As a freelance web developer
As a freelance web developer, sending payment links for project milestones is a dream. No more chasing invoices, just quick payments. EUR is missing, I hope it will be available soon.

I wasn't planning to write a review
I wasn't planning to write a review, but the recent payment links update is an absolute game-changer: I use the reusable links instead of invoices all the time!

Great for non UK residents
GoSolo made setting up my UK company and sort code account as a non-UK resident incredibly easy! The onboarding was seamless and lightning-fast, even on a weekend. The app and web admin are intuitive, speedy, and a joy to use. I’m beyond thrilled with the service—highly recommend

My customers love the tap to pay
My customers love the tap to pay feature and how easy it is to pay with their phones. It’s made my checkout process faster than ever without buying any POS terminals.

Great service
Still can't believe how easy it was to register my Ltd company. Great service for switching over from being a sole trader. And the invoice reminders are a lifesaver – really helps me get paid on time.

FAQ: GoSolo for Builders and Construction Workers

How is GoSolo different from a regular bank account?

GoSolo is built for business. While banks focus on consumer banking, we offer tools for invoicing, sales tools for accepting payments online and in person, payment tracking, and more – all tailored to Ltd company owners and small teams. With GoSolo, you're getting not only a business account – you can build your business from scratch in a day and start getting paid instantly.

No problem – you can still open a GoSolo business account for free and start getting paid with the lowest fees on the market.

Yes, and GoSolo makes it easy. With a dedicated business account, you can separate personal and business finances, accept payments, and stay compliant — all from your phone.

Is GoSolo safe?

Yes. We partner with Adyen – the same global payment processor used by Uber, Meta, and Spotify. Your money is safeguarded, and your data is encrypted.

GoSolo works great for:

  • Electricians
  • Plumbers
  • Decorators
