Our merged RDEC scheme product is here!

Claims with an accounting period that starts on, or after, 1 April 2024, must be prepared using the merged RDEC scheme, which combines the previous RDEC and SME schemes into one.

The merged RDEC scheme is complex – we make it manageable.

The merged RDEC scheme may have been introduced with simplification in mind, but in reality, it’s increased the complexity. Multiple claim pathways, evolving compliance requirements, and added scrutiny from HMRC can make the process feel overwhelming.

If you’re risk-averse, navigating this change requires a reliable solution. If you’re already comfortable with the scheme, the extra time spent gathering information and preparing claims means that efficiency is more important than ever.

Handling the merged RDEC scheme with confidence:

- Compliance first approach
  WhisperClaims’ compliance engine adapts the workflow to your specific claim. It ensures you follow HMRC’s latest rules, automatically applies the correct scheme logic, and flags ineligible claims early.
- Efficiency and quality prioritised
  Our structured workflow streamlines your R&D claims without cutting corners. Focus on what matters most, while WhisperClaims handles the heavy lifting, saving you time and reducing errors.
- Easy to onboard
  Simply log in and get started immediately. WhisperClaims integrates directly into your workflow with no complex or costly onboarding.
