Short-term gains taxed as ordinary income; long-term gains (held over 1 year) taxed at 0/15/20% federal rates.
Capital Gains Tax after a £3,000 annual exempt amount, at 18% or 24% depending on your income band.
Tax-free if held over 1 year. Otherwise taxed at your income tax rate if gains exceed a €1,000 yearly threshold.
Flat 30% tax plus 4% cess on any gain, regardless of holding period. No loss offsetting allowed.
50% CGT discount if held over 12 months, then added to income and taxed at marginal rates plus the Medicare Levy.
The Flicker app tracks your positions and cost basis automatically — free on iOS and Android.
We take your proceeds minus cost basis to find the capital gain, then apply the selected jurisdiction's rules — holding-period treatment, tax-free allowances, and marginal or flat rates — stacked on top of the other annual income you enter.
US, UK, Germany, India, and Australia all have clear, published crypto capital-gains rules that can be reliably encoded as a formula. Many other countries either lack clear guidance or hinge on facts-and-circumstances (like whether trading counts as a business), which a simple calculator can't answer.
The US, Germany, and Australia all tax assets held longer than a year (12 months for Australia) more favorably — Germany even makes long-held crypto tax-free. The UK and India don't distinguish by holding period.
No. This is an educational estimate that doesn't account for state/local taxes, other gains or losses in the same tax year, specific cost-basis elections, or your complete financial situation. Always consult a licensed tax professional before filing.
This calculator shows $0 estimated tax on a loss. It doesn't model offsetting a loss against other gains or income — real tax treatment of losses varies by jurisdiction and is best confirmed with a professional.
