Gestaum Digital

Bookkeeping and a business management system are combined by Gestaum Digital, an online accounting office in Campinas, Brazil. It serves micro and small companies, and it states that it has no link to government bodies. Clients do not need to visit an office. Contact runs through its portal, its app, WhatsApp, telephone or video meetings, and the firm describes its accounting as built for businesses that want quality financial information at an affordable cost.

Digital accounting for small businesses and sole traders

The accounting service covers full bookkeeping and accounts for small firms, sole traders registered as MEI, and service providers. The firm says its platform brings the accounts and the management tools into one place, so that a business does not have to keep one set of records for accounting and another for management.

Opening a company and converting a sole trader

The firm helps clients register a new company and obtain a CNPJ, the Brazilian business tax registration number. It also helps a MEI, a sole trader, convert into a small company, known as an ME. The company says that opening a business through its online service takes a short time and that its specialists can explain the options before a client commits.

Management system linked to the accounts

Alongside the accounting, Gestaum offers an enterprise resource planning system. It covers services, finance, the sale of goods, stock and management reports, and it is linked to the accounts so that figures entered in one place appear in the others. The firm says this gives business owners a clearer picture of their company's finances and helps them plan growth.

Invoicing and digital certificates

Plans include unlimited invoice issuing, and the firm says a digital certificate is included as well, so clients can issue their documents without a separate arrangement. The plans are structured around the client's profile, and the company says clients pay only for the services they ask for.

Switching accountant

Businesses that are unhappy with their current accountant can move their books to Gestaum. The firm takes on the company's records from the previous accountant.

Member benefits for business owners

The site lists a set of benefits for owners. These include video medical consultations at any time, dental cover for consultations and treatments, access to gyms and studios, psychological, nutritional and fitness guidance, life insurance and assistance, and access to legal and financial guidance. The firm presents these as extras that come with its plans.

Quality checks and a single digital platform

The firm says its team aims to transform accounting so that small business owners can reach reliable financial information to manage and grow their companies. It says a dedicated quality team checks its deliverables before they reach clients, and that its platform combines accounting, stock and cash flow in one integrated place.
