What We Do
Formations is a fintech startup with an innovative approach to taxes and accounting.
We provide a predictive tax and accounting solution for the self-employed.
Our customers are full-time self-employed, entrepreneurs who chose self-employment as a career.
We have developed a unique strategy that leverages technology alongside human expertise to automate bookkeeping, payroll, taxes, and benefit allocations throughout the year. This helps self-employed professionals save on taxes, secure their futures, and achieve financial well-being while reducing the time and energy spent managing back-office tasks. We believe that being independent shouldn’t mean being alone and we’re here to help.
Why Work With Us
We help real people solve real problems. We're not an enterprise solution or another startup that helps corporations be more efficient. We're build a solution that delivers real value to real people. We put people first and believe in the power of people to make a real difference in the world. It's why we chose to focus on the self-employed.
