Need to change the value of your reimbursable mileage or switch to tracking in kilometres?
The business rate and distance unit can both be changed from the MileIQ web dashboard (login using the same email and password as the app).
Once logged in to the dashboard, click on the ‘Settings’ button next to your username and navigate to the ‘Rates and Units’ section.
Edit the business rate:
The reimbursement rate used to calculate the value of business drives is by default set to current HMRC standard rates, but can easily be adjusted by navigating to Settings > Rates & Units
From the Rates & Units section of the Settings page, a custom rate can be set for each Kind of vehicle.
For example, the 2024 default rate for cars/vans is 45p per mile for the first 10,000 business miles, but by clicking and typing in the text box, any amount can be entered (rate must be greater than $0.00). The same goes for all rates above and below 10,000 miles for cars/vans, motorcycles, and bikes. Clicking 'Update Rate' will set the new rate throughout MileIQ. Any reports that are submitted will also reflect the updated rate.
Edit the distance unit:
The unit MileIQ uses to calculate distance can be changed by toggling the 'Use Metric Units (KM) for distance' to Yes or No. Sliding the toggle to the green 'Yes' will cause MileIQ to re-calculate the distance (and therefore the value) of all drives in MileIQ. Any reports that are submitted will also reflect the new distance unit.
