The five areas head to head
AI AnalysisFees & Costs
Importing is free: up to 10,000 transactions can be loaded, wallets and exchanges connected without limit, and capital gains previewed. Payment is only due when downloading the finished tax report, charged per tax year: €49 for 100 transactions, €99 for 1,000 and €199 for 3,000. For larger volumes there is the Pro plan, to which further transactions can be added in the app in packs of 1,000; the pricing page does not show a price for it. There is no subscription: anyone needing a report once a year pays for that year only, and as long as no report has been generated, Koinly refunds the purchase within 7 days. As of 1 November 2026, prices as shown on Koinly's pricing page when accessed from Germany.

Usability & User Experience
Setup is regarded as the most approachable entry point among tax tools: exchanges connect by API or CSV and categorisation runs largely automatically. Users with heavy DeFi activity still need to reconcile manually. As of August 2026.

Features & Offering
More than 900 exchanges, wallets and blockchains are connected, plus over 7,200 DeFi protocols. Country-specific tax reports are available for the US, UK, Canada, Australia, Germany and around 20 further jurisdictions, which matters because the output has to match the local filing format. Portfolio tracking and an Android app round this out; for iOS there is so far a TestFlight beta. As of 1 November 2026.

Verdict
In our overall rating Koinly leads with 4.8 against 3.7 for Ledgible.
For most investors Koinly is therefore the better choice.
Koinly is especially valued for its beginner-friendly interface and broad coverage of more than 900 exchanges, wallets and blockchains. The setup is considered straightforward, which is particularly helpful for users who are dealing with the tax reporting of cryptocurrencies for the first time. With support for FIFO, LIFO, HIFO, and ACB as tax methods, Koinly covers the calculation methods commonly used in Germany. DeFi, staking, and mining transactions are also automatically recognized and categorized.
The free portfolio tracking makes it easy to get started without having to pay right away: up to 10,000 transactions can be imported and capital gains previewed. The Android app complements the web version, while for the iPhone there is so far only a TestFlight beta. Payment is due only for the tax report, per tax year €49 for up to 100 transactions, €99 for 1,000 and €199 for 3,000; that is moderate in market comparison, although the costs at high transaction volumes are seen as room for improvement. Koinly offers country-specific tax reports for more than 20 countries, underlining its international usability.
For Germany, Koinly produces a dedicated tax report that is filed with the tax return via ELSTER, although parts of the German pricing page are only in English. Audit support is also currently missing, which may be relevant for users with more complex tax requirements. Overall, Koinly is seen as a solid choice for beginners and users with medium transaction volumes who are looking for an intuitive tool with broad exchange coverage and mobile access.
Ledgible is considered a professional crypto tax and accounting platform that is primarily aimed at tax advisors, CPAs, and institutional users. The SOC 1 and SOC 2 Type 2 certification underscores its focus on enterprise security standards and is viewed positively in professional circles as a mark of quality. Support for FIFO, LIFO, and HIFO as tax methods covers the common calculation approaches.
A standout feature is its integration with accounting software such as NetSuite, Xero, and QuickBooks, which sets Ledgible apart from pure tax tools. The direct network of crypto CPAs provides professional audit support, and the export formats CSV, PDF, QBO, Xero, and NetSuite enable seamless integration into existing accounting workflows. Free portfolio tracking offers an initial look at the platform. Since December 2025, Ledgible has also offered businesses a way to prepare transaction data for CARF and DAC8 reporting.
With more than 300 listed integrations, including over 270 exchanges, Ledgible trails competitors with 500+ or even 2,900+ integrations, which is room for improvement for users with many different exchanges and wallets. Its focus on the US market and IRS compliance means that German tax coverage is considered room for improvement. Most features can be used free of charge; what you pay for are the tax reports per tax year, from $49 for up to 200 transactions, $50 more for up to 1,000 transactions and $100 for each further 2,500. The count covers the entire transaction history up to the tax year in question. For tax professionals, Ledgible Crypto Tax Pro is free, with billing per client. Ledgible is therefore seen as especially suitable for professional tax advisors and institutional users who need accounting integration and certified security standards.
