You already work the games. RefTraq turns that schedule into a season P&L and a tax-ready Schedule C — every game fee, every mile, every deductible dollar.
The average official leaves $1,500+ in deductions on the table every year — and fall is when it piles up. Every drive you don't log between now and December is money gone.
Free beta · no credit card · works in any browser. Game tracking stays free forever.
Feeds carry your schedule; your rate table prices it. No assigner passwords, ever.
Built by a working Texas football & baseball official — and running on his own decade of games first.
Your assigning platform hands you games. RefTraq handles the rest — and we label honestly: two of these are live in the free beta today, two are on the roadmap.
Every mile at the IRS rate, twelve officiating-specific expense categories, year-to-date deductions, and estimated self-employment tax — ending in a CPA-ready Schedule C export with an IRS-format mileage log. Conservative by design: capture everything, let your CPA decide.
Your schedule syncs in automatically and your own rate table fills in the fees. See the whole season as a P&L across every sport you work, know exactly which games still owe you, and check them off as the money lands.
The group-text logistics — who's driving, where to meet — attached to the game they belong to. In development.
Game cards, crew cards, and pay sheets auto-filled from data already in the app. In development.
No new habits during the season — the work happens where the data already lives.
Point RefTraq at the calendar feed your assigning platform already publishes. New assignments flow in on their own. Off-schedule game? Add it from your phone in 15 seconds.
Enter your fee schedule by sport, level, and position — travel fees included. From then on, every synced game prices itself. No platform exposes fee data; your rate table is the fix.
Two-tap mileage from any game at the current IRS rate (76¢/mi Jul–Dec 2026 — RefTraq tracked the midyear change so you don't have to), expenses as they happen, and at tax time a one-click Schedule C CSV your CPA will actually thank you for.
Assigning platforms schedule you. Generic tax apps don't know what a Plate fee is. Nothing connects the two — that's the job.
