Whether you are self-employed or drive for a company, Taxi-Flow keeps your records day by day: trips, expenses, taxes and reports, with no sheet to lose.
A day of taxi work mixes several realities: the regular metered trip, the medical trip, the trip to the airport, and the tips on top. Taxi-Flow puts each piece of income in its category: regular trip, medical trip, airport trip, tip or other income. At the end of a period, you see where your money really comes from, instead of a single mixed total.
Fuel, car insurance, SAAQ fees, garage and repairs, tires and maintenance, oil changes, washing, parking, phone: Taxi-Flow offers 16 expense categories designed for the job. Recurring expenses can be created automatically, and a scanned invoice can generate the matching expense thanks to automatic OCR reading.
GST at 5% and QST at 9.975% are calculated automatically on your expenses, and reports show the GST and QST totals payable. No more recalculating by hand at the end of the quarter. To understand the general framework, read our guide to GST and QST for taxi drivers and our guide to deductible expenses for drivers.
Reports cover the day, the month, 3 months and the year: income, expenses, net balance and detail by category. They export as a structured Excel file and an accountant-ready PDF report, ready to send. For the full picture of the tool, browse all of Taxi-Flow's features in detail.
Before departure, the app guides a round of about 20 inspection points. Each defect is classed as minor, to be repaired within 48 hours, or major, in which case the vehicle must not be driven. History is kept with a calendar and can be exported as a PDF. The Quebec framework of the regulation respecting taxi transport services, including its section 33, is cited as a reference point, with no promise of guaranteed compliance. Details in the complete guide to the safety inspection round.
If a collision happens, the step by step guided joint report helps you record everything: 911 emergency button, GPS location sharing, the other driver's documents scanned, photos of the damage, a sketch drawn in the app, signatures from both drivers and an official PDF. See the guide to the joint accident report in Quebec.
Do you drive in paratransit or rideshare instead? The pages dedicated to paratransit in Quebec and to Uber and rideshare drivers describe what changes for you.
