Creator Tax Tracker 2026/27 UK – Influencer & Content Creator Tax Spreadsheet with Tax Set-Aside

Brand deals, UGC, affiliate commission, ad revenue, creator funds, and the PR packages that usually count as income too. This tracker keeps it all in one place and works out the tax your creator income adds, using UK rules for 2026/27, so you know what to set aside from every payment.

What it does

• Income and gifted products: every payment, plus products and trips sent in exchange for content, counted at their value.
• Real 2026/27 maths for England, Wales and Northern Ireland: Personal Allowance (with the taper over £100,000), 20%, 40% and 45% bands, and Class 4 National Insurance at 6% and 2%.
• On top of your job: it works out the extra tax your creator income adds to your employment or pension income, so you set aside the right amount.
• Trading allowance check: uses the £1,000 allowance if it beats your expenses.
• Payments on account: what's due on 31 January 2028 (balance plus first payment on account) and 31 July 2028, using HMRC's £1,000 and 80% rules.
• Making Tax Digital and VAT checks: whether MTD starts for you in April 2027 or April 2028, and a £90,000 VAT warning.
• HMRC categories from the self-employment pages, mileage at 55p then 25p a mile, and use-of-home flat rates (£10, £18 or £26 a month).
• Put-aside %: the share of every payment to move into your tax pot, and key dates with a countdown.

An estimating and record-keeping tool, not tax advice: it doesn't file anything. Figures were checked against official sources in October 2026.
