Indicative only. Real figures depend on logged miles, allowable expenses, and whether you also have employment income. We'll do this properly for you when you sign up.

Service fee

Uber takes ~25%, Bolt ~15–20%, FREE NOW varies. We let you set the exact split — it's allowable as a business expense.

Mileage vs actual costs

HMRC simplified expenses: 45p/mile up to 10,000 mi, then 25p. Usually beats logging fuel, insurance, repairs separately — but you have to pick one method per vehicle, per year.

MTD ITSA from April 2026

If your annual self-employed turnover is £50k+, you must file quarterly digital returns. £30k+ joins April 2027. £20k+ April 2028. We track the wave you're in.
