What is White Label Bookkeeping?

White label bookkeeping is a B2B service where an outsourced provider (Vance & Cole) performs the accounting work, but the final deliverable is presented to the end-client entirely under the CPA firm's brand name.

Our offshore accountants are provisioned with your firm's email address (e.g., jane.doe@yourfirm.com). To your clients, Jane is just a highly competent, hard-working member of your domestic team. We stay completely invisible.

This model is the golden ticket for modern CPA agencies. You leverage your US-based personal relationships to sell high-retainer advisory services, while the high-volume, low-margin data processing is executed perfectly by offshore analysts you charge standard US rates for.

Service Architecture & Process Flow

1 Total Infrastructure Integration

White-labeling goes beyond putting a logo on a PDF. Our accountants sign strict NDAs and operate completely within your digital ecosystem.

They do not use Vance & Cole systems. We log into your instances of Karbon or Asana, we chat via your internal Slack workspace, we email via your Google Workspace, and we access your QBO Accountant portal.

2 Branded Deliverable Generation

When the month closes, our team prepares the reporting packet exactly to your specifications. Whether you prefer basic QBO exports or highly customized Reach Reporting templates, we format everything matching your exact firm hex codes and typography.

Your US-based partners simply review the document, give the nod of approval, and forward it to the client. The client experiences a massive tier-one firm output without knowing the engine driving it.

3 Direct Client Management Add-On

We train our Tier II and Tier III talent to be client-facing. Using your firm's email protocol, they can confidently request missing W-9s, chase down uncategorized Amazon receipts from the client, and schedule AP runs.

With excellent English fluency, they navigate complex vendor disputes and act as an absolute shield so your US partners never have to deal with administrative friction.

The White Label Model

How Does the White Label Setup Work?

We integrate so deeply into your firm's infrastructure that our team becomes indistinguishable from a domestic hire.

  • Firm Domain Integration

    We operate exclusively from email addresses provisioned on your company's domain.

  • Direct Client Communication

    If requested, our senior team members can handle routine client emails (e.g., requesting missing receipts) using your firm's tone and signatures.

  • Internal Slack/Teams Presence

    Our accountants live in your internal communication channels, providing real-time updates to your domestic partners.

  • Deliverable Branding

    All month-end reporting packages and dashboards are branded meticulously with your firm's logos and color schemes.

Deep Dive: Frequently Asked Questions

Authoritative answers on executing this service effectively, compiled from hundreds of firm deployments.

Not unless you tell them. We operate under a strict non-disclosure agreement (NDA) and use your firm's email infrastructure. The entire experience is seamlessly presented as your own.
Data never leaves the cloud. Our offshore staff access your systems (QBO, Xero) via secure VPNs on locked-down hardware where USB ports are disabled and printing is restricted.
Yes, that is the core business model. You pay us a flat $2,500/mo for a dedicated full-time bookkeeper, and you can bill their output to your clients taking home massive margins.
No. You contract directly with Velmer Digital LLC (our US entity). We pay our employees in the Philippines, handle all international labor law compliance, healthcare, and infrastructure costs. You just receive a single, clean US invoice.
During the 14-day onboarding period, we require you to submit your firm's brand guide (fonts, colors, hex codes, logos). Every report generated starting Month 1 will be perfectly branded to your standard.
