Collecting sales tax from your customers is an important part of any ecommerce business. The way you approach sales tax can directly impact your customers’ checkout experience — and your bandwidth as a business owner. When sales tax is calculated after the fact, customers can be deterred from completing purchases or becoming repeat buyers because of the unexpected added cost. For business owners, especially those who sell in multiple states, manually setting up tax rates can be an overwhelming task with little margin for error. With automatic sales tax calculation, you can save time and encourage customers to build trust in your brand and more readily complete purchases.

With TaxJar, you can automatically calculate sales tax for your customers at checkout. When a customer decides to make a purchase, TaxJar will calculate and display sales tax as soon as they enter their shipping address. Automatic tax calculators create a more transparent, straightforward checkout experience, and they also help simplify backend management of your business. TaxJar’s fast, accurate calculations mean you don’t have to keep track of regional tax rates yourself, or worry about miscalculations. Looking for more information?

TaxJar Professional offers additional tools such as reporting, filing, and nexus insights. Users may upgrade to TaxJar professional for an additional cost.
