ShiftClaim records your drives — rideshare, delivery or courier — classifies business vs personal automatically, and produces the ATO 12-week logbook, GST & BAS figures and EV charging records your accountant asks for. Everything is stored on your device; nothing is uploaded to us.
Requires an Australian business (ABN) and GST registration to claim GST credits. Estimates are record-keeping tools, not tax advice.
Start a manual shift with one tap — full GPS accuracy, never auto-stops — or opt in to battery-light auto-detection via beacon, motion or saved places.
Trips between pickups are business. Home commutes stay private. A receipt-printed GST is apportioned correctly by your logbook — the engine enforces the ATO rules so you don't have to remember them.
A running quarterly BAS position — G1, 1A, 1B and net GST — with a downloadable XLSX report, vehicle-purchase credits capped correctly at the car limit, and odometer continuity at every shift boundary.
A live gauge tracks your continuous logbook period week by week, computes your business-use percentage to four decimal places, and stays valid for five years once the 12 weeks are complete.
Public charging claims GST ÷ 11 from the invoice; home charging follows the ATO's Practical Compliance Guideline 2024/2 cents-per-km rate (4.2¢), GST-excluded — with home-vs-public analytics per network.
Every shift ends with an odometer prompt; the next shift starts where the last ended. Distances prefer the odometer reading — authoritative for audit — and roll the vehicle's meter forward automatically.
No accounts, no analytics, no advertising, no third-party SDKs. Records live in your device's storage and optionally your own iCloud. Receipts are read on-device by Apple's Vision framework.
What ShiftClaim does that general mileage trackers and spreadsheets don't — the four things that decide whether your BAS and logbook survive an ATO review.
| Feature | ShiftClaim | Typical international mileage tracker |
Manual log + spreadsheet |
|---|---|---|---|
| Live GST & BAS figures G1, 1A, 1B and net GST computed from ATO rules as you drive |
Yes Div 144 rules, logbook-apportioned GST, car-limit caps — enforced by the engine | No Built for the IRS, not the ATO | No You re-derive it by hand every quarter |
| ATO 12-week logbook engine Week-by-week gauge and business-use % valid for 5 years |
Yes 84-day day-count arithmetic; the gauge matches the calculator exactly | No Generic trip logs, no ATO validity tracking | No Manual counting; the classic under-count error lives here |
| EV charging tax engine Public ÷11 GST, home charging per PCG 2024/2 |
Yes Home-vs-public capture per network, auto-apportioned at the logbook rate | No No EV charging category anywhere | No The guideline is 40 pages of fine print |
| Private by architecture On-device storage, no accounts, no analytics, no servers |
Yes Records live in your device and your iCloud; receipts read on-device | No Cloud accounts and analytics SDKs are the norm | No Photos and spreadsheets scattered across your phone |
