Forget about tracking rates, rules changes and tax holidays. AvaTax continuously updates data, making accurate sales tax calculations available immediately within FoxyCart. Minimize audit risk using advanced address validation, sourcing and taxability determination and jurisdiction assignment technology. AvaTax dynamically delivers billions of tax decisions and applies them across 10,000+ jurisdictions at the point of transaction.

Redeploy staff resources and avoid spending time and money on audits and penalties. AvaTax is a scalable, subscription-based Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) offering that is tailored to each customer’s specific needs.
