Common questions

Can I import my Pokerbase data into PokerCharts?

Yes. Export your sessions from Pokerbase as CSV and PokerCharts auto-maps the columns. Your full session history, bankroll, and locations transfer.

Does PokerCharts have an iPhone app?

Open PokerCharts in Safari, tap the Share button, then Add to Home Screen. You get an app icon that launches like a native app — full screen, offline support — but without going through the App Store. Automatic updates, one login that syncs to every device.

Does PokerCharts have an Android app?

PokerCharts works on Android via Chrome — tap the install prompt or use Add to Home Screen for an icon that launches in standalone mode with offline support. No Google Play download needed, no app permissions to approve.

Does PokerCharts handle taxes better than Pokerbase?

Yes. PokerCharts has jurisdiction-specific tax reports for the US (Schedule 1/C, W-2G), UK, Canada, and Germany built in. Pokerbase exports data but does not generate jurisdiction-specific tax forms.

Is PokerCharts cheaper than Pokerbase?

PokerCharts is free for 10 sessions, then offers flexible billing: $4.95/month (monthly, no lock-in), $9.95/3mo (quarterly), $14.95/6mo (semi-annual, $2.49/mo equivalent), or $23.95/yr (annual, $1.99/mo equivalent — our cheapest). Pokerbase has a free tier and a Pro plan around $5.99/month. PokerCharts is cheaper at every commitment level — the annual plan is about a third of Pokerbase Pro's monthly rate, and even our monthly plan beats theirs.

Can I track home games and split payouts?

Yes — PokerCharts has a home game settlement calculator that takes each player's buy-in and cash-out and computes the minimum transfers needed to settle. Pokerbase does not include this feature.
