Not sure what your crypto is actually liable for?
Most crypto investors know they probably owe something — they just do not know how much, which transactions triggered it, or how to report it correctly. Transaction history is spread across three exchanges, two wallets, and a hardware device you set up in 2021. HMRC’s guidance is not short. The deadline is not moving.
- Gains and losses scattered across multiple exchanges and wallets, unreconciled
- No clear picture of whether staking rewards or DeFi income count as taxable
- Self assessment deadline approaching with crypto figures still not calculated
What sorted looks like
All your exchange data and wallet transactions pulled together, every disposal calculated using the correct HMRC pooling rules, and your self assessment filed accurately and on time. You will know your liability before it is due.
- Every exchange and wallet reconciled into one accurate gains and losses report
- Staking, DeFi, and NFT transactions correctly classified under HMRC rules
- Self assessment prepared, reviewed, and submitted — crypto schedule included
- Fixed fee from £150 — the price is clear before any work begins
What clients say after their tax return
Crypto or otherwise, the pattern is the same: clarity on the numbers, confidence in the filing, and considerably less to worry about.
Absolutely brilliant service. Prads is so efficient and knowledgeable. For the first time I feel well supported and informed over my self assessment returns and tax advice in general. Thank you!
Prads was very fast and communicative with my personal annual filing.
Everything your crypto tax return needs
From calculating gains to filing the return, the work is handled end to end — with clear explanations at each stage so you understand what you owe and why.
Crypto Capital Gains Calculation
Every disposal — coin sales, swaps, NFT sales, and gifting — is calculated using HMRC’s share identification rules, including same-day and 30-day bed-and-breakfast matching. Losses are identified and claimed where applicable. You receive a clear gains report before anything is filed.
Included in self assessmentSelf Assessment with Crypto Income
Staking rewards, mining income, airdrops, and DeFi yield are treated as income by HMRC in most cases — and need to appear on your SA100 alongside your capital gains. Both schedules are prepared and filed together. Fixed fee from £150 for the complete return.
Fixed fee from £150HMRC Compliance and Disclosure
If previous years have missing or incomplete crypto disclosures, a voluntary correction is considerably less costly than waiting for HMRC to ask first. We prepare and submit amended returns or disclosures where needed, with a clear explanation of the liability and any interest implications.

What makes the difference for crypto clients
Crypto tax is one of the more technical areas of UK personal tax. Here is what you should expect from an accountant handling it.
HMRC pooling rules applied correctly
Crypto disposals are not calculated on a simple first-in-first-out basis. HMRC requires same-day matching, 30-day bed-and-breakfast rules, and then the section 104 pool — in that order. Applying them incorrectly produces the wrong gain figure. We apply the rules as written, not as commonly assumed.
Plain English on every liability
You will not receive a completed return and a number to pay without understanding where it came from. Each client gets a clear explanation of what triggered the gain, what reliefs have been applied, and what the resulting liability is. That is what informed means in practice.
Fixed fee, no hourly surprises
Self assessment with crypto income starts from £150 — a fixed one-off fee, not an estimate subject to revision when the transaction count comes in. If your situation is complex enough to warrant a different price, that is agreed upfront before any work begins. The price match promise applies: show us a lower quote and we match it.
Up and running in four steps
The process is designed to need as little from you as possible. Most clients are sorted within a few weeks of getting in touch.
Get a fixed quote
Complete the short quote form with some basic details about your crypto activity — number of transactions, exchanges used, and the tax year in question. You will receive a fixed fee and a clear scope of what is included, usually the same day.
Share your transaction data
Export your transaction history from your exchanges and wallets — most platforms have a CSV download in the account settings. Send it across and we handle the reconciliation, the pooling calculation, and the classification of any income. You do not need to do the maths.
Review your gain and liability
Before anything is filed, you receive a clear summary of your taxable gains, any income from staking or DeFi, the reliefs applied, and the resulting tax figure. You review it, ask any questions, and approve when you are ready.
Filed, confirmed, done
Your self assessment is submitted to HMRC and you receive confirmation. You will know exactly what you owe and when it is due — which is, frankly, the way it should be. No more spreadsheets, no more guessing, no more leaving it until January.
“Prads and his team are the best. Very professional, easy to work with, and always on hand to answer any questions we have. Cannot recommend them enough!”
Answers to the questions people actually ask
Do you understand how HMRC treats staking rewards, DeFi income, NFTs, and crypto swaps — or just straightforward coin sales?
All of the above. HMRC’s crypto guidance distinguishes between capital disposals — sales, swaps, and gifting — and income events such as staking rewards, mining, liquidity pool returns, and certain airdrops. Each is treated differently on the tax return. We work with clients across all of these transaction types and apply the correct treatment to each. You will not need to explain the difference between a disposal and an income receipt before getting a useful answer.
What does it cost to have my crypto tax return prepared?
Self assessment with crypto starts from £150 as a fixed one-off fee. That covers the gain and loss calculation, the income classification, and the full SA100 submission to HMRC. If your transaction volume or situation is more involved — multiple years, DeFi complexity, or a prior-year disclosure — we agree a fixed price upfront before any work begins. We also offer a price match promise: show us a like-for-like quote from another firm and we will match it.
My transaction records are spread across four exchanges and a hardware wallet — is that a problem?
It is the most common situation we encounter. You export what you have, send it across, and we do the reconciliation work. Where exchange APIs allow it, we pull data directly. Where records are incomplete or an exchange has closed, we work with what is available and document the approach — HMRC accepts reasonable estimates supported by evidence. Most clients come to us with records in some state of disarray and leave with a complete, accurate filing.
Do I need to commit to anything ongoing, or can I just use you for this year’s return?
There is no contract and no obligation to use us again. Each self assessment is priced as a one-off fixed fee. If you want ongoing support — for example, to keep track of gains in real time across the year — that is available, but it is your choice, not a condition of working with us.
Do you work with crypto tax software such as Koinly, Recap, or CoinTracking?
Yes. If you have already run your transactions through a crypto tax platform and have a gains report, we can work from that output and incorporate it into your self assessment. If you have not used any software, we handle the calculation ourselves — you simply provide the raw transaction exports. Either route produces the same result: an accurate return filed with HMRC.
Can anything be done to reduce the amount of crypto tax I owe?
Within HMRC’s rules, yes. Losses are offset against gains in the same year, and unused losses can be carried forward to future years — but only if they are formally reported on your return, even if no tax is due. The annual capital gains exempt amount also applies to crypto disposals. We identify and apply every available relief as part of preparing your return. What we do not do is suggest arrangements that fall outside HMRC’s guidance — the penalties for that are considerably worse than the original tax bill.
