TaxiCaja or Taxio: which one should ride with you?
Both were built to put an end to jotting rides down in a notebook or a spreadsheet. Here's what each one actually does today, verified on their own websites and store listings, so you can choose with the comparison in front of you, not marketing.
What both apps do well
Real profit, not just revenue
Both subtract your expenses from the money coming in to show you what you actually earn, not just what the meter bills.
Reports ready for your accountant
TaxiCaja and Taxio both export to Excel and PDF, so closing the month doesn't depend on piecing together receipts and screenshots.
Free trial, no card
Both let you try a full 7 days without asking for payment details upfront.
Where TaxiCaja has the edge
This isn't an attack: if this is what you need, TaxiCaja will serve you fine and you probably don't need to switch.
Also on Android
TaxiCaja works on iOS and Android, according to its own website and its App Store and Google Play listings. Taxio, today, is iPhone-only (Android is on its way).
100% anonymous sign-up
According to its website, TaxiCaja only asks for an email to sign up: no name, ID number or plate. Taxio asks for a profile name to identify you inside your account.
Lower entry price
If you drive solo and don't need automatic commission or fleet mode, €19.99/yr (per its website and store listings, as of this comparison) is less than Taxio's Driver plan.

Questions from anyone torn between the two
Does TaxiCaja calculate the Uber, Bolt or Cabify commission automatically, like Taxio?+
No, according to its website and store listings as of this comparison: TaxiCaja doesn't mention any rideshare or taxi platform, nor an automatic commission engine. Each ride's amount is logged by hand, and the profit comes from subtracting the expenses you enter yourself. Taxio, on the other hand, applies each platform's percentage — Uber, Bolt, Cabify, Free Now, Joinup, Imbric and PideTaxi — automatically to every ride.
Can I use TaxiCaja if I manage a fleet of several cars?+
Based on what its website shows today, TaxiCaja is built for a self-employed taxi driver working alone: no multi-driver management feature appears. Taxio includes a fleet owner mode, with up to 4 drivers on the corresponding plan, with the detail of every shift and every ride per driver.
Which is cheaper, TaxiCaja or Taxio?+
For someone working solo who's fine with manual logging, TaxiCaja (€19.99/yr or €2.99/mo, according to its website) costs less than Taxio's Driver plan (€39.99/yr or €4.99/mo). That difference buys automatic per-platform commission; for someone managing a fleet, Taxio's Fleet owner plan (€83.99/yr, up to 4 drivers) has no equivalent in TaxiCaja.
