciliation built in. We handle the W-8BEN setup so US tax isn't withheld at source, convert your USD payouts at the right HMRC FX rates, and reconcile platform reports against your bank deposits monthly. International creators are our normal — not an exception.
Fixed monthly fees from £80+VAT for starter creators (under £50k income), from £280+VAT for established creators on a Ltd structure (£50k–£200k), and from £680+VAT for top-tier creators with multi-revenue streams, brand companies, and merchandise lines. HMRC enquiry defence to £5,000 included. Free 20-min review before you commit.
