"I've been doing my own tax returns for 15 years and always dreaded it. This took me 20 minutes and I didn't need to touch a spreadsheet once."
Dave
Plasterer, Manchester
You didn't start your own business to spend evenings doing paperwork. But HMRC isn't giving you a choice — MTD (Making Tax Digital) is coming, and the fines for non-compliance are real. We built 123Tax for people who want to stay compliant without learning accountancy software.

How it works
If you can take a photo and send a WhatsApp, you can do your tax.
Photograph any receipt, invoice, or expense and send it to our 123Tax WhatsApp number. That's it. No spreadsheets, no uploads, no logins.
Our system reads your receipts, matches them to HMRC-approved expense categories, and keeps a running total. Check your summary any time by messaging us.
Each quarter, we send you a summary. You reply to confirm and we submit your MTD return to HMRC on your behalf. Done.
Government deadline
If you earn over £50,000 self-employed, you must keep digital records and file quarterly from April 2026. This extends to those earning over £30,000 from April 2027. Non-compliance penalties start at £200 per missed submission.
