About Us

Our firm was built on the realisation that traditional accountancy often overlooks the fast-moving world of digital entrepreneurship.

Influencers face a unique mix of income streams, self-employed status, and expenses that don’t always fit into a standard template. That’s where we come in.

From managing HMRC obligations to advising on allowable expenses and maximising your take-home pay, we deliver tailored, practical support grounded in real-world experience.

We’ve created a supportive, jargon-free environment where you can speak openly about your income, brand partnerships, and business ambitions.

That transparency helps us give you clear, actionable advice that supports your success - now and as your influence grows.

Call us on +44 7851 074 930 to get your accounting affairs in order.

Why Choose Us?

Influencing might be a new profession to some, but not to us! At One and Only Accounts, we recognise that being an influencer, blogger, or vlogger isn’t just a hobby - it’s a full-time business that demands creativity, strategy, and relentless effort.

Despite its growing impact, the influencer economy is still widely misunderstood by many traditional accountants. That’s why we’ve built a modern, specialist service tailored to the realities of life as a digital creator. We understand the mixed income streams, gifted products, brand deals, and international payments that come with the territory - and how to manage them all in a way that keeps you compliant and financially thriving.

Our approach is grounded in trust, respect, and straight-talking advice. We take the complexity out of bookkeeping, tax returns, and business admin, so you can focus fully on creating content and growing your audience. With One and Only Accounts, you get expert support from people who get what you do, and know how to help you make the most of it.

Why Influencers Need Accountants

As an influencer, you're already a pro at building audiences, landing brand deals, and unlocking multiple revenue streams. But when it comes to taxes and bookkeeping, things can quickly get complicated.

The influencer industry is still relatively new, and that means HMRC guidance isn’t always clear-cut.

From gifted items and affiliate income, to international payments and digital products, knowing what you need to declare (and how) isn’t always straightforward.

Without the right support, you risk unexpected tax bills, missed deadlines, HMRC compliance checks and even penalties!

That’s where we come in. At One and Only Accounts, we specialise in supporting influencers just like you.

We help you stay compliant, optimise your tax position, and keep your finances in great shape - so you can focus on growing your brand and hitting your business goals with confidence.

Why Hiring an Influencer Accountant Can Help

Here’s how working with One and Only Accounts can benefit you:

  • Save Time & Cut Admin: Your time is better spent creating content than managing spreadsheets. We take care of the financial admin, from tracking expenses and managing receipts to preparing and filing your tax return - so you can stay focused on growing your brand.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is influencer accounting?

Influencer accounting is a specialist service designed for content creators who earn money through sponsorships, brand partnerships, affiliate links, and platform revenue. It ensures you stay on top of your tax responsibilities, track all income sources (including gifted items), and avoid any unexpected HMRC issues. At One and Only Accounts, we make the financial side of influencing simple, stress-free, and fully compliant.

What are the 4 types of influencers?

Influencers are generally grouped by audience size:

  • Nano-influencers: have up to 10,000 followers and often enjoy strong engagement within niche communities.
  • Micro-influencers: typically have between 10,000 and 100,000 followers and offer a good balance of reach and authenticity.
  • Macro-influencers: boast 100,000 to 1 million followers and often collaborate with well-known brands.
  • Mega-influencers: have over 1 million followers and include celebrities or high-profile online personalities.

Each tier brings different opportunities and tax implications, which is where expert accounting can help.

Do influencers have to pay tax?

Yes, if you earn money through influencing, you may need to register with HMRC and pay tax. Once your income exceeds £1,000 in a tax year, you're required to file a Self Assessment tax return. This includes brand deals, sponsorships, affiliate earnings, and even gifted items in some cases. Make sure to register with HMRC by 5 October following the end of the tax year to avoid penalties.

Is it difficult to become a paid influencer?

Breaking into paid influencing takes more than just uploading content - it involves consistent effort, a strong personal brand, and an understanding of your audience and platform algorithms. While being an influencer can be fun and fulfilling, it's also a demanding career path that requires time, strategy, and resilience. Like any business, success doesn’t happen overnight.

Is it a legal requirement to have an accountant?

No, hiring an accountant isn’t a legal requirement. You’re free to manage your own finances if you prefer. That said, you’ll still need to make sure your tax returns are filed correctly and on time, and that you’re following HMRC’s reporting rules. Many influencers find that working with an accountant saves time, reduces stress, and helps them avoid costly mistakes.

What are the 3 R's of influencer marketing?

The 3 R’s stand for Relevance, Reach, and Resonance - key factors that make influencer marketing effective. Relevance ensures the influencer’s audience aligns with the brand’s target market. Reach measures how many people the influencer can connect with. Resonance reflects the genuine engagement and connection the influencer has with their followers. Together, these help brands create authentic and impactful campaigns.

What is the influencer tax on HMRC?

If you earn over £1,000 a year as a social media influencer, you must register for Self Assessment with HMRC. This means filing an annual tax return where you declare all your income and allowable expenses related to your influencer activities.

How do you declare income from social media?

Income from social media activities should be declared through an annual self-assessment tax return. You’ll report your earnings and can deduct any legitimate business expenses to reduce your taxable income. For personalised guidance, our team is here to help you navigate the process smoothly.
