Based on a number of questions from new users, we’ve changed the way you get started on Paybackable. Before, after signing up and choosing the categories you wanted to use, we would drop you into an empty list of expense reports, requiring you to create a new expense report before getting you to the actual task of expense and mileage entry.
Now, we automatically create your first expense report for you, called “My First Expense Report” and drop you right into the page to begin entering transactions. Plus, you can change the name of the expense report by clicking on the title itself and changing it right there.
Thanks to all the people who have asked questions or provided feedback - you’re making the service that much easier to use!

It will probably come as little surprise to learn that gasoline prices have doubled in the last 7 years, from a US average of $1.50 per gallon in 2001 to $3.00 a gallon in 2008. In fact, you can see a 2006 congressional chart showing the growth.
Now compare that to the standard business mileage deduction. Over the same period of time, the government has increased the deductible rate for small business owners like us from $.345 to $.505, an increase of 46% (see this IRS page for the rate changes over time.)

We’ve added a tour of Paybackable, complete with screen shots, so folks can get a sense for what the site can do before signing up.

Based on some very helpful and constructive feedback from our users and a number of web forums, we’ve updated the look and feel with a more polished look, including additional color and icons. Please let us know what you think.

Big changes today! Now you can track your mileage expenses using the IRS standard deduction (which just went up to 50.5 cents per mile for 2008.)
- Automatically grabs the correct IRS rate based on your date of travel
- Any mileage expenses are included in the relevant expense report
- Reimbursable miles, for employees and vendors, can be imported into QuickBooks (which doesn’t provide this feature itself:-)
