The Problem
The problem: a carrier bag in the boot is no longer enough
For years the standard approach was to keep receipts somewhere safe and deal with it all in January. Making Tax Digital ended that for anyone over the threshold — records now have to be digital, and they have to exist in something that connects to HMRC.
The practical difficulty is that thermal fuel receipts fade to blank within months, statements live in an app, and licensing invoices arrive by post from the council. Pulling that together once a year was painful. Four times a year, it needs a system.
The upside is real though. Once records are current rather than reconstructed, you know your profit as you go — which means you can put the right amount aside each week instead of guessing.
What we do for you
- Uber, Bolt and other platform statements reconciled every month
- MTD-compatible software set up, included and kept up to date
- Receipt capture app for your phone
- Recurring costs set up once and handled automatically
- Mileage tracking guidance so your log stands up to scrutiny
- A live profit figure you can check any time
- Records retained for the full period HMRC requires
How it works day to day
We connect your Uber and Bolt statements so your income comes in automatically — gross fares, service fees and tips, split out properly rather than lumped together.
For costs, you photograph receipts with your phone as you go. It takes seconds, the image is the record HMRC needs, and it means nothing fades or gets lost. Anything recurring, like your phone bill or insurance, we set up once and it flows through on its own.
We reconcile it all, categorise everything correctly, and flag anything that looks like it might be a claimable cost you have not mentioned.
What you get out of it
A live view of profit, so you always know where you stand rather than finding out months later.
A tax figure that is accurate as the year goes along, so the amount you set aside each week is right rather than a rough guess.
And when a deadline arrives — a quarterly update, a VAT return, your annual return — the work is already done. It is the difference between a filing being a task and a filing being a formality.
