      What is the starting price? In OZB you should post in the title how much we are paying after saving.

      • Marketingtaxfox @ TaxFox on 02/07/2023 - 17:13
        +1

        Hey @MKBHD that's a good suggestion.

        The starting price is free/$0. Only those who have higher tax deduction requirements and want to store more receipts. After saving you are paying $77.99 or the genuis plan which is normally $154.99

        Cheers,

    eTax does the job unless you have investments etc

    Calculate how much extra refund you can get

    Lol not hard. eTax also has all the guides needed

    Link your bank accounts to find expenses

    Lol. Not gonna happen

    • Log your WFH days
    • Log all your WFH expenses

    Also can be done in eTax and Guide available on ATO website

    • Marketingtaxfox @ TaxFox on 02/07/2023 - 17:10

      Hey @easternculture thanks for your comments.

      It seems like you are quite familiar with the etax app so it would be great to hear your feedback once you've tried the TaxFox App.

      Cheers,

        If you give me a free trial sure.
        Not paying for it when your app is probabaly a reversed engineered eTax

        • Marketingtaxfox @ TaxFox on 02/07/2023 - 17:39
          +1

          Yes the app is free. it's not even a time bound trial. The genius plan is only for those who are claiming more deductions.

          You're assumption is incorrect - We have looked at all the tax apps in Australia and none of them are worth reverse engineering :)

          We do appreciate people who are good at comparing features so are very open to you providing a side by side comparison

          Cheers,
          The TaxFox Team

          • easternculture on 02/07/2023 - 17:46

            @taxfox: What you describe in OP is exactly what eTax does. Ive been using eTax forever and it does the job and more, and user freindly.

            They even have an app to store expenses/reciepts too im told although i have never tried it

            • Marketingtaxfox @ TaxFox on 02/07/2023 - 17:51

              @easternculture: What you're saying is like saying "Mcdonald's and hungry Jacks burgers are exactly the same because they both have cheese in them"

              Many burgers have cheese but that doesn't make them the same.

              Have you tried all the other features?

              Perhaps they may not be useful for you in which case feel free to continue using etax :)

              Cheers,
              The TaxFox Team

              • easternculture on 02/07/2023 - 18:01

                @taxfox: So your app is superior to ATO eTax?

                How about your cyber security. Care to explain how you protect our data.

                What measure you have to prevent cyber attacks?

                • Marketingtaxfox @ TaxFox on 02/07/2023 - 18:08

                  @easternculture: Hi @easternculture I think you may be confusing things. ATO etax doesn't exist.

                  We have bank level security and I'd be very happy to give you all the technical around it if you let me know what point of reference and level of understanding you have on digital cybersecurity relating and Australian financial data security requirements.

                  The fact that we are able to integrate with 64 Australian banks should give you an indication of the level of scrutiny that the app had to pass.

                  One thing we can say is that we have never lost any data for our users, period. This was one of the biggest problems that needed to be solved even with the ATO app which showed users putting reviews in saying that the ATO app had lost their data.

        Yeah whatever its called. Im just used to the old name

  • nsingh21 on 02/07/2023 - 17:10

    Its better to use proper registered tax agent, the costs of which can also be tax deductible.

    • Marketingtaxfox @ TaxFox on 02/07/2023 - 17:59

      Hey @nsingh21,

      Cost of tax agent can be deducted and the cost of using tax fox is also 100% tax deductible :). Some of our customer use both.

    • Marketingtaxfox @ TaxFox on 02/07/2023 - 17:17

      Hey Mel Dragons,

      That makes total sense. Often a human touch can't be replaced! :)

      Keep in mind that for future you can organise your tax stuff with the app and even if you are using a tax agent or accountant, you may be able to reduce the fee they charge if it takes them less hours and effort to lodge your tax return.

      :)

      Cheers,
      The TaxFox Team

      • easternculture on 02/07/2023 - 17:22

        Haha lol

        Tax agents are fixed price
        They dont give a discount. Its take it or leave it service

        • Marketingtaxfox @ TaxFox on 02/07/2023 - 17:30

          Hey @easternculture,

          Tax agents are not all fixed price. They may offer a fixed price for 'basic' returns but for people who are claiming more deductions or have more complex tax returns they usually have a different pricing system.

          And tax agents do in fact give discounts - you can see agents and accountants offering tax time specials nearly everywhere you go.

          Perhaps your tax returns have always been a fixed price and that may suit you better!

          Thanks!
          The TaxFox Team

          • easternculture on 02/07/2023 - 17:31

            @taxfox: They wont give you a discount just because everything is organised.

            If you know such a tax agent, send me his deets and ill use him

            Fixed price as in set price for each of their classifications they use

              @easternculture: It sounds like you're pretty adamant on the way you do your taxes and you're happy with your accountant and the fees they charge you to ensure you're getting the maximum amount of tax refund.

              Sounds like this app might not be the best fit for you even if you decided to download and check it out.

              And that's totally fine! With over 14M tax payers, different people have different needs.

              Thanks for your comments :)

                Ive used etax since it was released.
                Get max deductions and just click the guide links if im not sure about anything.

                You are just trying to sell a product that already exists and has been used by millions of tax payers every year

                • Marketingtaxfox @ TaxFox on 02/07/2023 - 17:53

                  @easternculture: Great stuff!

                  Taxi's have been used by millions of people but it seems people found that using services like uber was better for what they wanted.

                  Many people still use taxis.

                  Please feel free to keep using old systems if you are happy with them!

    Similar to another person on Google Play I couldn't proceed with registration past the suburb code.

    • Marketingtaxfox @ TaxFox on 02/07/2023 - 17:26

      Hey @jrchurvnjef

      We're very sorry about this. if you let us know your device and model whether here or at [email protected] we can help you.

      You could try the following as a quick fix
      - Check keyboard settings to see if there are any custom keyboard settings applied. if you you can try using the google keyboard temporarily and it could fix the problem
      - another hack is to activate the google voice voice type temporarily.

      We know this isn't the best solution but hopefully it'll get you past this page and we haven't had any other bug reports after this.

      We're in the process of changing all the onboarding screens so a permanent fix will be in place within the next couple of weeks.

      Thanks for letting us know.

          I'll message here when the new version is up. Please feel free to email us as well.

      Hey @glorydaybulls,

      Thanks also for picking this up. Yes we do testing across all devices and this has been an 'interesting' bug to fix based on certain customisations that users have on certain android devices.

      The comment just above may provide a quick fix.

      We're sorry about this and will do our best to give you 1:1 support if you could please let us know your device name and model at [email protected]

    Not a deal - if anything, trying to get an AI to "find deductions for you" is likely to get you into more trouble than not.

    If you're happy to lodge without documentation, why not just pull a number out of your ass?

    This product has literally been 98% off in the past - basically, any RRP you put on it can be disregarded as a lie.
    https://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/560064

    • Marketingtaxfox @ TaxFox on 02/07/2023 - 17:45

      Hey @frowny,

      you're right that documentation is required to claim tax deductions. Bank transactions can still act as evidence of the expense occurring. There are many rules around deductions which makes it hard for the average Australian to figure out all the jargon. The app aims to help make life a bit easier.

      Even if you are good at pulling things out of your a$$ we would suggest to other readers that it's best not to make things up, especially related to taxes!

      The 98% discount was a 1 time introductory which ill most likely never be offered again. Over the years we have added many features and now have thousands of users.

      I'm sorry if you have been lied to about other products - this offer is genuine :)

    Last time you posted RRP was $84. Seems like an inflated sale.

      Hey @internet-stranger,

      Good pick up!

      That was for older versions of the app with older plans. in fact, at that time there were 4 different plans available.

      As we improved the app and added more features that our customers found valuable, we simplified our plans and updated the pricing.

      Our earliest version of the app at it's most basic only had a free plan and a $48 plan - it was nowhere as advanced as the app is now.

        Good attempt at justifying the inflated RRP.

        I dont see netflix increasing subscriptions everytime they improve the app and make it more user freindly.

        • Marketingtaxfox @ TaxFox on 02/07/2023 - 18:12

          Hey @easternculture,

          You may wish to do some quick research before making throw away comments. A quick Google search shows that Netflix increased it's prices in Australia in 2021.

          https://7news.com.au/entertainment/netflix-australia/netflix…

          Tech products would often adjust their prices, whether it's increasing or decreasing.

          Cheers,
          The TaxFox Team

          • easternculture on 02/07/2023 - 19:12

            @taxfox: The price increase was not related to app improvement/features as you are justifying increasing subscription price 3 fold.

            App improvments /security is your responsibility as a developer. If you want to increase prices everytime you add a feature, ozbargain is not for you cause we are cheap arses here and we love free stuff.

            • Marketingtaxfox @ TaxFox on 03/07/2023 - 09:53

              @easternculture: Hey @easternculture

              90% of the features in the app are free and for people who have a small number of deductions it's completely free.

              So it seems it's perfect for Ozbargain!

              Might not be good for someone who likes to make remarks without ever actually using the product. That's all good mate, everyone is entitled to use what they are comfortable with!
