About Bench
Bench is an online bookkeeping service for U.S.-based businesses, small and growing — operating today as an Employer.com company.
We started Bench to take bookkeeping off business owners' plates for good — so you can spend your time running your business, not reconciling it.
Where Bench stands today
Here's a quick timeline of where Bench has been, and where things stand today.
Bench has helped business owners get their books done by real bookkeepers, backed by software — for over a decade.
Bench paused operations.
Bench was acquired by Employer.com.
Service resumed under Employer.com ownership.
Bench is fully operational, staffed by its in-house team, with Employer.com continuing to invest in the bookkeeping business.
Same model, same team, doing the work we've always done — now with the backing to keep doing it.
"I have used Bench for 5 years. Their bookkeeping services have helped me keep my numbers straight and they are always available to answer questions. Bench has an easy to use platform. The new owners have made a noticeable difference in processes."
Your data stays yours
Bench uses read-only access to your financial accounts — your transactions can be imported for bookkeeping, but no one can move your money. Every bookkeeper passes background checks, and you can export your completed work anytime, even after your subscription ends.
