STF Partners with Avalara

Electronic forms provider STF Services Corp. has entered into a marketing pact with online sales and use tax concern Avalara, to license STF's flagship SuperForm product. Terms were not disclosed. Avalara's AvaTaxST --which automatically calculates and reports sales tax -- will now include a forms utility that would create automated returns. Currently, AvaTax ST has four functional components: o Customer address validation; o Tax jurisdiction research; o Sales and use tax calculation; and, o Secure reporting for tax filing and audit purposes. "STF's interactive forms technology and years of experience in dealing with the myriad taxing jurisdictions will streamline the sales tax compliance burden with Avalara's system, and help deliver value to customers," remarked STF's president, Charlie Ter Bush, in a statement.
