Preparing Your Poloniex Taxes

The first and most important step when using Summ is to import all your crypto data onto our platform. If you have just traded on Poloniex Summ can calculate your Poloniex tax, otherwise, you can find out your general tax obligation and a profit and loss breakdown by token.

There are two ways to import your transactions from Poloniex, an API, or a CSV history upload.

4. Save your API and secret keys

On Summ:
