Memberships Explained...
We are a publisher of information related to our FREE Software. We sell technical documentation and access to videos related to our software. That is how we make money (in addition to accepting donations).
When you make a purchase, you are given access to the download page associated with your purchase for 1 year. Thus, you are a MEMBER for a year. Because you will have access for one year, you will gain access to any and all upgrades to the item(s) you purchased for that year. Please download items you purchased upon first access, and please use your copies of the information as opposed to our site copies as much as possible to keep our site traffic down. Check back occasionally for upgrades to your info and certainly check back just before your 12 month access expires. Put it on your calendar today with a one or two week early reminder so you don't miss the opportunity to download any upgrades to your information at the end of the time period.
For consumer membership purchases, we aren't in this to gain annual renewals for life. We are in this for educating you in a way that commercially makes sense for both of us. With this 12 month access do downloads, it enables us to get documentation out in stages and in imperfect form, for quicker access to consumers -- and then it allows us to improve on imperfections during your membership period, leaving you with an equal or better product than was available at time of purchase.
For commercial membership purchases, we expect to get annual renewals as long as you are commercially using our products. This is a very self regulated process, that can only be considered Karmic in nature.

Each item below is delivered as part of a separate membership group that provides member access for downloading for 1 year from date of purchase.
1) The Definitive and Final Word on Small Business Accounting - PDF Format -- $19.95
This is a 50 page pdf document that is geared towards Small Business owners who want a big picture view on why accounting has been so confusing and tough in the past, and we provide "Best Practices" and methodologies that will simplify and clarify things in ways you never dreamed possible. Accounting is just addition and subtraction for goodness sake. Don't let what they've done to it sink in! This book will assist you with unwinding cognitive knots that have been carefully tied over the past several decades and it will cognitively prepare you for very simple and liberating accounting and business changes that are in fact well within your grasp today with relatively minimal effort, although you may not recognize them right now. We teach you how to do Tax Accounting first, and we explain why that then frees you up dramatically with regards to your Point of Sale systems and your cost accounting -- and most will be singing in the streets once we lay all this out for them in the simple manner. |
2) The Complete User's Guide for ZAP Accounting Software Part A - PDF format -- $19.95
This is a 75 page, fully illustrated PDF document that details all aspects of the software. All equations are documented and fully explained. All items related to every tab are explained. All processes and procedures for downloading transactions and reconciling are fully explained. All javascript functionality is explained in detail (which isn't much). This document is created from a Google Sheet (believe it or not). That turned out to be the best documentation platform for quickly creating and maintaining the detailed documents for this project (believe it or not). It prints exceptionally well with one small issue -- and that is we can't control the page breaks -- but as you will see, no text is cut in half. Some images are partially on one page and continued on the next -- but that isn't as bad as it sounds -- and what you don't get from this is a whole bunch of white space or squeezed images which you will find when you someone is trying to make each page look great instead of an entire section as a hole. Also, since we didn't have to worry about layout, this thing is packed with more images than you can imagine and that makes reading and understanding much easier. |
3) The Complete User Guide for ZAP Accounting Software Part A - DIGITAL format -- $99.95
This is the same as item 2 but it is the actual Google Sheets file we used to document the Software. You can take the file and modify the content and text in it as you wish. For anyone wishing to take a copy of the software and modify it -- and then document the modifications, this will give you a HUGE headstart -- as you will only need to go to the relevant tabs and add information, and you can add tabs ad infinitem. |
4) Educator 1 -- Bank Statements and Data Download Files For the Pre-loaded Data - CSV and PDF format -- $9.95
We have created mocked up bank statements and real download files for the data that comes pre-loaded in ZAP Software. This is exceptional for Accounting Training and Education. We suggest starting with the completed file as it is downloaded and teach accounting. Then have the students make a copy of that downloaded file, wipe out the data and then rebuild the file as if it was their own business using the faux bank statements and the download files provided. We give you everything you need to teach others everything the need to know about small business and personal accounting. We ask that every student purchase a copy of this information. With this information and a teacher who has purchased the Instruction Guide for their own use, a student can reap many rewards for a $9.95 investment in documents to help them practice their accounting. |
There's more coming...
Accounting is universal. We will be translating all of this into many languages. We will be targeting those who are benefitting from micro lending programs to help them understand how to track their finances like the big boys, so as they grow, they will have the opportunity to grow in their accounting prowess too.
