Koinly vs. Tax Partners: Which One is Better for Your Crypto Taxes?

Crypto investors often face a choice between using software like Koinly or hiring a professional accountant for tax compliance. While Koinly offers automated tracking and tax reports, Tax Partners provides in-depth tax expertise, audit support, and personalized planning.

Let’s compare the pros and cons of Koinly vs. Tax Partners to determine which one truly protects your crypto investments.

1. Automation vs. Expertise

  • Koinly: Automated, easy-to-use platform, but lacks accuracy for complex transactions.
  • Tax Partners: Human expertise ensures 100% accuracy, proper transaction categorization, and error-free reporting.

2. Audit Protection

  • Koinly does not offer audit support—if the CRA questions your filing, you’re alone.
  • Tax Partners provides full CRA audit defense, ensuring compliance and protecting you in case of audits.

3. Record-Keeping & Data Security

  • If Koinly shuts down, you risk losing tax records—a major problem since CRA requires 6 years of tax records.
  • Tax Partners securely stores your tax records for 6 years as per CRA guidelines.

4. Crypto Tax Law Compliance

  • Koinly may not always update tax laws in real-time, leading to errors.
  • Tax Partners stays up-to-date on CRA tax laws, ensuring full compliance.

5. Cost vs. Value

  • Koinly offers a flat pricing model but lacks personalized service.
  • Tax Partners may cost more upfront but ensures lower long-term tax liabilities, audit defense, and financial guidance.

Conclusion

If you need basic automation, Koinly is an option. But if you want compliance, accuracy, audit protection, and financial strategy, Tax Partners is the clear winner.
