Compare
lexo.tax vs other tax-help options.
A fair, honest comparison. All Lohnsteuerhilfevereine work under the same German law (§ 4 No. 11 StBerG). The differences are in fees, service quality and digital experience.
What's always the same
- Same scope under § 4 No. 11 StBerG: employment, pension, rental, investment income.
- Same legal obligations: annual audit, supervisory authority, professional liability.
- Income-based annual fee, capped at €429.
Where lexo.tax is different
- Fixed personal advisor: You always speak to the same person, not a ticket queue.
- Modern digital workflow: Encrypted upload, e-signature, video call – without losing the personal contact.
- Transparent pricing: No add-on fees per annex, no rush charges, no appeal fees.
- Fast turnaround: Most returns are filed within 2–3 weeks of all documents in.
When another provider might fit better
- You only want a physical office in a specific town we don't yet serve.
- You have business or freelance income – then you need a Steuerberater.
- You want a fully self-service tax-software experience (Taxfix, Wundertax) and not a personal advisor.
