Why it exists

Going from wages to an ABN catches people out

On wages, tax comes out before you see the money. As a subbie, the whole payment lands in your account and the tax bill turns up months later. SubbieMate keeps a running figure of what isn't yours to spend.

Tax set-aside on the home screen

Takes what you've invoiced, subtracts your expenses and supplier bills, and works out the tax on the profit using the ATO rates. Shows your bracket, how close you are to the next one, and how many cents of each extra dollar to keep.

Sole trader or company

Personal tax brackets plus Medicare for sole traders. The company rate for a Pty Ltd. Add wages from another job and it allows for the higher bracket.

Invoices that look the part

Your ABN, a proper "Tax Invoice" once you're registered for GST, and your PayID and bank details with the invoice number as the reference. Sent as a PDF by email or text in a couple of taps.

Purchase orders

Raise a PO for materials against the job. When the supplier's bill comes in, it becomes an expense and comes off your profit, so the tax figure stays right.

Expenses in seconds

Fuel, tools, insurance. Every expense you add lowers what you need to put aside. GST is split out when you're registered.

Know who owes you

Owed and overdue totals on the home screen. Mark invoices paid as the money lands.

The tax figure is an estimate to help you plan, not tax advice. It doesn't include offsets, super or PAYG instalments. Check with your accountant.
