MoneyWorks Accountants Edition

MoneyWorks bridges the gap between simple yet limited small business accounting software and expensive, over complicated ERP systems.

Thank you for taking the time to download your special support copy of MoneyWorks. The download includes a complete pdf of the MoneyWorks manual (accessible under the MoneyWorks Help menu). For more succinct instructions however, we recommend that you use the link below to download the special accountants notes which are more targetted to the needs of accountants.

For information on the MoneyWorks 9 Asset Register see the Fixed Assets section of the MoneyWorks manual.

MoneyWorks Gold Downloads

Click the link below to download the required MoneyWorks installer. If downloading on Windows, you should Save the downloaded installer (instead of clicking the Run button), then double-click the downloaded file to install.

Note: You should check with your client whether they are running the latest version of MoneyWorks (MoneyWorks 9). If they are not running MoneyWorks 9, you will need to download the older MoneyWorks 8, 7 or 6 installer, which will require a separate MoneyWorks serial number. Versions before 6 are not supported.

Important: It may be that you have some clients using current and older versions of MoneyWorks. If you need to install several copies, you should first install the older one (e.g. MoneyWorks Gold 7), but change the name of the installation directory when prompted. Then install MoneyWorks Gold 9 into the default directory. If you need to open an older version MoneyWorks file, do not double-click it as double-clicking an old version file will start the latest installed version; instead start (say) MoneyWorks Gold 7 from the Start or Applications menu, then click the Open button.

     MoneyWorks Gold 9 for Windows*

     MoneyWorks Gold 9 for Mac

*Note that this will install the 64 bit MoneyWorks Gold for Windows, leaving any older version of MoneyWorks Gold in the untouched in the Program Files (x86) directory. Existing shortcuts will refer to the old version, and will need to be updated. If you would prefer the 32 bit version for Windows, click here.

Express and Cashbook Files

If your client sends you a Cashbook or Express file, you will be able to open it with the same version MoneyWorks Gold, work on it, and return the altered file to your client. They will be able to open it with their Cashbook or Express, provided you have not added incompatible information (for example, if you create a creditor or invoice, Cashbook will not be able to open the file).

MoneyWorks Subscriptions

MoneyWorks Subscriptions

With MoneyWorks, you have the choice of buying a licence, or subscribing to one, or a combination of both.

MoneyWorks subscriptions enable you to pay a low, monthly fee for continued use of MoneyWorks. Here's how it works:

  1. Create or login to your MoneyWorks account
  2. Register your Visa/Mastercard credit or debit card details1
  3. Choose the product to which you wish to subscribe
  4. Agree to the Terms and Conditions
  5. Your credit card will be charged for the first month's subscription, and a MoneyWorks activation code will be sent to you
  6. Every month from that date, your credit card will be automatically charged for the next month's subscription.
  7. To modify or suspend the subscription, simply log into your MoneyWorks account

A subscription will cover any updates and upgrades released while the subscription is current, but does not include support (which will be charged separately).

Note that, with subscriptions, MoneyWorks will occasionally check back to our server to check your subscription status. For this reason you need to have internet access every ten days or so.

If you suspend your subscription, or otherwise don't pay, your MoneyWorks will stop working. Simply renew the subscription for continued access.
