About GigPulse
A free tax calculator and resource for Canadian gig workers.
What is GigPulse?
GigPulse is a free, web-based tax calculator designed specifically for Canadian gig workers. Whether you drive for Uber Eats, SkipTheDishes, DoorDash, Instacart, or other delivery platforms, GigPulse helps you estimate your tax obligations using official 2026 Canadian tax rates.
We're not a SaaS platform, subscription service, or tax filing software. We're a simple tool to help you understand how much to set aside for taxes so you're not caught off guard come tax season.
How It Works
GigPulse uses official CRA data including federal and provincial tax brackets, CPP and CPP2 contribution rates, and CRA prescribed automobile allowance rates. Simply enter your province, gross income, and business expenses to get an instant estimate of your tax obligations.
The calculator shows you your net self-employment income, CPP contributions, federal and provincial taxes, and a suggested amount to set aside each quarter.
Important Disclaimer
GigPulse is a planning tool for informational purposes only. The estimates provided should not be relied upon for filing your actual tax return. Tax laws change, individual circumstances vary, and this tool does not account for every possible tax credit or deduction.
Always consult a qualified CPA or use CRA-certified tax software for your actual filing. GigPulse and its creators are not responsible for any discrepancies between these estimates and your actual tax obligation.
