Sales tax is the unsexiest problem in ecommerce. It is also one of the ones that bites hardest as you scale.
We've had clients come to us not collecting sales tax in states where they've had nexus, with millions of dollars in liabilities.
Forget ambulance-chaser lawyers for ADA compliance and the California Invasion of Privacy Act; the last thing you want is State tax collectors breathing down your neck... they don't just go away.
We've outsourced this problem for our clients to Numeral, who just raised a $100M Series C.
The moment a brand starts growing, it owes compliance in every state where it crosses nexus.
Registrations, filings, remittance, exemption certificates, plus physical mail from dozens of departments of revenue.
Miss one filing and you eat penalties and interest. No founder or finance team should spend time on that in ecommerce.
Numeral is the done-for-you solution. Registrations, filings, mail handling, product classification, handled end-to-end.
Congrats to the entire Numeral team!
Not having to think about sales tax ever again is a blessing for any e-commerce brand, and this latest round underscores that.
