Gekko: Free Online Accounting for Freelancers from the Netherlands

With income tracking, you can keep all your earnings organized in one place. Whether you receive payment via bank transfer, iDEAL, or cash, you can easily log each income with date, amount, and description. This gives you a complete overview of your revenue so you always know exactly how much you've earned per month, quarter, or year.

Never lose receipts again or keep a shoebox full of papers. With the scan function, you simply photograph your receipt with your phone and Gekko stores it digitally. The app automatically recognizes important data like the amount and date. Perfect for business expenses, gas receipts, or office supplies you want to deduct from your taxes.

Create professional invoices in just a few clicks. You can add your own logo, save client details for reuse, and send the invoice directly via email. Gekko also tracks which invoices are paid and which are still outstanding, so you never miss a payment. Ideal for freelancers who want to look professional without spending hours on administration.

Do you regularly drive to clients or for business appointments? With mileage tracking, you can easily log your trips with starting point, destination, and the number of kilometers. The app automatically calculates the business kilometers you can deduct on your tax return. Some versions even offer GPS tracking where your trips are automatically recorded.

Perfect for freelancers who work on an hourly basis. You can track your worked hours per project or client, including notes about what you did. At the end of the month, you generate an overview or invoice with one click based on your registered hours. This way you know exactly how much time you spend on each project and can bill fairly.

VAT returns are a headache for many entrepreneurs, but Gekko makes it simple. Based on your registered income and expenses, the app automatically calculates your VAT amounts. You get a clear overview of VAT to pay or receive, which you can use directly for your tax filing. No more hassle with complicated calculations.
