Sync CoinCorner CSV Recap has a comprehensive integration with CoinCorner that makes it easy to manage your crypto tax calculations. Upload your CoinCorner statement to Recap to import your full history and automate your taxes. From 2026, tax authorities are widening the automatic reporting of crypto under frameworks such as the OECD's Cryptoasset Reporting Framework (CARF), so keeping an accurate record matters more than ever.

Why CoinCorner tax can be difficult to calculate manually
CoinCorner is a Bitcoin-focused exchange, including Lightning payments and recurring buys, and that Bitcoin-centred activity still builds a tax position that is easy to underestimate. A few things tend to trip people up:
- Every sale is a disposal. Selling Bitcoin, or spending it on a purchase, is a disposal that crystallises a gain or loss, even when it feels like an everyday payment.
- Recurring buys add up. Regular automatic purchases build a long list of separate acquisitions, each with its own cost that feeds into your cost-basis pool.
- Lightning and small payments. Fast, small Bitcoin payments are easy to overlook, but each spend can still be a disposal that needs valuing.
- A long history. Activity can stretch back years, which makes an accurate cost basis hard to rebuild from exports by hand.
How to import your CoinCorner data into Recap
CoinCorner imports into Recap by file upload. Export your transaction statement from CoinCorner and upload it to Recap, and we bring in your full history automatically, including buys, sells, recurring purchases and payments. Recap classifies and values each entry with our fair-market valuation engine and applies the tax rules for your jurisdiction, so your Bitcoin activity resolves into a clear set of gains and losses.
How are CoinCorner transactions taxed?
Tax treatment depends on the transaction type and where you are tax resident. Here is how the main CoinCorner activities are generally treated:
| Transaction type | CGT | Income | Tracked in Recap |
|---|---|---|---|
| Deposits | |||
| Withdrawals | |||
| Buying crypto with fiat | |||
| Crypto to crypto | |||
| Selling crypto for fiat | |||
| Transferring between your own accounts |
Selling Bitcoin for fiat and swapping one crypto asset for another are disposals for capital gains purposes, each measured against your cost-basis pool. Buying with fiat is not itself a disposal but sets the cost your later disposals are measured against, and transfers between your own accounts and wallets are not disposals.
Refer to our tax guides for a more detailed look at crypto tax rules.
What's in your CoinCorner tax report
Recap turns your full CoinCorner history into a single tax report: capital gains and losses worked out under the rules for your jurisdiction, recurring buys pooled correctly, small and Lightning payments treated as the disposals they are, and a clear year-by-year summary you can file yourself or hand straight to your accountant.
Common CoinCorner tax challenges and how Recap solves them
CoinCorner accounts produce a few recurring tax problems. Here is how Recap handles each one:
- Recurring buys. Regular purchases build many separate acquisitions. Recap imports them all and pools them into a single cost-basis position.
- Small and Lightning payments. Fast, small spends are easy to miss but can be disposals. Recap values each one so nothing is left out.
- Spending Bitcoin. Paying with Bitcoin is a disposal, not just a payment. Recap calculates the gain or loss on each spend automatically.
- A long history. Years of activity are slow to reconstruct. Recap combines the whole record so every disposal is right.
Why CoinCorner users choose Recap
CoinCorner users often choose Recap because Bitcoin activity, from recurring buys to small Lightning payments, quietly builds up more disposals than it looks. Rather than reconstructing them by hand, you can upload your statement and see your gains and losses reconciled in one report, ready to file or share with your accountant.
