How to keep a mileage and tax log

Mileage & taxes (under Business in the menu) gathers what your tax preparer will ask for, for a year of booked and completed gigs.

1. Set your home base

Under Settings at the bottom, type your home base: a ZIP code, or a city and state like Phoenix, AZ. Leave Rate per mile blank to use the IRS business rate for the year (72.5¢ a mile for 2026, 70¢ for 2025), or type your own. Owners and admins change these.

2. Check the miles

Each gig shows its round-trip miles from your home base. Grey numbers marked est. are estimates: the straight-line distance times 1.25 for roads, there and back. Type the real miles from your odometer or a map to replace one, then click Save miles. Clear a box to go back to the estimate. Gigs with a flight in Travel aren't estimated.

3. Read the totals

• Miles and Mileage deduction (miles × the rate).
• Gross and expenses from each gig's money.
• Income by type and Expenses by type, from the gig's line items (fees, door share, merch, travel and so on).

4. Download it

Click Download spreadsheet for a CSV with every gig, its miles, the totals and the money by type. Open it in Excel, Numbers or Google Sheets, or send it to your tax preparer.

This is a record, not tax advice. Ask your tax preparer what you can deduct.
