Your Mission Can’t Wait for Your Books to Catch Up.
Account Cloud provides fractional nonprofit accounting built around ASC 958 compliance, restricted fund tracking, and financial reporting your board, grantors, and auditors can trust — so you can lead with confidence.
Fund Accounting Done Right — From the Ground Up
Why Account Cloud
Controller-Level Expertise — Without the Full-Time Cost
We know what it's like to manage a lean team with high stakes. Grant deadlines don't move. Auditors show up whether you're ready or not. Most accounting solutions weren't built for this reality.
Account Cloud is a nonprofit-only practice. Our controllers understand ASC 958 from the ground up — not as an add-on learned after the fact. Fractional accounting means you get senior-level expertise right-sized for nonprofits with $250K–$5M in annual revenue.
- Nonprofit-only accounting practice — no for-profit clients, no divided attention, no generalist shortcuts
- Built around ASC 958 — not retrofitted from for-profit software or workflows
- Experienced with fund structures, donor restrictions, grant compliance, and IRS reporting
- Transparent flat-fee engagements — no hourly billing surprises, ever
- Optional integration with Account Cloud Unity — our purpose-built nonprofit accounting platform, free for qualifying organizations
Getting Started Is Simpler Than You Think
Book a free consultation. Tell us about your organization, your current accounting setup, and the gaps you're trying to close. This is a working conversation — not a sales pitch. We'll ask real questions and give you honest feedback on where things stand.
Get a scoped proposal. Based on your fund structure, transaction volume, grant portfolio, and reporting needs, we'll put together a clear scope of work and a flat monthly fee. You'll know exactly what you're getting and what it costs — before we begin.
We build your books the right way. We begin with a fund structure review, build or restructure your chart of accounts for ASC 958 compliance, and start delivering clean monthly financials. No long ramp-up. No hand-holding required.
Common Questions
Not necessarily. We can work within your existing setup and assess what's working and what isn't. For nonprofits that need a stronger foundation, we may recommend Account Cloud Unity — our purpose-built nonprofit fund accounting platform, free for qualifying organizations — but it's never a requirement to start.
Our fractional controller engagements are designed for nonprofits with $250K to $5M in annual revenue — organizations large enough to need real financial infrastructure but not yet at the stage where a full-time controller makes financial sense. We also work with early-stage nonprofits getting their books set up correctly from the start.
Bookkeeping records transactions. What we provide goes several layers deeper: fund structure design, ASC 958 compliance, restricted fund tracking, financial statement preparation, and board-level reporting. Think of it as a fractional controller engagement — not a transaction entry service.
We act as an extension of your finance function. Board members get financials they can read and act on. Auditors get organized, reconciled documentation instead of a last-minute scramble. When the audit wraps and the board meeting ends, your leadership should feel informed — not overwhelmed.
Yes — and this is a core part of every engagement. We organize fund activity, reconcile restricted balances, prepare supporting schedules, and coordinate with your auditors directly. Clean, well-structured books consistently lead to faster, lower-cost audits. Not sure what type of financial examination your organization needs? See our guide: when does your nonprofit need an audit vs. a review?
Engagements are scoped based on your organization's size, transaction volume, number of funds, and reporting requirements. We use flat monthly pricing — no hourly billing, no invoice surprises. Book a free consultation and we'll put together a proposal specific to your situation.
Most engagements are up and running within two to three weeks of proposal acceptance. We start with a fund structure review, then move into regular monthly deliverables. You'll see a difference in your first month.
