Indy: simple bookkeeping for UGC creators in France

3 min readUpdated By the LeQGC team

This article contains partner links: we only recommend tools we find useful for UGC creators.

In short

Indy is a French bookkeeping app for freelancers, sole traders and companies alike. Connect your bank account, your transactions get sorted, and your returns are prepared through the year. With our link, your first month is free. LeQGC tracks your collabs and payments; Indy handles the books.

Why a bookkeeping tool when you do UGC

From your first contracts, questions pile up: how much to declare, when, which expenses to keep, how to keep track of several brands paying on different dates. A spreadsheet works at first, then quickly leads to gaps.

A tool like Indy files everything as you go, so tax time stops being a year-end chore.

What Indy does

  • Bank connection: your transactions come in by themselves and get categorized.
  • Sole trader or company: Indy adapts to your legal status in France.
  • Tax returns: prepared from your transactions instead of redoing everything by hand.
  • Invoices: Indy also creates invoices, and presents itself as an approved e-invoicing platform in France.

Common questions

Is Indy only for France?

Yes, Indy is built around French rules and statuses. Outside France, look for a local bookkeeping tool or an accountant.

Does LeQGC replace bookkeeping software?

No. LeQGC tracks your collaborations, quotes and the payments you receive. Bookkeeping and tax returns belong in a dedicated tool like Indy, or with an accountant.
