Navigate Complex Economic Nexus Rules
The 2018 South Dakota v. Wayfair ruling significantly changed sales tax laws, allowing states to require out-of-state retailers to collect and remit sales tax based on factors like the number of transactions or total revenue (economic nexus).
The Avalara integration is built to handle this reality and reduce your need to manage it.

Frequently Asked Questions
Why is sales tax compliance so challenging for a multi-state equipment rental software business?
Due to the 2018 Wayfair Supreme Court ruling, businesses must now track “economic nexus” in every state. This means you may be required to collect and remit sales tax in a state even without a physical presence, leading to complex and constantly changing rules for different products and locations. The Avalara integration automates this tracking and calculation to keep you compliant.
How does an Avalara integration help me avoid tax audit problems?
Our integration with Avalara helps ensure your books are accurate in the case of an audit by providing automated reporting and filing. Avalara provides 24/7 access to your sales tax history and reports and also automates the process of collecting and storing required exemption certificates.
Can Avalara handle filing and remittance for multiple tax jurisdictions?
Yes. The Avalara integration simplifies the process of filing sales tax returns by allowing you to remit taxes to multiple jurisdictions with a single payment, saving you significant time and administrative effort.
