How it works
Three simple steps
If you can send a text message, you can use Meter Max. Here is the whole idea.
-
Answer a few questions
Your name, what you drive for, and your car or van. It takes about two minutes, and you only do it once.
-
Put in your money and miles
At the end of a day or a week, type in what you earned, anything you spent, and your business miles.
-
See what to save for tax
The home screen shows your profit so far and how much to put aside, updated every time you add something.
What it does
Everything a driver's books need
Meter Max handles the tax rules for you, and explains each choice in plain English before you make it.
Takings from every app
Record a day or a whole week from Uber, Bolt, Amazon Flex, cash jobs and more. The app's cut and your tips are kept separate, so you can see exactly what reached your bank.
Expenses, with receipt photos
Fuel, insurance, repairs, your phone, your badge and licence. Pick a category and Meter Max tells you if it can be claimed. Snap the receipt so you never lose it.
Business miles
Add your miles for a day or a week. See whether HMRC's mileage rates or your actual car costs save you more, before you choose.
What to set aside for tax
Income tax, National Insurance and student loan, worked out on your profit so far. No nasty surprise in January.
Making Tax Digital and VAT
Prepare your quarterly updates, VAT returns and Final Declaration from your records, and send them to HMRC from the app when you're ready.
Ready for your accountant
Share tidy quarterly accounts, a profit and loss summary, or a spreadsheet file of every entry, straight from your phone.
Invoices
Doing account work or your own customers? Make a numbered invoice, share it, and mark it paid when the money arrives.
Pensions made simple
Keep track of what you pay into a pension and the tax relief you get, with plain guidance before you open one.
Locked and private
Lock the app with your fingerprint, face or PIN. There's no account to sign up for, and nothing is stored on our servers.
