About Hnry
Hnry reimagined sole-trader taxes as something that happens continuously instead of annually. Every payment a freelancer receives passes through their Hnry account, where the engine instantly calculates and deducts income tax, GST, and levies like ACC and KiwiSaver — then files the returns when they're due. No provisional tax surprises, no year-end scramble.
Founded in New Zealand in 2017, Hnry expanded to Australia and the UK, operating as a combined business account and accountancy service priced at roughly 1% of income (capped).
An automated tax engine calculates and instantly deducts income tax, GST, and levies from every payment a sole trader receives, then files the returns on their behalf — no manual bookkeeping.
Highlights
- Deducts and pays tax obligations per-payment, not at year end
- Pricing ~1% of self-employed income, capped
- Founded in New Zealand; now also serves Australia and the UK
