Why we recommend Chrome for the best TaxTank experience

For the best experience using TaxTank, we recommend using Google Chrome as other browsers may not fully support TaxTank’s features.

Updated over a month ago

For the best experience using TaxTank, we recommend accessing our platform via Google Chrome. Here’s why Chrome is the ideal browser choice for using TaxTank’s powerful tools, whether you’re managing your taxes, finances, or budgeting.

1. Enhanced Security

Your security is our top priority, and Chrome is one of the most secure browsers available. Chrome is designed with cutting-edge security features, like built-in phishing and malware protection, which helps keep your data safe while using TaxTank. Chrome’s automatic updates also ensure it has the latest security patches, meaning you’re protected from new vulnerabilities as they emerge.

2. Superior Speed and Performance

Chrome is known for its speed and performance, which means faster load times and smoother interaction with TaxTank’s features. TaxTank offers real-time tax calculations, live bank feeds, and a range of tools that run most efficiently on a browser optimized for speed. Chrome is designed to work quickly, even with more complex processes, so you can enjoy a seamless experience when managing your finances.

3. Compatibility with Advanced Features

TaxTank uses modern web technologies to provide features like live tax updates, budgeting tools, and property management features. Chrome consistently supports the latest web standards, meaning that all of TaxTank’s functionality will load properly and perform as expected. Some browsers may lack support for newer features, which can cause issues with display or performance. With Chrome, you can be confident that you’re using TaxTank at its full potential.

4. Regular Updates

Google Chrome’s frequent updates mean that it stays compatible with any changes in TaxTank. As we update our features and improve our platform, using an up-to-date browser like Chrome helps you avoid issues that can arise with outdated software.

5. Wide Compatibility Across Devices

Chrome’s popularity means it’s widely compatible across various operating systems, including Windows, macOS, and mobile devices. This makes it easy to access TaxTank from whichever device you prefer, with the same smooth experience.

Non-Supported Browsers

While Chrome is our recommended browser, we understand some users may prefer alternatives. However, certain browsers—including Brave, Safari, Microsoft Edge and Opera —may not fully support all TaxTank features, and some may even interfere with functionality.

For example, Brave and Opera offers its own VPN, firewall, and ad-blocking features to enhance privacy. While these are beneficial for general browsing, they may inadvertently block critical features needed for TaxTank’s full functionality, like live bank feeds or data synchronisations. In some cases, VPNs or firewalls can prevent secure connections, interfere with loading essential scripts, or cause slowdowns. These limitations can impact your experience with TaxTank’s real-time tax calculations and automated financial updates.

To get the most out of TaxTank and ensure full functionality, we recommend using Chrome, which is specifically compatible with all our features.
