Scaleup

Every year, 200 million Europeans go through tax preparation hell. It's a needlessly complicated process that can scare the living daylights out of you (actual words from our customers). Let’s be honest . Doing taxes is a massive pain.

While many other industries – from banking to transportation – have seen huge disruptions over the years, tax preparation has not. We're here to fix that.

TaxScouts was founded in 2017 by early employees and alumni of Europe’s leading startups (TransferWise, Skype, MarketInvoice), and we are always on a lookout for like-minded people to join us. In 2020, we secured Series A funding and we now operate in both the UK and Spain.  

We're partnered with over 20 businesses from Monzo Business to Nutmeg to Airbnb who are all on a similar mission to ours of making the world of traditional finance simpler and more fair.
