Features
Tally Up replaces shoeboxes and guesswork with a simple tool built for Manx sole traders. Track income and expenses, snap receipts, send quotes and invoices, log mileage, import a CSV, use Spreadsheet Mode on a laptop, watch VAT, and keep a live Isle of Man tax estimate, all in one place.
The Isle of Man has its own tax system, separate from the UK. The IoM tax year runs from 6 April to 5 April, tax returns are filed with the Assessor of Income Tax (not HMRC), and income tax bands and National Insurance rates are set by the Isle of Man Treasury. Tally Up is built around these rules from the ground up. Every feature below is designed with Manx sole traders in mind: from receipt capture that categorises expenses for your IoM tax return, to a live tax estimate that uses the correct local rates.
Snap receipts on the spot
Snap a receipt and attach it to the entry. Never lose a receipt again.
Income and expenses, in one place
Log what comes in and what goes out, against customers and suppliers, with VAT as you go. No spreadsheet formulas to babysit.
Spreadsheet Mode
Type income and expenses in a grid, like a spreadsheet. Paste rows in, fill down, save the lot. On a laptop or desktop.
CSV import
Import a bank statement, a till report, or an export from another system. Map the columns once, reuse the mapping next time.
Quotes and invoices
Send a quote, turn it into an invoice, and share a PDF. When the invoice is paid, it creates an income entry.
Know what to set aside
A running tax estimate based on what you've entered so far. No unexpected bills.
VAT, watched for you
Record VAT as you go and see when you are heading for the threshold. No year-end surprise.
Tax return, sorted
Export everything for you or your accountant in a couple of clicks.
Mileage, logged as you drive
Log business journeys, save the routes you drive most, and tag fuel and repairs to the right vehicle.
A queue of work, with nudges
List the jobs you've promised, tick them off, and get a reminder when work is overdue or ready to invoice.
Customers and suppliers
Keep customer and supplier details with the income and expenses they belong to. No separate address book to maintain.
Built for Manx tax
Manx tax bands, Class 2 and 4 NI, VAT thresholds, and the 6th October deadline.
Phone, tablet, laptop
Snap on site, review at home, file from the office. Everything syncs, no install needed.
