Tools for Tax Time

What tools can I use to assist with my tax return?

There are many tools online that can be used to assist in record keeping, and to generate reports for tax time. These tools allow you to easily generate and create regulatory compliant tax reports in a few simple steps, among other helpful features.

There are typically two ways you can import your CoinSpot transactions to these platforms, these are via an API or by downloading your .CSV files from CoinSpot and uploading them.

When using an API it is very important to provide READ ONLY access to a third party and not full access.

To assist you with setting up your API Key, please have a read of our how to set up your API Key article.
The tools below are easy to use and easy to set up. If you would like to try these tools yourself you can read the following articles to find out how to use cryptotaxcalculator.io and koinly.io with your CoinSpot account.

CryptoTaxCalculator

At CryptoTaxCalculator, the team is building a platform to make understanding tax obligations simple and straightforward. Their tools help identify, track and organise crypto activity across hundreds of exchanges and blockchains with ease. Their reporting can assist in saving time and make your transaction history transparent and easy to understand.

Whether buying and selling, or venturing into other activities such as staking, NFT trading, and more, CryptoTaxCalculator is able to assist. With categorisation options for airdrops, staking rewards, and more, you will be able to keep track of even your most involved crypto transactions for tax purposes.

The majority of transactions will be auto-categorised, but the platform’s categorisation options also give individuals the ability to customise their tax reports to their exact personal circumstances. Once your transactions have been imported and categorised, users will be able to use the CryptoTaxCalculator reconciliation engine to identify any outlying transactions that need a bit of extra attention. Any instances that need manual review will be grouped into high, medium, and low impact for ease of access, giving user’s the building blocks needed to complete an accurate crypto tax report.

Once completing the reconciliation process, you will be able to select the financial year and inventory method to be applied to the crypto tax report. With an overarching report summary, capital gains report, income report, and more available, you can download the exact information needed to facilitate your crypto taxes.
