EmLedger

EmLedger is a modern, multi-entity accounting software designed specifically for businesses and professionals who have outgrown the limitations of managing a single set of books. Unlike traditional accounting tools like QuickBooks, Xero, or FreshBooks, which charge you per company and force you to juggle multiple logins, EmLedger lets you manage an unlimited number of LLCs, subsidiaries, franchise locations, rental properties, brands, or client accounts from just one secure login. Each entity operates on its own real double-entry ledger with a dedicated chart of accounts and a complete audit trail. The magic is that you can switch between any entity with a single click or instantly generate consolidated financial statements across any group of entities. This means consolidated Profit and Loss statements, Balance Sheets, and Cash Flow reports are created automatically, with all inter-company transactions eliminated behind the scenes. No more exporting data to Excel and stitching books together by hand. EmLedger is built for bookkeepers and CPAs managing multiple clients, franchise owners overseeing multiple locations, holding companies with diverse subsidiaries, property managers with many units, serial founders with multiple ventures, and multi-brand e-commerce operators. The core value proposition is simple: one flat tier price for unlimited entities, unlimited users, and all 140+ features and 36+ reports, with no per-entity fees ever. It is the accounting solution that finally matches how modern operators actually run their businesses.

Native Multi-Entity Architecture

EmLedger is built from the ground up with multi-entity accounting as its default, not an expensive add-on. Every entity you create gets its own completely isolated, real double-entry ledger, including a unique chart of accounts, separate customer and vendor lists, independent bank feeds, and individual tax settings. Yet, all these entities live in a single, unified platform that you log into just once. This architecture ensures true entity separation for compliance and accuracy while providing you with a single pane of glass to oversee your entire portfolio. You can manage unlimited LLCs, subsidiaries, or properties without ever needing a second login or subscription.

One-Click Entity Switching and Instant Consolidation

Navigating between your different entities is effortless with EmLedger. You can switch from one company to another with a single click, instantly seeing that entity's specific dashboard, transactions, and reports. The real power comes when you need a portfolio-wide view. EmLedger generates consolidated Profit and Loss, Balance Sheet, and Cash Flow statements across any selected group of entities in one click. Inter-company transactions are tracked and automatically eliminated, so your consolidated reports are always audit-ready and accurate. This eliminates the tedious, error-prone process of manually consolidating data from separate QuickBooks or Xero files.

All Features on Every Plan, No Feature Gating

EmLedger breaks the frustrating industry pattern of locking essential features behind higher-priced tiers. Every single plan, from the entry-level Solo to the top-tier Enterprise, includes all 140+ features and all 36+ reports. This means you get access to advanced tools like inventory management, fixed asset tracking, budgeting and forecasting, 1099 contractor compliance, and multi-currency support from day one. You never have to upgrade a plan just to unlock a specific feature you need. The only thing that changes between plans is the number of entities you can run, making it a transparent and predictable cost model.

Unlimited Users and Bank Connections on Every Tier

Collaboration is seamless with EmLedger because every plan includes unlimited users at no additional cost. You can add your entire team, your external bookkeeper, your CPA, and any other stakeholders without worrying about per-seat fees that inflate your bill. Additionally, every plan includes unlimited bank connections. You can link all your business bank accounts, credit cards, and payment processors for every entity you manage, all from within one platform. This allows for automatic transaction imports and real-time reconciliation across your entire operation, ensuring your books are always up to date without any manual data entry.

Bookkeepers and CPAs Managing Multiple Clients

For accounting professionals, EmLedger is a game-changer. Instead of maintaining separate logins and subscriptions for each client, you manage every client's books from a single, centralized dashboard. You can switch between client entities in one click, and bring on new clients without adding new subscriptions or paying per-client fees. This dramatically reduces overhead and administrative burden. You can charge your clients for your capacity and expertise, not for covering the cost of their software license. With unlimited users included, you can easily collaborate with your team members on any client's books, all while maintaining strict entity-level permissions and data isolation.

Franchise Owners Overseeing Multiple Locations

Franchise owners often struggle to get a clear, consolidated view of their entire operation's financial health. With EmLedger, each franchise location can have its own separate set of books, with its own chart of accounts, bank feeds, and vendor lists. From one login, you can view each location's performance individually or instantly generate a consolidated P&L for the entire franchise group. Inter-company transactions between the corporate entity and franchise locations are tracked and automatically eliminated during consolidation. This provides a true, audit-ready picture of profitability across your entire network without the manual work of combining data from dozens of separate QuickBooks files.

Holding Companies with Diverse Subsidiaries

Managing a holding company with multiple, completely different subsidiaries is a complex accounting challenge. EmLedger solves this by allowing you to run each subsidiary as its own entity with its own unique chart of accounts tailored to its specific industry. You can create entity hierarchies and groupings to organize your portfolio logically. At tax time or for investor reporting, you can generate consolidated financial statements for the entire holding company in one click, with all inter-company loans, transactions, and eliminations handled automatically. This provides the high-level view you need for strategic decisions while maintaining the granular detail required for each subsidiary's individual compliance.

Property Managers with Multiple Rental Properties

Property managers who oversee a portfolio of rental properties need to track each property's income and expenses separately for accurate owner reporting and tax purposes. EmLedger allows you to create a separate entity for each property, each with its own bank feeds, tenant ledgers, and expense categories. You can switch between properties to handle day-to-day tasks or generate a consolidated report to see the performance of your entire portfolio. The automatic elimination of inter-entity transactions is particularly useful for property management companies that also own the properties, as it cleans up the books for a true picture of profitability across the entire real estate operation.

How is EmLedger different from QuickBooks or Xero?

The fundamental difference is that EmLedger was built specifically for multi-entity management, while QuickBooks and Xero were designed for single-company use. With QuickBooks, you need a separate subscription and login for each company, and to get a consolidated view, you must manually export data and stitch it together in Excel. This process is time-consuming and prone to errors. EmLedger, on the other hand, lets you manage unlimited entities from one login, with one-click switching and instant, automatic consolidation. It also charges a flat tier price, not a per-company fee, saving you significant money as you grow.

What happens to inter-company transactions during consolidation?

EmLedger handles inter-company transactions intelligently and automatically. When you record a transaction between two entities you manage (for example, a management fee from a subsidiary to the parent company), the system tracks it. When you run a consolidated report across those entities, EmLedger automatically eliminates these inter-company transactions and balances. This ensures that your consolidated financial statements show only the true financial position of the combined group, without double-counting revenue, expenses, assets, or liabilities from transactions that happened within your own organization. The result is an audit-ready, accurate consolidated report.

Can I give my external bookkeeper or CPA access to only specific entities?

Yes, absolutely. EmLedger offers robust, entity-level permissions. This means you can invite your external bookkeeper or CPA to your platform and grant them access only to the specific entities they need to work on. They will have no visibility into your other entities. This is perfect for maintaining confidentiality and data security, especially for bookkeepers and CPAs who manage books for multiple clients. You have full control over who sees what, ensuring that sensitive financial data remains private and secure.

Is there a free trial, and do I need to enter a credit card?

Yes, EmLedger offers a free 14-day trial so you can explore all the features and see how it works for your specific setup. The best part is that no credit card is required to start your trial. You can sign up, create your entities, connect your bank accounts, and run your first consolidated reports without any commitment or risk. This allows you to fully evaluate the platform and confirm it meets your needs before deciding to subscribe. If you choose to subscribe, you can take advantage of the early access pricing with 40% off forever.

EmLedger uses a simple, tier-based pricing model based on the number of entities you need to manage, not the features you get. Every plan includes all 140+ features, all 36+ reports, unlimited users, unlimited transactions, and unlimited bank connections. There are no per-entity fees, no per-user fees, and no hidden add-ons.

The Solo plan is $49 per month and is designed for managing 1 to 3 entities. The Growth plan is $129 per month for managing 4 to 15 entities. For larger operations needing 16 or more entities, the Enterprise plan is available with custom pricing. During the early access period, you can get 40% off forever on any plan. For example, the Growth plan, which can handle 10 entities, is effectively $77.40 per month with the early access discount, compared to over $1,150 per month for 10 QuickBooks subscriptions. EmLedger offers a free 14-day trial with no credit card required.
