How the score works

Compare every accountant in New Zealand

All 1671 firms, ordered by the same published criteria.

For firm owners

Listings, scores and order are free and cannot be bought: every score comes only from the firm's own website. Separately, Backroom Ops, which publishes this guide, helps firms get found in Google and in AI search tools like ChatGPT and Google AI Overviews. Working with us has no effect on your listing or score.
