On your Tax Reserve account<\/b> you’ll see the familiar bar showing how much you should set aside for taxes. Until now you had to do this manually \u2013 from now on, it can happen automatically if you want it to.<\/p>\n

\n

\n

What’s new?<\/h2>\n

\n

With the new “Automatic set aside”<\/b> feature, you can have your tax reserves transferred automatically from your main account to your Tax Reserve account. No calculating, no remembering \u2013 it just runs in the background.<\/p>\n

\n

How to set it up<\/h2>\n

\n

Go to your Tax Reserve account and tap the selection button<\/b>. From there you can:<\/p>\n

\n

    \n
  • \n

    set the percentage<\/b>: 90%, 100% or 110%<\/b> of the calculated amount<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

    \n

    As soon as the automation is active, you’ll see it at a glance<\/b> \u2013 the status is shown right in the account, so you never have to dig around to check.<\/p>\n

    \n

    How is the amount calculated?<\/h2>\n

    \n

    The calculation is based on your cash available<\/b>. That way you always stay in control of what gets moved.<\/p>\n

    \n

    \"Screen<\/div>\n

    \n

    Change it anytime<\/h2>\n

    You’re not locked in. Just tap “Manage it”<\/b> again and you can:<\/p>\n

    \n

      \n
    • \n

      adjust the percentage (e.g. switch from 100% to 90%)<\/p>\n<\/li>\n

    • \n

      turn the automation off completely<\/p>\n<\/li>\n

    • \n

      enable or disable it for individual taxes <\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

      Whether you’re at your laptop or on the go with your phone: setup and management work the same way in the web version and the mobile app<\/b>.<\/p>\n

      \n

      If your balance isn’t enough<\/h2>\n

      If there isn’t enough money in your main account to set the amount aside automatically, we won’t leave you hanging:<\/p>\n

        \n
      • \n

        You’ll get an email with a QR code<\/b> so you can top up your account quickly<\/p>\n<\/li>\n

      • \n

        You’ll also see a message directly in the app<\/b><\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

        \n

        That way you can react right away and your reserve stays on track.<\/p>\n
