Content-Creator Income & Tax Tracker

IN ONE PARAGRAPHThe Creator Income & Tax Tracker is a spreadsheet that shows content creators what they actually keep: net income after platform fees, the amount to set aside for tax, and RPM across platforms. The Creator Income & Tax Tracker costs $7 once and works in Excel, Google Sheets and LibreOffice.

Five income streams, three platforms taking a cut, and no idea what you actually made — or owe. This fixes that. The Content-Creator Income & Tax Tracker pulls every payout into one place, shows what you keep after platform fees, sorts your expenses for tax time, and tells you what to set aside — so tax season isn't a shock.

What it does

  • Log each payout with a platform dropdown (YouTube, TikTok, Instagram, sponsorships, affiliate, Patreon, Twitch, Substack…) — net after fees calculates itself
  • Log expenses by tax category so they're sorted before you ever open your tax software
  • Dashboard: total gross, platform fees, net income, expenses, net profit — and your tax set-aside at your chosen rate
  • Breakdowns by platform (which stream actually pays) and by expense category
  • RPM calculator built in — revenue ÷ views × 1,000

Why a spreadsheet, not another app

No subscription, no linking your bank, no giving a startup your earnings data. Yellow cells are yours; every total is a live, machine-verified formula. A worked example (YouTube + sponsorship + Patreon + affiliate) shows exactly how to fill it.

What you get

  • 1 × .xlsx workbook — Dashboard + Income + Expenses + Settings + Start Here
  • Works in Excel 2010+, Google Sheets, and LibreOffice — no macros, no add-ins
  • Yours forever, free updates

Verification

Every metric uses the standard industry definition and the formulas are machine-tested for arithmetic correctness before release. The spreadsheet ships with a worked example and a plain-English “Start Here” sheet.
