Subscription — save with the annual plan

Your receipts are automatically recognised, checked for deductibility and entered directly into your tax return: securely stored, accessible at any time, no manual typing. You can ask tax questions year-round directly in the AI chat — instantly via AI, with support from human tax experts when needed, no appointment necessary. As a subscription member, you also get access to the Taxfix Academy with exclusive articles and videos on tax topics, plus member pricing on additional filings, for example for previous tax years.
The subscription renews automatically every 12 months — here's how to cancel:
- Within the first 12 months (initial term): You can cancel at any time, but the cancellation only takes effect at the end of the 12-month term. Your access remains active until then.
