Fateless
We are not just Fateless’ accountants
Fateless founded a studio that builds the games they want to play, for the community they know and trust. They now deliver fresh ideas, innovation and games to players around the world, which makes their financial situation unique.
For starters, they asked us if they could operate in dollars, which is highly unusual for a UK-based company, but makes sense for them. They also needed a company with extensive international tax, compliance and business expertise, as they truly do market to the world. But our relationship with them goes far beyond that, and they now take advantage of our full suite of services.
Protecting Fateless’ interests with tax and commercial advice
Our expertise spans far beyond tax and financial affairs. To date, we’ve helped them with their Video Games Tax Relief (VTGR) claim, as well as dynamic forecasting and modelling. We revisit this regularly based on market movements, as well as their changing needs and goals.
Our expertise has been instrumental in helping Fateless maximise the value of any opportunities that have – and might – come their way.
Helping Fateless with investment and financial planning
Fateless wanted to understand their investment options. We talked them through every possible option, as well as their possible advantages and pitfalls, before guiding them through their first investment round. This included the Enterprise Investment Scheme (EIS) and Seed Enterprise Investment Scheme (SEIS) advanced assurance.
They also wanted to distribute share options to key personnel, and understand how to both attract and retain key talent, which we were more than happy to help with.
Why Fateless trust StarBox to be their in-house financial team
Fateless has trusted StarBox with its financial affairs to such an extent that we are now their entire in-house financial team, and form an integral part of their leadership team. This is because of both our deep expertise in the gaming industry, as well as our commitment to delivering personalised, proactive support.
