CoinLedger vs CoinTracker
Neither of these is our product, and this page does not pretend to be neutral about the fact that we make one — but the figures below are simply what each vendor publishes, with the page they came from. We think you should be able to compare two tools without wading through either one's marketing.
Side by side
| CoinLedger | CoinTracker | |
|---|---|---|
| What you get without paying | Import unlimited exchanges and wallets, track the portfolio and see a gains preview; downloading the tax reports requires a paid plan for that year. | Portfolio tracking with daily updates; per their help centre the tax calculations themselves sit behind a paid plan — we could not verify this in-product, so treat it as their documentation rather than our observation. |
| Price at ~1,000 transactions | $99 per tax year (Investor, ≤1,000 tx) | Not published in machine-readable form — their pricing page renders client-side and returned no readable price text when checked |
| Above that | From $199 per tax year (Pro) — the card prints '$199+' and additional transactions are bought in-app at a price not published | Not published in machine-readable form (checked 2026-08-23); Full Service is listed from $3,499/yr, with the transaction ceiling stated inconsistently across their own pages |
| Connections | Exchange, wallet and chain imports via API and CSV; the count differs between their pages. | Their own pages state 632, 500+ and 605+ on the same day. API (read-only) and CSV both supported. |
| Country depth | US-focused, with support for several other jurisdictions. | US-centric with international support; per-country statutory forms are not the focus. |
| Documents produced | Form 8949 (itemised and consolidated), Schedule D, Schedule 1, Form 8453, TurboTax/H&R Block/TaxAct/TaxSlayer files, and an 'Audit Trail Report' that traces the arithmetic. | Form 8949, Schedule D, TurboTax and H&R Block hand-off. Their own documentation states no TXF export. |
| Evidence behind each figure | The audit-trail report traces the calculation, which is more than most ship — but it is arithmetic, not legal authority: no cited statute per figure, no published methodology, no versioned ruleset. | Per-transaction cost basis, proceeds and fees are visible on expansion, and tax lots on higher tiers — but no documented price-data source, no published methodology and no versioned ruleset. |
| Getting your data out | Transaction history CSV is exportable free; computed basis comes with the paid reports. | Transaction history exports as CSV; the computed cost-basis export is less clearly documented than Koinly's. |
| Dead platforms | Not a stated specialty. | Not a stated specialty. |
| Support model | Email/chat, Expert Review, and a published Done-For-You engagement at $3,500–$6,000. | Chat/email, tax-pro collaboration on paid plans, Full Service tier from $3,499/yr. |

What neither of them does
Neither publishes a versioned, dated ruleset or a standing methodology document, and neither cites the underlying authority beside each computed figure. For most filers that never matters. It matters the day a tax authority asks where a number came from — which is the day we built our product for.
