What Pepper covers

Pepper keeps invoices, quotes, credits, recorded payments and manual purchase records in your own database. Attach supplier evidence and download a month, quarter or year for your accountant.

Pepper has no bank feeds, online payment processing or bookkeeping ledger. It does not read receipt images: you enter purchase values yourself. Tax periods summarize stored records and do not file a return.

Review Wave’s current plans for your situation. Pepper has no Wave migration tool. Keep earlier records accessible and check a sample export with your accountant before switching.
