Drive or deliver through an app? See your tax.
Put in what the apps paid you, the fees they kept, your miles and your other costs. See the tax, the National Insurance and what to put aside.
For Uber, Bolt, Deliveroo and Just Eat, and any app that pays you after taking its fee.
The gross on your statements for the year: fares or deliveries, plus tips.
The service fee or commission on the same statements.
In a car or van, 55p a mile for the first 10,000 miles and 25p after. 24p on a motorbike.
Phone, bags, parking, tolls, cleaning. In a car, van or on a motorbike, not fuel, insurance or repairs: the mileage rate covers those. On a bicycle, include repairs.
Income tax is worked out at the England, Wales and Northern Ireland rates.
Your bank shows what landed, after the app kept its fee. HMRC wants the gross as your turnover and the fee as a cost, so both sides are true and you pay no more tax for it. Lekhio books every payout that way, and nothing goes in until you approve it.
Photograph a receipt. Lekhio reads it.An estimate at 2026/27 rates, for a sole trader with this as the only income. It is not tax advice and it is not a filed figure. Lekhio prepares your figures and you always approve them.
