What our clients say

Our clients are the core of our business. We are measured by every client, and we are thankful that we can share feedback from some of them here:

Our valued partnership with Pitt Town Anglican Church

"Church finances are quite complex. We can be sure we're ticking all the boxes without having to know all the ins and outs ourselves. I would thoroughly recommend Exdia. I know they have a lot of experience with churches."
Ann - Pitt Town Anglican Church

Our valued partnership with Lighthouse Church Wollongong

"Multiple buildings, multiple ministries, multiple entities, tax deductible status - complicated and outside my speciality. We recognised we needed help. I love that Exdia do have a focus on ministry and churches." Jonathan - Lighthouse Church, Wollongong

Our valued partnership with St Andrews Anglican Church, Roseville

"It's really allowed me to be managing and looking at how the finances are supporting the ministry of St Andrews, more than whether I'm getting my debits and credits right, and doing all the bookkeeping."
David - St Andrews Anglican Church, Roseville

More Valued Partnerships...

"As a church planter, I have enough on my plate without learning the ins and outs of church finances! Exdia completely set up our financial management professionally and affordably – leaving me able to focus on ministry, confident our finances are in order."

“We have loved working with Exdia. They have set up some great structures that allow us to see the current state of our finances and cash flow, and that helps us make better informed financial decisions as we budget to pursue our vision. They are quick, reliable and responsive to our needs.”

“I was overwhelmed, anxious, and confused with the thought of getting the church books done each month. After finding Ed and Exdia, stress has become a thing of the past. They were able to manage us to become ATO compliant in BAS, PAYG and STP systems. Ed and the team always provide us with timely and friendly service. They always put us at ease and make doing the books hassle-free.”

“I know I can always 100% rely on Ed and the team! They always provide accurate and efficient service with incredible patience and kindness. I trust Exdia completely and am so thankful for their work and support.”
