How Does Lodg Work?

💸 1. Get Paid Through Lodg

You can receive income into your Lodg account in one of two ways:

• Create & send invoices: Use Lodg to generate and send invoices to clients. We’ll notify you when they pay.

• Direct transfer: Share your Lodg account number with your employer or client so they can pay you directly.

Once payment hits your Lodg account, the platform goes to work.

📊 2. We Calculate Exactly What Tax You Owe

As soon as you get paid, Lodg checks:

• How much you’ve earned so far this financial year

• What valid business expenses you’ve claimed

Then we calculate the exact amount of tax you owe for that income.

🏦 3. We Pay the IRD and You, Instantly

Lodg automatically:

• Deducts and pays the correct tax amount straight to the IRD

• Sends the rest of your income to your nominated bank account — usually same day

No guesswork. No tax bills piling up later. No IRD surprises.

📥 4. Claim Expenses Easily

To lower your tax bill, you can claim business-related expenses:

• Upload or snap a photo of your receipt

• Or, connect your bank account, and Lodg’s AI will auto-detect claimable expenses for you

You’ll see approved, declined, and pending expenses right in your dashboard.

🧾 5. Everything in One Simple Dashboard

Your Lodg dashboard shows:

• How much income you’ve received

• What invoices are paid, overdue, or sent

• What expenses you’ve claimed

• Your running total of tax already handled ✅

You can also access all this from the Lodg mobile app.

🧠 In a Nutshell…

Lodg = get paid ➝ tax sorted ➝ peace of mind

No spreadsheets, no IRD guesswork, no accountant required.
