ItsDeductible was discontinued on October 21, 2025. If you have questions, contact Intuit support.
Charity Record is built to help former ItsDeductible users continue tracking donations. If you exported your ItsDeductible data before the shutdown, you can import it to Charity Record. Learn more.
Yes! If you exported your data from ItsDeductible before October 21, 2025, you can import those CSV files into Charity Record. We support all four ItsDeductible donation types (items, cash, mileage, stock & securities), going back to 2010 if you have them.
Beyond ItsDeductible, we've also added vehicles, digital assets, and art & collectibles, plus support for private stock donations.
If you import the same file twice, our importer detects duplicate donations automatically and lets you preview before finalizing the import.
Charity Record is free up to $500 in donations tracked so you can try it out and see if it works for you. For unlimited tracking, it's $29.99 per year.
No credit card required to start. We offer a 30-day money-back guarantee. If you cancel, you can export all your data within 30 days.

We provide suggested valuations based on IRS Publication 561 guidelines for common donated items. You can search our database or enter custom values.
Important: These are estimates, not professional appraisals. For individual items (or groups of similar items) valued over $5,000, IRS rules require a qualified appraisal. Individual items over $500 require Form 8283. You are responsible for the accuracy of your valuations.

I'm focused on making Charity Record as good as ItsDeductible first, then making it better over time. The plan is to launch with core features working well, then add improvements based on what you need. Here's the rough roadmap:
Launch (November/December 2025)
Full import support and the core features from ItsDeductible.
Quick Wins
Small improvements that'll save you time, like entering multiple conditions for the same item at once, and merging duplicate items.
Before Tax Season (planned)
TXF export for direct import into TurboTax Desktop.
Later in 2026
Attach receipts and photos to your donations for better record-keeping.
Down the Road
Features to make tracking easier, like auto-populated item donations and receipt scanning.
No promises on timing or whether these will happen, but they're on my list of things I'd like to explore.

Since 2014, my wife and I had been happily using ItsDeductible to track our donations. When Intuit first announced they were shutting it down in 2023, we talked about building a replacement – of course, they reversed the decision that time, so we didn't bother.
Fast forward to October 2025, and Intuit announced a shutdown again. My wife and I talked about it again and agreed that tracking everything manually would be a massive pain... so I built Charity Record, haha.
We're our own biggest testers here! We figured other ItsDeductible users might find the tool helpful, too – and with a few more features, it'll hopefully be useful for anyone else who wants to track their donations.
