Bankeo and GEM-BOOKS: Simplifying the daily lives of Quebec SMEs and entrepreneurs by integrating a cloud-based accounting platform with professional accounting support!
July 16, 2026
Quebec City, May 2, 2023 - Bankeo and GEM-BOOKS are proud to announce their partnership to make the Bankeo platform available to users of GEM-BOOKS, a Quebec-based cloud-based accounting software designed for entrepreneurs. Bankeo’s mission is to drive the financial success of entrepreneurs by connecting them with their ideal accountant.
“We have clients who, without any accounting background, are able to quickly get started with their bookkeeping and make great strides in using our accounting platform. It’s at pivotal moments, such as filing a tax return or closing out the fiscal year, that Bankeo will enable them to access professional support,” noted Rémi St-Onge, GEM-BOOKS’ representative in Quebec.
“Bankeo stands out because it enhances the user experience for GEM-BOOKS users by giving them quick, free access to vetted accountants who are proficient in our accounting software,” says Mathieu Brunel, CEO of GEM-BOOKS. This combination makes Bankeo a powerful ally in supporting all software users looking for high-quality accounting assistance.
“For accountants, it is becoming increasingly difficult to continue using multiple accounting software programs in their operations, given workforce challenges and the complexity of managing these processes. This reality is making the accounting market increasingly inaccessible and forcing construction entrepreneurs to choose the accounting firm’s software rather than the client’s. It’s simpler, faster, and less expensive to find an accountant who is already familiar with the software the business uses,” said Arnaud Bertrand, CEO of Bankeo.
Bankeo will be integrated directly into GEM-BOOKS’ accounting software and website, allowing entrepreneurs to connect with an accounting specialist directly.
