Many people who drive for work (think: rideshare driving, delivery driving, or driving to sales meetings) don’t realize that they can deduct their mileage from their taxes to get a bigger refund. Even those who are aware find the process to be tedious and time-consuming — and they often fail to report them accurately, which can lead to missed deductions or IRS penalties.
Everlance makes it easy for self-employed contractors to track their mileage and expenses so that they can get accurately reimbursed and claim the most deductions possible. And now, by partnering with Column Tax, Everlance has streamlined the user journey from tracking expenses to filing taxes.
“This partnership felt like a natural fit,” said Ashkan Motamedi, Business Lead at Everlance. “Our users consistently told us that tax filing was a major pain point. They wanted a seamless, end-to-end solution they could trust. By integrating Column Tax’s technology, we’re delivering on that need.”
Everlance’s rapidly growing user base of over three million people often share similar tax challenges. For example, it’s difficult to manually keep track of deductions each day while also juggling job demands. Doing it yourself also opens the door to errors, which can mean fewer deductions and even potential fines from the IRS. Everlance recognized that this expanding segment of the U.S. economy needs easy-to-use tools that give them more control over their finances.
With Everlance, they can:
Get a bigger tax refund and stay compliant. Everlance automatically tracks mileage and expenses in real time, helping users maximize deductions and remain compliant.
Cut out administrative work and save time. By automating processes from mileage detection to expense categorization, Everlance reduces administrative work and frees up time for users to focus on their businesses.
Gain more visibility into their finances. Everlance provides detailed reports and insights into income, expenses, and profitability — empowering users to make smarter financial decisions.
Enjoy an intuitive user experience. The seamless, user-friendly Everlance app experience is tailored to modern professionals who value simplicity and convenience.
With all these features and benefits, Everlance was able to track over $1 billion of potential tax savings in 2024 alone. But until now, Everlance users had to go off-platform to actually file their taxes after they tracked expenses and identified deductions on Everlance.
“Our users frequently told us they felt overwhelmed and intimidated by the tax-filing process,” Motamedi said. “By bringing Column Tax into the mix, we’re now helping them take the final step of actually filing their taxes.”
With the launch of this new feature, users on Everlance’s Professional plan can now file their taxes directly within the app, simplifying the tax preparation process and ensuring that every deduction Everlance helped them identify is claimed in their tax filing. Professional users also have access to premium Everlance features like unlimited automatic mileage tracking, automatic expense tracking, an AI-driven deduction finder, and audit defense up to $1 million.
“We’re committed to serving mobile workers who are serious about building a career on their own terms,” Motamedi said. “Providing in-app tax filing with Column Tax is allowing us to offer premium financial tools across the entire lifecycle of each Everlance user.”
As the mobile workforce continues to grow, Everlance is showing why it remains the No. 1-rated app for mileage and expense tracking.
Instead of having to file their taxes themselves, Everlance users can do it directly within an app they already use and trust.
With Everlance and Column Tax, they can:
File taxes up to 6x faster. The average American spends three hours filing taxes each year. With Column Tax, the average filing time is less than 30 minutes, thanks to pre-filled data and connected workflows.
Save money. Americans spend an average of $180 filing their taxes each year, and that goes up to $540 for self-employed people. Everlance is offering in-app tax filing as an included service for Professional users, and more best-in-class financial apps are taking similar approaches to add more value for customers while creating an end-to-end experience.
