Add Sales Tax to Your Service Offering—Without the Heavy Lifting

Thanks to economic nexus laws, the requirement for businesses to support multi-state sales tax compliance has exploded. If you’re offering CPA, CFO, bookkeeping, or other financial services, you probably have many clients asking for sales tax support. 

But what are your options? You can refer them to a sales tax provider. Hopefully, you have a strong partner who values your clients as much as you do, or you can sign up for a filing service that just handles state returns. You’ll do most of the work, and it can add up!

So, how is Zamp breaking the mold? We’ll discuss our new Z-Tax offering below.  

State of the Sales Tax Industry

Sales tax is complex. And since the South Dakota v. Wayfair decision in 2018, economic nexus laws have spread nationwide, creating a new reality for businesses that sell remotely. Companies now need to monitor their sales activities across multiple states, as crossing certain thresholds triggers tax collection requirements regardless of physical presence.

Technology solutions have become one way for accounting firms to manage these complexities for their clients. After all, not tracking your clients’ transactions can come with hefty costs if you don’t register, file, and remit when they’ve hit a new threshold.

However, not every sales tax solution is created equal. Most companies will still have to do the work—set up, integration, registrations, product taxability mapping, monitoring, updating, notice management, etc. Plus, you’ll be waiting around for hours or, in most cases, days to ever get a response from a customer support team.

But Zamp is different.

The Better Way Forward

What if there were a white label option where you could offload all of the heavy lifting to your sales tax partner, add a recurring revenue stream with predictable margins, and most importantly, deliver a better client experience? 

That’s why we’ve launched Z-Tax, Zamp’s white label service for partners. We’re bringing the power of our managed solution to partners that want to add sales tax to their toolkit and want more than just a filing service.
