About Us
Lightbulb Financial Services Ltd is a forward-thinking accountancy firm helping digital entrepreneurs, consultants, and professional-service businesses scale smarter. We combine automation, AI, and proactive tax planning to simplify accounting, cut admin time, and reduce your tax bill.
Whether you’re an architect, developer, legal professional, or marketing consultant, our mission is to take the pain out of finance - and replace it with clarity, control, and growth.
Simplify. Automate. Grow.
At Lightbulb, we do more than file accounts - we build automated finance systems that save hours every month.
By integrating tools like Xero, Stripe, Shopify, and Zapier, we create seamless workflows that capture data, reconcile transactions, and generate reports instantly. That means less paperwork, fewer errors, and real-time insight into your business performance.


Pay Less Tax with Proactive Planning
Tax efficiency is at the heart of everything we do.
Our experienced accountants provide strategic tax planning for professional-service firms, helping you structure your business, claim available reliefs, and keep more of what you earn.
Whether it’s setting up the right company structure, balancing salary and dividends, or exploring international opportunities with our Guernsey and Isle of Man partners - we’ll help you plan ahead, not just react.
