Bibek P.
FigsFlow changed how we produce our engagement letters and proposals. It is easy to setup and use - has pre-built templates for ACCA. The good think we like about the software is that it is easier to edit and make changes in each proposal and engagement letter as per client needs.
Another feature that was really helpful was when sending proposal for multiple inviduals and companies, it generates one proposal but multiple engagement letter to each entity and person as required by ACCA. This saved lots of time for single proposal for same family members and group companies.
Ron B.
Ability to edit each proposal and enagement letter is the best feature. We have templates, but each client want something to change which can be done instantly in FigsFlow.
Madela Sanjose
Figsflow blogs have become a trusted source of information for me as an accountant, especially when it comes to Making Tax Digital. Their full MTD guide breaks down digital record-keeping, quarterly reporting, and software compliance in a way that actually makes sense, making the whole preparation for transition doable for both me and my clients. I also like their broader topics, automation, onboarding tips, and HMRC updates which support the day-to-day work I do.
Lovela Scantte
As an accountant I’ve tried many onboarding tools, but FigsFlow is the best. It generates compliant proposals in under a minute and creates customisable engagement letters, transforming our workflow. Pre-loaded templates (meeting the standards of ACCA, ICAEW, CIOT, etc.) support compliance and save hours.
FigsFlow is a profit booster. Highly recommended. Try the free 30-day trial: you won’t regret it.
Leonard Duncan
Loving the experience so far..... The nice feature is that each Proposal or Engagement letter can be customised different from the template, making few client specific changes.
In the morning at my firm, I quickly list all my engagement letters in draft and send them one by one, after fine tuning them.

Explore our FAQs to learn how FigsFlow simplifies your workflows and boosts efficiency.
What are the AML & KYC requirements for accountants in the UK?
UK accountants must comply with the Money Laundering Regulations 2017, conduct customer due diligence (CDD), identify politically exposed persons (PEPs), check sanctions lists and maintain audit-ready records for HMRC and professional-body inspections.
How do I verify a client’s identity?
Verification usually involves checking official ID documents, proof of address and screening against global sanctions and PEP lists. Firms must keep these records securely and ensure they can be presented for regulatory inspections.

Non-compliance can result in heavy fines, regulatory sanctions, reputational damage or even criminal liability.
