HMRC’s software list says TradeKit covers sole trader and UK property income and can send your tax return. What HMRC’s list says

Who TradeKit suits

Sole-trader tradespeople who want quotes, invoices and MTD filing in one phone app, subcontractors in the Construction Industry Scheme who want their deductions and monthly returns in the same place, and trades who would like to start on a free plan that still sends quarterly updates and the Final Declaration.

Good to know

TradeKit is built for sole-trader tradespeople, and it runs the job side of the work, with quotes, invoices, card payments and CIS, as well as the tax. It costs £10.99 a month or £99.99 a year after a 30-day free trial with no card, and its comparison table says the prices it lists are list prices excluding VAT. When the trial ends without a subscription, your account moves to a free plan that keeps your records, mileage, receipt photos, unlimited quotes, 3 invoices a month and your MTD quarterly updates and Final Declaration, so we show it as a free MTD option. The Final Declaration covers self-employment, UK property and foreign property, but TradeKit says dividends, employment income, pensions, savings interest, capital gains and partnership income are not included. Bank transactions come in from a CSV or PDF statement rather than a live feed, so we do not mark it as having bank feeds. Your accountant gets a free read-only login. TradeKit is a web app that works in your browser and on Android through Google Play, and its user guide says a native iPhone app is in development. We did not find anything about several properties, jointly owned property or furnished holiday lets. We checked this on 25 October 2026.

What TradeKit works with

Receipts
TradeKit reads the amount, shop, date and items from a photo of a receipt and picks the HMRC expense box, asking you when a receipt could go two ways. TradeKit’s page about receipts
Your accountant
Your accountant gets a free read-only login to your books, can ask about any record and sign off each quarter, and one tap builds them a CSV, a summary PDF and every receipt image. TradeKit’s page about working with an accountant
Payroll
Not stated
Spreadsheets
You can import a CSV or PDF statement from any UK bank, and your records export to CSV whenever you want them. TradeKit’s page about spreadsheets

What HMRC’s Self Assessment software list says about TradeKit

If you are sending a Self Assessment return for the 2025 to 2026 tax year, HMRC keeps a separate list of commercial software for that yearly return, apart from its MTD software list.

HMRC’s Self Assessment software list, as we read it on 31 October 2026, names no product from KIH Technologies Ltd, the company that provides this software.

GOV.UK last updated HMRC’s list on 23 October 2026, and we read it on 31 October 2026. HMRC does not endorse Acrenvo or any product in its list. HMRC’s list of software for your Self Assessment return

Weighing TradeKit against other products

Hear about price changes once a month

We’ll email you a link to confirm first. Once you confirm, Acrenvo will send one email a month summarising the MTD software price changes we have checked and any changes to HMRC’s list of software for MTD for Income Tax, with links to the pages on Acrenvo where each change is recorded. Each email may also pick out one dated finding from that month’s record and list the coming MTD for Income Tax deadlines. If nothing changed in a month, we send nothing. In future it may also carry one advert and news of paid guides or templates from Acrenvo, each clearly labelled for what it is. Every email has a stop link, and stopping takes a single click.

This is separate from the deadline reminders, and signing up for one does not sign you up for the other. No account is needed. How we use your email address. Past emails and what each one holds
