Wickie × CoinTracking: your portfolio, your profit & loss, and your tax report in one place

Learn how to import your Wickie activity into CoinTracking to track your portfolio, profit and loss, and taxes.

Written by Marius Wickie Support

Buying and selling crypto is the easy part. Knowing what you actually own, what it cost you, and what you owe at the end of the year is where most people get stuck. That's exactly what our collaboration with CoinTracking is for.

Why this matters

Most people don't hold crypto in one single place. There's the exchange where you bought your first coins, the wallet on your phone, maybe a hardware wallet in a drawer, and your Wickie account. Each one shows you a number, but none of them shows you the whole picture.

That becomes a real problem in two situations. The first is when you want to know whether you're actually up or down — a balance tells you what you hold today, but not what you paid, what you sold along the way, or whether you're in profit once fees are counted. The second is tax season. In most European countries a taxable event happens when you sell, swap or spend crypto, not when you cash out to your bank account. Reconstructing a year of that by hand in a spreadsheet is painful and easy to get wrong.

CoinTracking solves both by doing one thing well: it takes your transaction history from everywhere you trade, puts it into a single ledger, and calculates the rest for you.

What CoinTracking actually does

CoinTracking is a portfolio tracker and crypto tax calculator that has been around since 2013. You give it your transaction history — by file upload, by API connection, or by entering trades manually — and it turns that raw history into something readable.

Give it your trades, deposits, withdrawals and fees, and you get a single portfolio view across every exchange and wallet you use. Give it your purchase prices and dates, and you get realised and unrealised profit and loss, per coin and overall. Tell it your country and accounting method, and you get a tax report built to local rules, exportable as PDF, Excel or CSV for your accountant.

It supports hundreds of exchanges, wallets and blockchains, and for anything without a ready-made connection there's a generic CSV importer where you map the columns yourself. That's the route Wickie users take, and it takes a few minutes, not an afternoon.

One note on accounting methods: FIFO, LIFO, HIFO and average cost can produce very different numbers from the exact same transactions. CoinTracking lets you choose, but which one is allowed depends on where you're tax resident. If you're unsure, use the method your accountant tells you to.

What Wickie users get

Because of the collaboration, anyone coming from Wickie gets better pricing than the public rate. You get a lifetime discount on CoinTracking plans — it applies for as long as you keep the plan, not a first-year promotion that quietly resets — and extra savings when you pay in BTC, on top of the Wickie discount.

CoinTracking also has a free tier. If you only make a handful of transactions a year, start there, see whether the tool fits how you think, and upgrade when your history outgrows it.

How to get set up — three steps

  1. Export your activity from Wickie as a CSV. Log in to your Wickie account and download your transaction history. The file contains the dates, amounts, currencies and fees CoinTracking needs. Export the full period you want covered — if you're preparing a tax report, that means the entire tax year, not just recent months.

  2. Upload the file to CoinTracking. Go to Enter Coins → Bulk Imports → CSV Import and upload the file. You'll be asked to match the columns in your file to CoinTracking's fields: date, type, amount, currency, fee. Save the mapping once and every future import reuses it automatically.

  3. Add your other sources, then run the reports. Repeat for any other exchange or wallet you use, so your cost basis is complete. Once everything is in, your dashboard shows the full portfolio and profit and loss, and the tax report can be generated for your country and exported for your accountant.

Import everything, not just the profitable part

A tax report is only as accurate as the history behind it. If a purchase is missing, CoinTracking has no cost basis for that coin and will treat the whole disposal as gain — which usually means a higher number than you actually owe. Missing transactions are flagged in CoinTracking so you can fix them before generating the report.

A note on scope

This article is general information, not tax advice. Crypto tax rules differ by country and change over time, and nothing here accounts for your personal situation. For decisions about your own filing, speak to a qualified tax adviser in your country of residence.

CoinTracking is an independent third-party service. Wickie is not responsible for its pricing, availability or the content of its reports. Crypto assets are volatile and the value of your holdings can go down as well as up.
