What it is
AccurateTax provides TaxTools, a cloud-based SaaS product for e-commerce sales tax compliance. It calculates sales tax in real time from customer addresses, product taxability, and applicable tax rules. Address refinement converts customer information into a US Postal Service-approved format. Businesses can use reporting to file returns independently or select services covering registration, filing, and payment. Optional exemption certificate management handles documents for exempt transactions. TaxTools connects with Ability Commerce, Adobe Commerce, Magento Open Source, Miva Merchant, osCommerce, Shopify, ShopSite, Stone Edge Order Manager, and WooCommerce. An XML-based API supports custom carts and other applications. AccurateTax identifies itself as a Streamlined Sales Tax Certified Service Provider and says free service is available under the SST contract where applicable. It supports tax return filing, nexus monitoring, exemption certificates, and marketplaces. Pricing is quoted according to order volume and optional services; a free trial is available.
