Set it up once and we’ll do your data entry forever.

With Outright, there’s no software to install, no complicated setup process and no need to track down every receipt from the dawn of time. Instead, we use our secure online accounting connection to download data directly from your financial institutions and retail accounts, such as:

Once you’ve linked your accounts, Outright starts importing your transaction history and continues to update your data every night so you always have an accurate, up-to-date view of your finances — without the data entry hassle of other desktop accounting software.

Outright does not have the authority to deposit, withdraw or move money — only to download your transaction history — so your finances are always secure.

Online accounting that’s as safe as Fort Knox.

When it comes to your data, we know security is at the top of your list. That’s why we use the same 256-bit SSL encryption that major financial institutions use to protect their data. Plus, we stop hackers and viruses in their tracks with McAfee, one of the most trusted names in online security. Rest assured that we’ll never sell, trade, share or publish any information you enter into Outright.

You stay in control

Don’t worry. When you sign up for Outright, you’re not giving us free reign over your accounts. We will NOT have the ability to deposit, withdraw or transfer money — only to download your transaction history, so you’ll always have an accurate, up-to-date view of your finances.

Safer than your computer

If all your data is stored on your computer, what happens when your hard drive crashes or you get a virus? Yep, you lose everything. But not with Outright. With our accounting and budgeting software, your data is stored online in our secure data center, so it will survive even if your computer doesn’t.

Export with one click

Anytime you want a copy of your entire transaction history, you can download it as a spreadsheet with just one click. It’s your data — you should have full access to it, 24/7.

See your business like you never have before.

Any small business accounting software can give you a profit and loss statement — Outright gives you a whole new way to see your business, with a wide variety of reports^† that you can actually understand. The bottom line is important, but a clear picture of where you’re money is going and where it’s coming in can take your business to the next level.

Easy-to-read reports^†

We know you don’t have time to pour over reports trying to find the data that really matters. We listened to our users and designed reports based on their feedback, so you can find what you need fast.

Up-to-the-minute data

Your financial accounts are constantly changing — new sales coming in, new expenses going out. Outright understands this and updates automatically any time there’s a new transaction so your reports are always spot on.

What is Outright?

Outright is online accounting software for small businesses. Outright automatically imports your sales and expense transactions from your online accounts each night through a secure, read-only connection and categorizes your transactions into IRS-approved categories. It gives you easy-to-read reports, a profit-and-loss statement^†, and other important metrics for your business, so that you can see how you’re doing.

How do I setup Outright?

After signing up, you’re prompted to connect your online accounts to Outright through a secure, read-only connection. Outright then downloads your transaction history, categorizes your transactions, and shows you how your business is performing. That’s it! Best of all, Outright will continue to import your transactions on a nightly basis so that you’re always up-to-date and on top of your business.

Which of my online accounts will Outright integrate with?

Outright integrates with thousands of banks and credit cards. Outright also integrates with PayPal, eBay, Amazon, Etsy, FreshBooks, and many others.

What about cash transactions and mileage? Can I enter those into Outright?

Yes! Outright lets you manually enter both cash transactions and mileage, so you can track them in the same place as everything else. Our free iPhone app lets you enter these transactions on the go, and it automatically syncs with your online accounts.

Is Outright secure?

Absolutely. At Go Daddy, we take security seriously. We use 256-bit SSL encryption to secure your connection when you're working in your Outright account, and McAfee blocks hackers and viruses from reaching your data. We adhere to TRUSTe standards to keep your information private.

Also, we link to your accounts using a read-only connection. This means that Outright cannot make changes to your accounts.

It says Outright is free. How do you make money?

While most customers find that the free version of Outright works great for them, some decide to upgrade to Outright Plus, our premium version. Outright Plus includes additional tax reporting features, including annual taxes, estimated quarterly taxes, and sales tax, for $9.95 per month^*. If you’re interested in Outright Plus, you can find out more after you sign up for your free account. Why don’t we sell it up front? Because your bookkeeping software is such an important part of your business, you deserve to try it before you commit. We’re confident that you’ll love it.

How much data entry is required to use Outright?

Not much! Outright automatically downloads and categorizes transactions for you. Changing a transaction’s category is easy, and Outright learns from your changes so it correctly categorizes future downloads.

How is Outright different than QuickBooks?

Great question! Outright is very different from QuickBooks accounting software. Whereas QuickBooks is a full double-entry accounting program that requires work and effort to use, Outright is easy to use and quick to set up. We only give you the basics you need to run and manage your business--no feature bloat here! Outright is designed with the sole proprietor and LLC business in mind. If you’re a corporation or larger small business with multiple employees, you might consider a system like QuickBooks. But if you’re a smaller business wanting to see where your finances stand and be ready for taxes, you’re in the right place with Outright.

Does Outright have a mobile application?

Yes! Outright’s iPhone app lets you enter transactions on the go, and it automatically syncs with your online accounts.
