Built for Australian Tax Agents
Practice Management for Tax Agents & BAS Agents
Lodge BAS, tax returns, and TPAR for all your clients from one platform. Multi-client management, bulk lodgement, agent declarations, and full TPB compliance — plus built-in invoicing, bookings, and a client pipeline from sole traders who need an agent.
Everything Your Practice Needs
A Modern Platform for Tax Professionals
OneBookPlus combines ATO lodgement, client management, invoicing, and practice analytics in one platform — so you can stop juggling multiple subscriptions.
Multi-Client Management
Add unlimited clients with ABN validation, entity details, TFN storage (encrypted), and CUREL registration. See all your clients in one dashboard with their lodgement status and upcoming deadlines.
Direct ATO Lodgement via SBR
Lodge BAS, Company Tax Returns, Trust Returns, Partnership Returns, Individual Returns, and TPAR directly to the ATO. Your RAN and SSID are embedded in every submission as the registered intermediary.
Bulk Lodgement
Lodge dozens of BAS and tax returns in one batch. Select validated returns, review the summary, and submit sequentially with progress tracking. See results for each client in real-time.
TPB-Compliant Workflow
Every lodgement follows the TPB-mandated review, verification, and declaration process. Agent declarations are recorded with timestamps. Full 7-year audit trail for compliance.
Client Invoicing Built In
Bill your clients directly from OneBooksPlus. Create professional invoices for tax preparation, BAS lodgement, and advisory services. Track payments and outstanding balances per client.
Practice Analytics & Deadline Dashboard
Track your on-time lodgement rate against the ATO benchmark of 85%. See live BAS deadline counts — how many are due this month, how many are overdue — cross-referenced against your actual submission history. PI insurance expiry alerts so nothing slips through.
Simple Setup

Stop overpaying
How much are you spending on software?
Most small businesses stitch together 4-6 tools that don't talk to each other. Here's what that typically costs.
Real-world scenario
A day in the life: Karen's tax practice
How a Brisbane tax agent uses OneBookPlus during tax season
Karen opens her practice dashboard at 8:30am — 340 clients in her book, 45 tax returns due this month. She sorts by deadline and picks up where she left off yesterday.
For each client, she reviews their financial data: income from employment, rental properties, investment dividends, and business income. OneBookPlus pre-fills the return from connected data sources. She reviews, adjusts deductions, and validates against ATO rules before lodging.
By noon, she's lodged 8 returns. Each client gets an automatic email with their tax summary, estimated refund amount, and a copy of the lodgement receipt.
In the afternoon, she handles BAS lodgements for her quarterly clients. The BAS form pulls GST data automatically — she reviews G1, 1A, G11, 1B, validates, and lodges in batches. Her practice dashboard shows 92% of this month's lodgements complete, revenue tracking at $28,000 for the month, and 3 new client enquiries from her booking page.

The Network Effect
Get Clients Automatically
Sole traders and individuals use OneBookPlus to prepare their income tax returns for free. But they can't self-lodge ITR through third-party software — the ATO blocks it. So they click “Connect to Agent” and get matched with you.
Sole trader prepares their ITR on OneBookPlus (free)
They can't lodge it themselves (ATO restriction for third-party software)
They click "Connect to Agent"
They're matched with your agency on the platform
You receive a pre-populated return — saves hours of data entry
You review, lodge via PLS, and charge the client
OneBookPlus handles invoicing and payment
More individuals on the platform = more leads for you. More agents = better matching for individuals. Everyone wins.

Frequently Asked Questions
Common questions about OneBookPlus for registered tax agents and BAS agents.
Is OneBookPlus a registered DSP with the ATO?
Yes. OneBookPlus is a registered Digital Service Provider with the ATO. We connect via the secure Standard Business Reporting (SBR) gateway using PLS (Practitioner Lodgement Service) for tax agents, and direct lodgement for businesses.
Can BAS agents use this platform?
Absolutely. When setting up your agent profile, select 'Registered BAS Agent'. You'll be able to lodge BAS, IAS, and TPAR for your clients. Income tax return forms (CTR, TTR, PTR, IITR) will be hidden since they require tax agent registration.
How does client management work?
Add clients with their ABN (validated via the ABR), contact details, entity type, and TFN (encrypted at rest). Register the client-agent relationship with the ATO via CUREL. Then prepare and lodge any form type for that client — their details are pre-populated.
What's the difference between this and LodgeiT?
OneBookPlus is an all-in-one platform. Beyond tax lodgement, you get client invoicing, appointment bookings, CRM, and a client pipeline from sole traders who prepare their ITR on the platform and need an agent to lodge. LodgeiT is lodgement-only — you'd need separate tools for everything else.
How does the client pipeline work?
Sole traders and individuals use OneBookPlus to prepare their income tax returns for free. Since they can't self-lodge ITR through third-party software, they click 'Connect to Agent' and get matched with a tax agency on the platform. You receive a pre-populated return — saving hours of data entry — and lodge it for a fee.
Is there a limit on the number of clients?
No. The $49/mo price covers unlimited clients. Whether you have 5 clients or 500, the price is the same.
What about security and compliance?
MFA is mandatory for all ATO access. Every action is logged with a 7-year audit trail (TPB requirement). TFNs are encrypted at rest. Sessions have strict idle timeouts (15 min) and maximum duration limits (24 hours). ABN validation is re-checked every 30 days.
