Reimburse vs MileIQ
MileIQ does one thing well: it detects your drives automatically, free for 40 a month. Reimburse covers every expense, not just miles, free and without limits, but you log trips yourself.
We make Reimburse, so read this knowing that. Everything said about MileIQ comes from its own site, linked below.
| Reimburse | MileIQ | |
|---|---|---|
| Price | Free, with no limit on receipts. No card to sign up. | Free for 40 drives a month. Unlimited is $11.66 a month billed yearly, or $13.99 month to month. |
| What it tracks | Every business expense: receipts, bills, the home office and mileage. | Mileage only. |
| Mileage | Trips logged by hand, with saved places, each at the IRS rate of the day it was driven. No automatic drive detection. | Detects drives automatically and sorts many of them by your work hours and places; you swipe the rest. Rates update when the IRS changes them. |
| Tax value | Every expense shows “$X back” at your own combined rate: self-employment tax, your federal bracket and your state. | The dollar value of your mileage deduction. |
| Platforms | In the browser on iPhone, Android and computers; installs to the home screen. Not in the app stores. | iPhone, Android and a web dashboard. |
