The bookkeeping system built around how you work

Most small businesses in South Africa end up stitching together three or four different tools to run their books: a spreadsheet for quotes, an invoicing app with a foreign billing address, a separate payroll service that doesn't quite match SARS's tables, and a shoebox of bank statements at tax time.

Retufu exists to replace all of that with one system — quotes through to trial balance, purchasing through to payroll — running in your own private, dedicated environment, priced simply, and built around how South African businesses are actually required to keep their books: VAT, PAYE, UIF, SDL, and BCEA leave, not bolted on as an afterthought but built in from the start.

Every business gets its own dedicated, private environment by design — fully set up and managed for you, with nothing to install. Your customer records, your payroll data, your financial history — never pooled with anyone else's, backed up automatically, with two-factor authentication on every account and a full activity log of every change anyone makes.
