Recap has a comprehensive integration with [coinpass](https://coinpass.com) that makes it easy to manage your **crypto tax calculations**.

You can also share your Recap account with your accountant or tax adviser directly. ## Why coinpass tax can be difficult to calculate manually coinpass is built for active traders and businesses, and that is exactly what makes its tax position hard to pin down by hand. The job is rarely a couple of trades: it is often high volume, large one-off deals, and a mix of pairs. A few things tend to trip people up: - **Large OTC and block trades.** A single over-the-counter deal can be a very big disposal, so one trade can move your whole tax position in a way that is easy to under-record or misdate. - **High-frequency trading activity.** Professional and frequent traders build up hundreds of buys and sells, and every disposal is measured against a cost-basis pool built from the entire history. - **More than one kind of pair.** Fiat, crypto and stablecoin pairs all behave differently for tax, and a crypto-for-crypto or crypto-for-stablecoin trade is a disposal even though no ordinary money changes hands. - **A long, detailed history.** The further back and the more active the account, the harder an accurate cost basis is to reconstruct from exports and statements by hand. ## How to import your coinpass data into Recap Connect your coinpass account to Recap by API and we import your full history automatically, including trades, over-the-counter deals, deposits and withdrawals, however far back your account goes. Recap classifies and values every entry with our fair-market valuation engine and applies the tax rules for your jurisdiction, so even a high-volume or OTC-heavy account resolves into a clear set of gains and losses.

Here is how the main coinpass activities are generally treated: This table shows Recap's default classification for common coinpass transactions. It is not an exhaustive schedule or a ruling. Treatment depends on your circumstances and jurisdiction, and you can recategorise any transaction where yours differ. Confirm your position with a qualified tax adviser. Selling crypto for fiat and swapping one crypto asset for another, including trades into stablecoins, are disposals for capital gains purposes, each measured against your cost-basis pool. Buying crypto with fiat is not itself a disposal but sets the cost your later disposals are measured against, and transfers between your own accounts are not disposals. Refer to our [tax guides](https://recap.io/guides/crypto-tax-uk-a-comprehensive-guide) for a more detailed look at crypto tax rules. ## What's in your coinpass tax report Recap turns your full coinpass history into a single tax report: capital gains and losses worked out under the rules for your jurisdiction, large OTC deals and high-volume trading reconciled correctly, stablecoin and crypto-to-crypto trades treated as the disposals they are, and a clear year-by-year summary you can file yourself or hand straight to your accountant. ## Common coinpass tax challenges and how Recap solves them coinpass accounts produce a few recurring tax problems, especially active and business ones. Here is how Recap handles each one: - **Large OTC deals.** A single block trade can be a substantial disposal. Recap captures it at the right value and date so the gain or loss is calculated correctly. - **High-frequency trading activity.** Hundreds of trades are slow to reconstruct by hand. Recap imports the whole history and calculates the gain or loss on every disposal automatically. - **Stablecoin and crypto-to-crypto trades.** These feel like moving funds but are disposals. Recap treats each one correctly rather than mistaking it for a simple transfer. - **A long, detailed history.** Older, active accounts can span thousands of entries. Recap combines them into a single cost-basis position so nothing is missed. ## Why coinpass users choose Recap coinpass users often choose Recap because an active or business account can carry high volume and large OTC deals across several kinds of pair, which is painful to reconcile by hand. Rather than rebuilding all of that manually, you can connect by API and see your gains and losses reconciled in one report, ready to file or share with your accountant. Whether coinpass shares account data with HMRC is a separate question, and we answer it in [does coinpass report to HMRC](https://recap.io/blog/does-coinpass-report-to-hmrc). ## FAQs ### Is coinpass taxable?
