TaxJar Releases Automated Sales Tax Tool For eCommerce

Sales tax management software maker TaxJar has released TaxJar Pro an automated local sales tax reporting tool designed specifically for accountants who serve eCommerce clients with accounts on Amazon, Shopify, eBay, Etsy and PayPal.

Accountants that sign up for TaxJar Pro can invite clients to personally link their Amazon, Shopify, eBay, Etsy and PayPal accounts to TaxJar. As a result, clients won’t have to share their personal passwords or access to any of their ecommerce accounts. The accountant can then access sales tax reports for each client from a single interface.

“The idea of TaxJar Pro was driven by our customers,” said TaxJar chief executive Mark Faggiano. “Accountants were telling us that filing state taxes for ecommerce businesses took an average of five hours per client because they had to manually examine each sale and determine where goods were shipped. With TaxJar, we knew accountants could reduce this entire process to 30 or 40 minutes.”
