"I tried three different accounting packages before RentalBux. None of them understood construction. I had to create my own categories for CIS, couldn't track jobs properly, and spent hours working around limitations. RentalBux had CIS deductions built in from day one. Materials, labour, subcontractor payments—everything's already set up the way construction actually works. My accountant said my records have never been cleaner."

Your Industry Has Unique Needs.
Your Software Should Too.

Whether you're a plumber, photographer, consultant, or delivery driver, your expenses and invoicing needs are unique. Generic accounting software forces you into one-size-fits-all categories, hiding the features you need and adding extra costs for industry-specific compliance. RentalBux is designed for industry professionals—offering tailored expense categories, invoicing, all in one simple solution.

Without RentalBux

  • Expense categories designed for retail, not your trade
  • Industry compliance features cost extra
  • Records that confuse your accountant

With RentalBux

  • Pre-built categories for your industry's actual expenses
  • All compliance features included—one price
  • Clean records your accountant will thank you for
