Hammock, the accounting platform built specifically for landlords, announced a deal with Intuit QuickBooks to deliver a seamless, end-to-end Making Tax Digital for Income Tax (MTD for IT) solution for accountants and their landlord clients with more complex needs.
This was officially unveiled at Intuit’s London Get Connected event on 5th March, where both companies outlined their shared commitment to supporting accountants through the transition to MTD for IT.
The collaboration enables taxpayers who must submit quarterly updates under MTD for IT to manage both property and self-employed businesses through a connected ecosystem: Hammock for foreign, joint and multi-property businesses and QuickBooks for sole trader accounting and simple landlords.
The two platforms are integrated via a deep-link connection, allowing users to move seamlessly between Hammock and QuickBooks accounts without duplication, disruption, or manual data transfer. The result is a practical, scalable solution for landlords and accountants managing clients with mixed income sources.
As MTD for IT introduces quarterly reporting obligations across qualifying income streams, accountancy practices face increased operational complexity. Landlords may also run separate self-employed businesses, jointly own properties or manage multiple properties, requiring compliant digital record-keeping across distinct categories of income.
By combining specialist Hammock property functionality with leading QuickBooks small business accounting software, the integration supports firms in delivering compliance efficiently without compromise.
Manoj Varsani MBE, CEO of Hammock, said:
“MTD for IT represents one of the most significant changes to personal tax compliance in a generation. For accountants, the challenge isn’t simply quarterly submissions — it’s managing multiple income streams accurately and efficiently.
Our partnership with QuickBooks reflects a shared commitment to supporting the profession with practical, scalable solutions. Landlords benefit from specialist property accounting, and sole traders benefit from best-in-class business accounting. Together, we’re ensuring firms don’t have to compromise.
This integration gives accountants clarity, confidence and control as MTD for IT rolls out.”
Julien Decot, Director of International Business Development and Strategy at Intuit said:
“Our priority is to provide an end to end solution for accountants and bookkeepers, so they can deliver their Making Tax Digital for Income Tax obligations on a single platform, and cater for all their different client types.
Our relationship with Hammock is significant in addressing this by simplifying Making Tax Digital obligations for a cohort of sole traders with more complex income tax structures, including landlords with joint property ownership, multiple property incomes or other income streams that also require submission. By integrating QuickBooks and Hammock, these individuals benefit from a simplified tax submission experience and improved structure around managing their finances.”
Some landlords affected by MTD for IT also operate side businesses or consultancy work, or jointly own their rental property with a spouse or partner. After the go-live of MTD, this will require workarounds, spreadsheet bridges, or fragmented record-keeping.
The deep-link integration between QuickBooks and Hammock ensures users can transition smoothly between platforms while maintaining data integrity within each system.
As HMRC progresses with the phased implementation of MTD for IT, partnerships that combine specialist expertise with scalable infrastructure will be critical for accountancy practices.
The unveiling of this new integration at Intuit’s London Get Connected event underscores both companies’ commitment to helping accountants navigate regulatory change with confidence — delivering software that reflects the real-world structure of modern clients’ finances.
