In this Wave accounting tutorial for beginners, I share how you can get up and running with Wave’s completely free financial and accounting software. Although Wave accounting is a good option, my recommended accounting software for small to medium businesses is Xero: ✅ Try Xero for free and claim Xero's special discount ➜ 👉 https://xero5440.partnerlinks.io/stewart-gauld My recommended accounting software for micro businesses is Sheetify Bookkeeping: ✅ Get started with Sheetify Bookkeeping here ➜ 👉 https://www.sheetifycrm.com/products/ultimate-google-sheets-bookkeeping-template *(I'm an affiliate with Xero, as I use this software for many of our businesses. This means we will get a commission if you buy through the above link at no extra cost to you (You'll actually save with my Xero partner's discount). This helps support our channel, so I thank you in advance!) Wave is a popular FREE accounting and financial software for small businesses in Canada and the US. Wave accounting allows you to manage all your business’s financial and accounting activities from managing advanced invoicing, recurring invoicing, bills, online payments, payroll, transactions and more. ► We also have a complete beginner guide over on our website: https://stewartgauld.com/wave-accounting-tutorial/ ► Get started with Wave Accounting for free here: https://waveapps.com/ ► Interested in comparing with the Xero accounting software?
