Recap
UK-focused crypto tax software for portfolio tracking, HMRC calculations, downloadable reports, and accountant collaboration.
About Recap
Recap is crypto tax software built for UK investors, accountants, and companies that need HMRC-compliant calculations and reports. It imports trading history from Binance, Coinbase, and more than 350 exchanges and wallets, brings accounts into one portfolio view, and calculates capital gains and income taxes using UK rules such as share pooling and bed-and-breakfast matching. Users can preview capital gains without paying, then upgrade when they need downloadable reports for a tax return or accountant handoff. The product also tracks historical transactions and portfolio value in pounds. Its privacy architecture uses client-side AES-256 encryption, with decryption keys retained by the user; this makes the secret phrase essential for continued access. Basic supports up to 5,000 transactions, Pro removes the transaction limit and adds CSV exports, while Company adds reports and matching controls for business crypto treasuries. Annual billing and a UK-specific tax workflow make the strongest fit clear: Recap is aimed at people filing under HMRC rules rather than users seeking broad multi-country tax coverage.
Best for
Best use cases
At tax-return time, import trading history and produce downloadable figures for SA108 and accountant review.
After activity across several exchanges, consolidate transactions and view total portfolio value in pounds.
For a company year end, prepare balance sheet and chargeable gains reports with 10-day matching rules.
Compare before choosing
Choose Recap for a UK-specific workflow; a multi-country tax platform may fit better when filings span other jurisdictions.
Basic suits portfolios below 5,000 transactions, while Pro removes the limit and adds CSV export capabilities.
Company costs more than Pro but adds treasury reports and accounting-year controls for business use.

Pros
- The UK-specific calculation workflow supports HMRC rules and produces figures intended for SA108 tax filing.
- Connections to more than 350 exchanges and wallets reduce manual consolidation for active portfolios.
- Client-side AES-256 encryption keeps decryption keys with the user instead of making financial records readable to Recap.
Cons
- Annual subscriptions may be less flexible for users who only want a short monthly engagement.
- Basic is capped at 5,000 transactions, so high-volume traders need the £219-per-year Pro plan.
- The UK-specific design is a poor fit for taxpayers who need calculations and filing support across other countries.
