Frequently Asked Questions
Is the Tax Only plan available to anyone?
No. It’s exclusive to the Digits Partner Program and billed to the firm.
Why do my clients see only Inbox, Documents, and Connections?
This is expected. Tax Only clients have a restricted view. Accountants have full access to ledger tools; clients do not.
Does the Tax Only plan count toward Partner Program points and tiers?
Yes! Each Tax Only client counts as an “Add a new client” action and earns points toward your Partner tier.
Can clients log in?
Yes — optionally, as restricted operators with access to Inbox, Documents, and Connections only. Firms retain full control.
Does the Tax Only plan include AP/AR, bill pay, invoicing, or dashboards?
No. It’s a simplified ledger tier. Upgrade anytime if those needs arise.
Can I export everything for the tax preparer?
Yes. From Ledger → Download Financial Package, export the Ledger, Trial Balance, P&L, Balance Sheet, and Cash Flow to Excel in one click.
