Everything a sole trader needs. Nothing an accountant would charge for.
Traditional software makes you do the work. Taxly does it for you — starting the second you get paid.
Auto-withhold at point of income
The moment a payment lands, Taxly calculates and ring-fences the right slice for tax — so the money you spend is truly yours.
Expenses that count themselves
Snap or forward receipts and Taxly sorts deductible expenses into the right categories, quietly lowering what you owe.
Always-accurate tax estimate
A live estimate of your bill updates with every invoice, so there are never any nasty surprises at tax time.
Guided lodgment
When it's time to lodge, Taxly walks you through it step by step. Pay a simple per-lodgment fee — only when you actually lodge.
Deadline reminders
BAS, GST and income tax key dates tracked for you, with friendly nudges well before anything is due.
Know your real take-home
See profit after tax at a glance. Understand exactly what you've earned versus what belongs to the ATO.
Auto-withhold like the big players. Priced for real sole traders.
Percentage-based tools quietly take a bigger cut the more you earn. Taxly does the same clever auto set-aside — for one honest monthly fee that never balloons with your income.
- Tax set aside automatically on every payment — not scrambled together at lodgment
- A dedicated tax pot you can see, so the ATO's share is never accidentally spent
- Smart withholding rate that adapts as your income grows through the year
- All of it for a flat monthly price — noticeably cheaper than percentage-based rivals

Questions, answered
When a payment lands in a connected account, Taxly calculates the right slice for tax and moves it into a separate tax pot. You see exactly what's yours to spend and what's reserved for the ATO — no manual calculations, no guesswork.
You pay one flat monthly subscription of AUD $44 (about USD $29). On top of that, there's a small, clearly-stated per-lodgment fee that only applies when you actually lodge a tax return. No percentage of your income, no surprise charges.
Hnry auto-withholds but charges a percentage that grows with your income. Xero and QuickBooks are powerful but built for businesses with accountants, not solo sole traders. Taxly gives you the automatic set-aside at a flat price, with a simple experience designed just for sole traders.
Yes. Taxly is designed around the Australian tax system — BAS, GST and income tax — and the realities of working for yourself here. It's made for solo entrepreneurs and sole traders who want simplicity, not a full accounting suite.
None at all. Taxly speaks plain English, categorises your expenses for you, and walks you through lodgment step by step. If you can send an invoice, you can use Taxly.
Absolutely. There are no lock-in contracts. Cancel anytime from your account and you won't be billed again — you keep access until the end of your current billing period.
