Subscriptions, equipment, travel and client income, recorded in the time it takes to type a message. No new app, no spreadsheet.
Contracting in tech means your expenses are scattered across app-store receipts, SaaS renewals, hardware orders and the odd train ticket to a client site. None of it is hard to record — it’s just easy to forget. SubReady sits in WhatsApp, so recording an expense takes less effort than ignoring it.
“Paid £42 for software subscription” — typed once, categorised as Software, confirmed instantly. Renewals from your bank statement get picked up too.
Laptops, monitors, peripherals — forward or photograph the receipt and it’s filed properly.
Train tickets, mileage, hotels for on-site days — recorded in seconds from wherever you are.
Insurance, memberships, training and certifications — all captured and categorised.
Record payments as they land and create client invoices straight from a message.
Upload your bank statement PDF monthly and SubReady reads the transactions — it never connects to your bank.
Everything you send builds into organised digital records. Invite your accountant by email for read-only access and a one-click export pack — and revoke it whenever you like. As Making Tax Digital rolls out for sole traders, SubReady keeps your digital records and quarterly figures prepared. See where MTD stands.
One thing you can safely ignore: the Construction Industry Scheme. CIS is a construction-sector arrangement and generally doesn’t apply to IT contracting, so SubReady keeps it entirely out of your way.
