Migration
How to switch from Navexa to Metrifly
Navexa and Metrifly both handle CGT, franking and foreign income — so the decision is workflow and price, not a feature gap on paper. Prove that with your own data.
Export broker files, not just reports
Download CSVs from each broker and exchange you track. Report PDFs alone rarely rebuild parcel history correctly if you need to change allocation methods later.
Import and map entities
Set Individual, Company, Trust or SMSF portfolios to match how you lodge. Metrifly Standard adds multi-portfolio and entity-aware reporting if you need it.
Match holdings to broker statements
Quantity, cost base and YTD dividends should tie to your broker — especially after DRPs, ETF distributions and crypto disposals.
Compare tax exports side by side
Run CGT and income reports in Navexa and Metrifly for the same year. Investigate any variance in parcels, AMIT adjustments or FITO before you cancel.
Switch when you trust the Metrifly output
Keep Navexa through at least one reconciliation cycle if history is complex. Subscription savings only matter after reports agree.
Because both products target AU tax, a one-week trial is not enough — budget time for a full-year dry run if you have AMIT, foreign income or crypto.
Australian tax reality check
Reconcile the awkward rows, not the brochure
Trust distributions with AMIT components, foreign withholding, crypto-to-crypto disposals and DRP-created parcels are where two AU-tax trackers diverge. Those are the lines to match in a parallel run.
Best fit
Choose the tracker that fits your workflow
A useful comparison should help you decide, not pretend one product is best for everyone.
Metrifly is likely a fit if
- You want an ongoing free tier instead of a timed trial while you import real broker data.
- You want a lower entry price for one portfolio with tax reporting and are willing to re-reconcile once.
- You track crypto or foreign shares beside ASX holdings and want one import workflow.
Consider staying put if
- Navexa already reconciles your portfolios and your accountant prefers its export layout.
- You depend on a Navexa integration or report Metrifly does not yet replicate.
- Re-importing multi-year history would reopen parcel fixes you have already done in Navexa.
Decision points
The bits that change the answer
No generic checklist: these are the trade-offs Australian investors usually discover only after importing real data.
Trial vs free
Time pressure changes the test
A 14-day trial forces quick imports. Metrifly Free lets you reconcile at EOFY pace — useful when history spans multiple brokers.
Tax parity
Assume feature parity until proven otherwise
Both products list CGT, franking, AMIT and FITO. Your migration test is whether exports reconcile — not whether a marketing page ticks the same boxes.
Stay if
Sunk reconciliation is real
If Navexa already survived an accountant review, switching for a few dollars a month without a parallel run is often false economy.
FAQ
Questions, answered
How do I migrate from Navexa to Metrifly?
Export broker CSVs, import into Metrifly with the correct entity type, reconcile holdings to broker statements, then compare CGT and income reports for the same tax year before cancelling Navexa.
Is a 14-day Navexa trial enough to decide?
Often not for complex portfolios. Metrifly Free lets you import and reconcile without a trial clock — useful when you have AMIT, foreign income or crypto to validate.
When should I stay on Navexa?
Stay if Navexa already reconciles your history, your accountant prefers its exports, or re-importing would reopen parcel work you have finished.
Do Metrifly and Navexa cover the same AU tax features?
Both target CGT, franking, AMIT and foreign income on paper. Run a parallel EOFY dry-run on your own data — that is the migration test, not the feature list.
