We’re excited to announce that Upwork has chosen Keeper as its US tax partner.
Upwork is the world’s largest work marketplace and connects businesses with independent talent from across the globe. Upwork serves everyone from one-person startups to large, Fortune 100 enterprises like Microsoft and Airbnb with a powerful, trust-driven platform that enables companies and talent to work together. Independent talent on Upwork’s marketplace cover more than 10,000 skills in over 125 categories including website & app development, creative & design, customer support, finance & accounting, and AI & machine learning.
Independent professionals on Upwork can easily compile hundreds of tax-deductible business expenses each year. From home internet and software subscriptions to client meals, tech gadgets, coffee, office furniture, and even professional development courses and certifications, these expenses – both big and small – can quickly add up. Not only is it time-consuming and complicated to keep track of, but the ever-changing US tax laws make it even more challenging. As independent contractors, the onus is on them to stay informed about what they are eligible to deduct.
Beyond the challenges of tracking hundreds of expenses throughout the year, the process of actually submitting those expenses to the IRS – filling out a Schedule C tax form – regularly causes headaches for the 50-60 million people earning 1099 income in the US.
It’s because of the challenges mentioned above that we at Keeper are so excited about our partnership with Upwork. By automatically finding and categorizing their tax write-offs, U.S.independent professionals on Upwork can save money on their taxes, and they’ll also get back hours that they’d have otherwise spent on learning US tax law and subsequent bookkeeping.
Once subscribed to Keeper, independent professionals in the U.S. will benefit from in-app support and guidance from Keeper’s human tax experts, built-in audit defense, and other time-saving features – features that traditional tax softwares like TurboTax and H&R Block will charge their customers hundreds of dollars for every year.
As part of the partnership, we’re also excited to offer a 50% discount off Keeper’s $192/year retail cost to U.S.-based independent professionals on Upwork.
Keeper is the first and only tax filing software built for people with 1099 income.
Simply connect the financial account(s) that you use for work purposes, and we’ll automatically uncover hidden tax breaks that could be worth thousands of dollars in 30 seconds. At tax time, file directly through the Keeper app with the IRS and all 50 states.
Keeper is built for 1099, W-2, and supports hundreds of other income types, credits, deductions, and special tax situations.
Unlike traditional tax softwares like TurboTax and H&R Block, we’ll never try to upsell our users… We’ll never charge additional fees for multi-state income or for additional income types, and every user enjoys both audit protection and 1:1 access to an assigned in-app tax assistant, all at no additional cost.
