How much of that gig fee should you keep?

Nobody withholds taxes from a gig check — you do. Enter a fee and see what to set aside for self-employment tax, income tax, retirement and expenses, and what's actually yours to spend.

US general information, not tax advice. Self-employment tax is estimated at ~15.3% of net earnings (Social Security + Medicare); your real numbers depend on deductions, your state, and your total income. Talk to a tax professional about your situation.

Get paid straight into your own account. ActBook deposits and payments go direct to your Stripe — you're the merchant of record, and it's easy to see what you've earned.
