You have a job. You also have something on the side.
Your employer handles the salary. The side income is yours to account for — Ledgr keeps it in order, in rands, with the working shown.

What you’ll actually get
Side income recorded properly
Whatever the hustle pays — jobs, sales, bookings, gigs — it goes in as income with a date and a source.
Costs captured in seconds
Snap the slip on your way out of the shop. The photo stays attached to the expense.
Say the expense out loud (mobile app)
No slip and no free hands? Say "taxi to Gaborone sixty pula yesterday" into the app — it fills in the amount, the type and the date for you to check and save. Nothing is saved until you tap save.
Invoices for the clients who need one
Send a real invoice, and let reminders chase it while you are at your day job.
Books that tie out
Every invoice, payment and expense lands in a double-entry journal, so the totals you show a bank, an accountant or SARS agree with each other.
A tax picture with the working shown
See the side income adding up through the year, and every line behind the total SARS will care about.
One place for the paperwork
Payslips, invoices, expenses and your card wallet in one app, so nothing lives in a WhatsApp thread.
What people get wrong
Not advice — these are the questions we make sure you can answer.
Assuming payroll covered everything
Tax taken off a salary is not tax on income earned elsewhere. Is your side income already accounted for? We keep it visible so you can answer.
Mixing it with the household account
When the side money lands in the same account as the groceries, the year becomes unreconstructable. We keep the hustle's records separate from day one.
Waiting for it to get big enough to matter
Records are much easier to keep than to recreate. Starting the books early costs you minutes; starting them late costs you a weekend.
Start with this month
Add one invoice and one slip. The books build themselves from there.
Not quite you?
Every figure comes from your own records, double-entry, with the working shown. We don’t guess at tax law — Ledgr keeps the books and shows you how each number was reached, so you and your accountant are looking at the same thing.
