Illustrative verdict

£4,120 away

from the £20,000 gross-income threshold, based on the figures entered.

What to expect

A straight answer, not a scare tactic.

No login required for the free check
Your verdict uses gross takings, not profit
Clear dates and thresholds without tax jargon

One check. One verdict.

Find the risk hidden in your turnover.

Profit tells you whether the side hustle feels worthwhile. Gross income can determine whether digital record keeping and quarterly updates apply.

The key distinction

£24,000 sold is £24,000 gross

Even if costs leave only £3,000 in profit, the gross figure entered remains £24,000.

01

Add every income stream

Enter gross takings from selling platforms, freelance work, deliveries and property. GrossCheck brings them together because qualifying income can be combined across sources.

02

See the number that matters

Get a plain-English verdict showing how far you are from the relevant threshold—or whether your entered gross income has already passed it.

03

Know the deadline

See which tax year determines your position and how much time remains, so you can prepare rather than discover the obligation too late.

Built for mixed-income side hustles

Vinted, Etsy, deliveries, freelance work and rent—seen together.

Separate apps can make the totals feel separate. GrossCheck helps you assemble one clearer picture before a threshold catches you by surprise.
