Massage Money Tracker
Massage Money Tracker | 2026 Excel Bookkeeping Template for Massage Therapists
HOW IT WORKS
- Once a week, open your Square report and enter what you made. One row per payment method. Prefer to go day by day? Flip one switch on the SETUP tab.
- When you spend money on the business, add a row and pick a category from the dropdown. The ledger puts it on the right line of Schedule C for you.
- Make a mistake? The row turns red and tells you exactly what to fix. You can't break it.
- At tax time, when the Dashboard says "All clear," send the file to your tax person. Done.
WHAT'S INSIDE
- 12 monthly tabs (Jan–Dec): income on the left, expenses on the right
- Dashboard with a "books health check" that catches problems before your CPA does
- Mileage Log with the 2026 IRS rates built in (72.5¢ through June 30, 76¢ from July 1). It picks the right rate from the trip date.
- Laundry Log with a cost-per-load calculator for laundromat, home washing, or linen service
- Tax Prep Summary laid out line by line like Schedule C, ready to hand to your CPA
- Income totals by payment method, so matching your Square 1099-K takes minutes
- 35+ massage-specific expense categories already matched to tax lines: CEUs, liability insurance, linens, table repairs, card fees and more, with room to add your own
- A plain-English guide (PDF). Page 1 is all you need to start. The rest answers questions as they come up.
