Companies in the FinTech industry: Taxfix GmbH

The industry has grown and grown out of its infancy. There are so many companies that shape the industry but not all are equally known. Who are the companies that are the glue between finance and digital technologies? In our series “FinTech companies” we give companies or start-ups from the payment and banking industry the opportunity to introduce themselves.

Taxfix GmbH

Taxfix is the mobile tax declaration assistant. Tedious completing complicated tax forms is superfluous with the app. Any smartphone owner, whether with iOS or Android, can quickly and easily create his tax return within 20 minutes. After the user has scanned their payroll tax statement and answered a series of simple questions, Taxfix calculates the amount of the tax refund. As in an interview, the Taxfix app asks the user questions. This will collect all necessary data and calculate the amount of tax refund possible. Thereafter, the user can submit his tax return directly through the app to his local tax office.

What makes Taxfix so special?

We want to accelerate the process of private taxation fundamentally and make it accessible to everyone.

In interview mode all relevant information for the tax declaration is collected.

All questions are to be answered without tax knowledge. If something is still not clear, provide info text help.

Taxfix creates the tax documents & transfers them from the app electronically to the responsible tax office. An own ELSTER certificate of the user is not necessary.

In 20 minutes, the user is finished with his tax return.
