I am so grateful for this service!
Verified reviewer
- I love just about everything about Taxjar - the interface takes a little getting used to but they have tutorials for everything; the reports are spot-on and they have APIs for everything that I need for my business
- Customer service is always clear, concise and professional
- I think that the auto-filing fees are a bit high
- I wish the pricing for this feature could be changed based on how may filings you have per month, maybe

Super-simple API integration to add tax handling to a web application
Easy addition of tax handling to our web application.
- TaxJar was very easy for us to implement, didn't require hoops and red tape to get setup, and has been foolproof for us so far
- The error messages (when our input is incorrect, for example) have been clean and easy to correct
- It's a great comfort knowing we don't have to worry about the tax implications of transactions -- we just submit the data to TaxJar and they tell us how much to charge
- Awesome
The API does not yet have a way to automate creation of new accounts (if you are building a framework using TaxJar for multiple clients this does add the additional step of having to require the client to create their own account)

Please do not Waste your money in this company
Horrible!! Now I am looking for an alternative. If someone ever pays me a million dollars, I will never sign up with these guys.
- I signed up with this company since the start of my business back in 2014
- After signing up installation was pretty easy as all I had to do is install the plugin and few clicks it was all set
- So, I never needed a human interaction
- December 2018 I updated my software, since then this plugin isn't working
- What that means is, this software did not collect a single tax from customer
- I file my taxes quarterly
- In January i logged in to get the report, that's when I discovered that tax jar is not collecting any taxes
- Due to my busy schedule I couldn't contact them right away
- Then when I finally did contact them by sending them an email, I did not get a response from these guys for over a month
- Then I sent a follow up email beginning of this month
- I am still waiting on the resolution
- What is the issue you may ask
- When I try to connect my store (magento 1), it gives an 301 redirects
- They told me it has something to do with my server side
- Hosting company saying they don't see anything wrong with my site or the server
- They do not provide any phone service
- So, all these communication is going on via email
- Wanna hear the response time
- First email sent on May 6th, didn't hear anything back from them until 2 days later
- Sometimes I am going 2/3 without any response
- No Phone Support - Email support takes 2/3 days to a week, sometimes no response - Basically no support

Nice for State Taxes
I like all of it, got the 30 day free trial. It's great to use Taxjar if you're selling online, makes managing state sales taxes for shipments easy. State sales tax is a huge pain for most businesses just because taxes are so different across states, but Taxjar makes it simple.
- It integrates with Walmart, Amazon, Shopify, and most other major online sellers, makes taxes for selling multichannel very easy
- The integration is fast and sends data automatically
- They could always add more channels, but Taxjar has the big channels covered

Centralizes and Aggregates a Ton of Information
Used monthly for more than 2 years
- Tax Jar helps me take 10,000 orders and pulls information like zipcodes so that I can figure out exactly how much tax is owed in each individual municipality
- It centralizes policy, and knows if I have a nexus in each state and how much I owe in each locality
- It knows things like if shipping and giftwrapping are taxable in states
- I can't imagine running my small business without it
- The interface stinks - I frequently have to have 6 or 7 tabs open at once just to fill out one state's tax return
- But, I'll take function over fashion on this one

Taxjar saves us so much time!
We love using TaxJar and we would highly recommend it.
- I love how much time we save each month with TaxJar
- Filing sales tax in North Carolina is a bear of a chore
- TaxJar shaves off ~2 hours each month for us
- Unfortunately, TaxJar has a hard time calculating the 2% food tax special rate in North Carolina
- Not a deal breaker

- this is life saver, do the whole amazon/ebay orders sales tax process smooth
not sure if they offer submission service and filing sales tax that would be great

Hands down the best solution for E-commerce businesses.
Paying taxes for my Shopify online E-Commerce store was being very hard given all the customers I get were from all around the world. Tax Jar got my problems off my shoulders. One less thing to worry about now.
- It's extremely easy to integrate with your Shopify website
- And it's very easy to use as well
- The free version does not give you enough options
- For an emerging startup as mine, it was hard to pay for it initially
