If life were a hamburger, tax would be the pickle - no one likes eating it but it’s always in there, and no burger would be complete without it. The great news is that Bitpanda, Bitpanda Pro and the crypto tax solutions provider, Blockpit, have joined forces to make your life a lot easier.
The tedious task of filing your tax returns for cryptocurrency and metals trading has just gotten a lot easier. Effective immediately, Bitpanda, Bitpanda Pro and Blockpit, one of Europe’s leading providers for crypto tax filing, are happy to announce that they have entered into a partnership.
Bitpanda and Blockpit are a perfect match: Bitpanda makes it as easy as possible to buy digital assets like Bitcoin, Ethereum and XRP, as well as digitised gold or silver and the recently-launched Bitpanda Crypto Index.
In the meantime, Blockpit takes care of everything related to taxes: you can easily sync your accounts via the API import function or just import a CSV file. This way, you can monitor the development of your portfolio across different brokers and exchanges in real-time and generate tax reports in a user-friendly way.
Founded in 2017, Blockpit is based in Linz, Austria and has set out to improve trust and increase the necessary transparency of blockchain-based financial markets with compliance solutions software. Blockpit’s goal is to make the filing of taxes on cryptocurrency transactions for individuals and businesses alike as easy as possible.
In most countries, including Austria, cryptocurrency transactions are considered “taxable events”. For instance, the following acts are considered a “sale of cryptocurrency” under Austrian law: if you exchange a cryptocurrency into a fiat currency such as EUR, USD and others, if you pay in a cryptocurrency when buying a product or service, and, if you exchange/swap one cryptocurrency for another cryptocurrency or for another crypto-asset, producing gains and losses.
You get the picture: if you do a lot of trading, it is easy to quickly lose track of all your transactions.
To celebrate our partnership, Blockpit offers new users an automatic discount on the first tax year licence of their Blockpit subscription. In order to get the discount, you need to register your new Blockpit account through Bitpanda or Bitpanda Pro.
If you sign up via the link in the “History” section of your Bitpanda account, or via the link in the “Partners” section of your Bitpanda Pro account between the 27th of October, 2020 and the 25th of November, 2020, you will receive a discount of 55% on your Blockpit subscription for the tax year 2020 (which also unlocks all previous years for free). Or, in other words, the 55% discount applies to the current tax year and unlocks tax reporting for 2020 and all previous years.
After the 25th of November, a regular discount of 10% for every additional tax year will apply if you purchase your new licence from the 26th of November, 2020 onwards.
