Sage teams with SumUp on free UK tax tool ahead of Making Tax Digital deadline

Sage teams with SumUp on free UK tax tool ahead of Making Tax Digital deadline

Sage Group plc said Monday it’s teaming up with fintech firm SumUp to offer a free accounting and tax-filing tool aimed at UK sole traders, just weeks before new HMRC digital filing requirements take effect. “Merchants do not start a business for the administrative side of things,” said Felix Lamouroux, who heads global banking at SumUp. Sage’s Gordon Stuart added that many sole traders are still “unprepared for the change ahead.” Timing is crucial here. Starting April 6, sole traders and landlords earning over 50,000 pounds from self-employment and property will need to keep digital records, submit quarterly updates to HMRC, and eventually file annual tax returns through compatible software. All of it falls under Making Tax Digital for Income Tax, or MTD.

Global HCM Software Market Update (June–July 2025) – Key Trends, News & Forecasts

Global HCM Software Market Update (June–July 2025) – Key Trends, News & Forecasts

The Human Capital Management software market continued to expand robustly through mid-2025, driven by cloud adoption, AI innovation, and rising demand from businesses of all sizes. A recent industry report projected the global HR/HCM and payroll software market to grow from about $35.3 billion in 2024 to $57.8 billion in 2029, reaching $91.7 billion by 2034. This implies a healthy ~10% annual growth, with North America currently the largest region and Asia-Pacific leading in growth. Notably, small and mid-size businesses are a fast-growing segment – the SME segment is expected to expand ~13% annually through 2029, outpacing large-enterprise growth. This reflects how cloud-based HCM solutions are increasingly accessible to mid-market and SMB customers worldwide. Indeed, new vendors targeting SMBs have quickly captured market share.

This fragmentation highlights the continued opportunity for both major and emerging HCM vendors across all regions. Vendors are differentiating through advanced technologies, deeper
