Started a side hustle. Now what does IRD want?

Do I have to keep every receipt?

A glovebox full, a drawer full, a few buried in email. Every one that fades is a deduction you hand back to IRD.

My first GST return. Where do I start?

You registered, the invoices went out, and now IRD wants a number you don’t have.

Anyone got a good spreadsheet for this?

Money’s coming in, nothing’s set aside, and the tax bill is a guess. The spreadsheet you started in week one didn’t survive week three.

How much GST do I owe this time?

Wrightly works out the GST on every invoice and expense as you enter it. Come filing time the boxes are already filled in: what you collected, what you paid, and what you owe IRD.

  • Live GST-collected and GST-paid totals
  • Period-ready reports you can file straight from
  • No spreadsheets, no month-end scramble
TaxGST returns

Can I just take a photo of the receipt?

  • Upload photos or PDFs, one at a time or a whole folder
  • Reads the amount, GST and category for you
  • Matched to your transactions, ready for your ok

Can clients just pay by card?

Put together an invoice or quote in a couple of minutes, email it to your client, and let them pay by card on the spot. Set up recurring invoices and automatic reminders so you’re not the one chasing late payers.

  • Invoices, quotes and recurring schedules
  • Online card payments through your own Stripe account
  • Automatic reminders on overdue invoices

Can I run a whole job in here?

Send a quote, and when your client accepts it, it becomes a project. Log hours against it, then invoice the quote items and the hours.

  • Quotes that turn into projects
  • Timesheets for you and your contractors
  • Invoices from quote items and logged hours

Why Wrightly

Built for NZ

GST, provisional tax, ACC and IRD rules built in, not bolted onto overseas software.

Will it match what IRD asks for?

Your GST return and income tax, IR3 for sole traders and IR4 for companies, follow IRD’s own rules and boxes, so there are no nasty surprises when you file.

See more

Your data stays yours

Export any time and delete on request. We never touch or move your money.

No surprise price rises

If we ever raise prices, you get advance notice before it applies to you, and you can cancel before it takes effect.

Questions, answered.

Is the free tier really free?

Yes, and there's no trial clock. The free plan covers your books and every tax feature: receipts, expenses, mileage, live GST tracking and income tax returns ready to file, with unlimited clients and unlimited quotes. You enter and categorise things yourself. Each month you can send 5 invoices, add 20 receipts and add 30 transactions. AI reads 3 of your receipts a month. Wrightly Plus lifts those limits, adds bank feeds and reads up to 100 receipts a month.

What do the paid plans add?

Wrightly Plus lifts the free plan's limits. Connect your bank with read-only access and your transactions come in on their own, with a suggested category. Email or upload your bills and receipts and AI reads them and matches them to the right bank transaction. Plus reads up to 100 receipts a month. You approve it all before it reaches your books, and you can undo a batch. Wrightly Premium adds projects, timesheets, recurring invoices, files on quotes and invoices, and the copilot chat. It reads up to 1,000 receipts a month.

How much do the paid plans cost?

Wrightly Plus is $19 a month plus GST, or $190 a year plus GST, about 17% off the monthly price. The first month of the monthly plan is $9.50 plus GST. Wrightly Premium is $29 a month plus GST, or $290 a year plus GST, about 17% off the monthly price. The first month of the monthly plan is $14.50 plus GST. You can cancel any time.

Which banks can I connect?

You can connect ANZ, ASB, BNZ, Kiwibank, Westpac and more through open banking (Akahu). Bank feeds are part of Wrightly Plus. Access is read only, and you can disconnect any time.

Do you file to IRD for me?

Wrightly keeps your GST returns and your income tax return (IR3 for sole traders, IR4 for companies) filing-ready on every plan, so the numbers are already done when a return is due. You file in myIR, and you copy the finished figures into it.

Do you handle my money?

No. Wrightly never touches your bank account or moves money, and connections are read-only. You keep control of your accounts. Wrightly only reads and organises the data.

Can my accountant use it too?

Yes. Wrightly is multi-member: invite your accountant or business partner into your organisation with their own login and the right role.

Can I connect my own AI or tools?

Yes, on every plan. Connect Claude with the one-click MCP connector, or use org-scoped API tokens for scripts and other clients. Everything the app can do, from receipts and invoices to GST summaries and publishing transactions, is available as tools.

Sort your tax before it sorts you.
