Sales tax is the compliance gap most tax pros don't find until it's a problem.
A client gets a nexus notice. Or triggers economic nexus in three states, and has no idea.

That's where Kintsugi comes in.

We automate the monitoring, registration, and filing so your clients stay ahead of exposure, not scrambling to catch up after the fact.

We'll be at Latino Tax Fest June 22–25 in Las Vegas.

Come find us at Booth #206, we'd love to talk about how to turn sales tax compliance into a service your firm actually offers (instead of a liability you inherit).

Nobody's ignoring sales tax compliance on purpose.
The exposure builds because nobody agreed on who owns it.

Finance assumes product is watching nexus.
Product assumes finance owns the filings.
Engineering connects the integration and considers the job done.
And exemption certificates? Nobody has a clear answer on those.

The result isn't negligence. It's diffusion.

And it builds quietly until a state notice arrives, a diligence review surfaces a liability, or a filing error triggers a penalty.

The most common handoffs that break down:
- Nexus monitoring sitting unassigned between finance and whoever owns the billing system.
- Filing ownership inherited by whoever figured it out once and became the default by proximity.
- Integrations treated as one-time events when any channel change, platform switch, or FBA expansion can quietly break the data flow.
- Exemption certificates that expire without a system to track them.
Product taxability classifications set at launch and never updated as the product evolves.

Each of these gaps has the same cause: compliance requires coordination across teams that don't naturally talk about it, on a schedule that doesn't align with anything else, with consequences delayed enough to feel abstract.

Until they're not.

Your ERP is already doing the heavy lifting. Your sales tax compliance should be too. 💡

We just launched our integration with Campfire , the AI-native ERP built for high-growth finance teams and it's exactly the kind of setup we love building.

Here's how it works:
Connect Campfire to Kintsugi once, and we handle the rest. We sync your products, customers, and invoices directly from Campfire to monitor your tax exposure, auto-classify your products by tax category, and alert you the moment you're approaching a nexus threshold in a new state.

No data entry. No manual uploads. No compliance gaps hiding in your books.

If your finance stack is already AI-native, your tax layer should be too.

Your supplement might be tax-exempt. Or it might not. ↓

Taxability for dietary supplements varies by state, and getting it wrong means either under-collecting (hello, audit exposure) or over-collecting (hello, refund obligation).

The fix is proper product classification. When your products are mapped to the right tax codes, Kintsugi handles the rest automatically.

Selling on Shopify? Here is what your platform is not telling you about sales tax.
Shopify collects tax at checkout. That feels like enough. It is not.

Here is what actually needs to happen for you to be compliant:

- Nexus monitoring. Every state has an economic nexus threshold, usually $100K in sales or 200 transactions. The second you cross it you are required to register. Shopify does not track this for you or alert you when you hit it.

- State registration. Once you hit nexus in a state you need to register with that state's Department of Revenue before you can legally collect and remit tax there. Shopify does not do this.

- Return filing. Every state you are registered in requires you to file returns on their schedule. Monthly, quarterly, or annually depending on your volume. Miss a filing and penalties start accruing immediately. Shopify does not do this.

- Marketplace vs direct channel liability. If you sell on Amazon, Etsy, or any marketplace alongside your Shopify store, your liability calculation gets more complex. Marketplace facilitator laws shift some of the responsibility to the platform but not all of it. You need to know where the line is.

- Audit defense. If a state audits you, you need records, documentation, and someone who can respond on your behalf. Shopify gives you a report. That is not the same thing.

Do a nexus check. Know which states you are exposed in. Handle it before a state notice handles it for you.

Your clients are selling online, hiring remotely, expanding into new markets.

Each of those moves may be triggering sales tax obligations nobody is tracking.
Most businesses don't know they have multi-state exposure until it's already a problem and states are getting faster at finding them.

You already know you need to sort out sales tax.
You've known for a while.

But every time you go to figure it out, it turns into this: Which states am I even liable in? Do I need to register? What about my exempt customers? Do I file quarterly or monthly? What if I already missed a deadline?
And then you close the tab and go back to running your business.

Jared Stark, Owner of Incendico Fire Alarm Store, is an accountant and even he found the multi-state sales tax requirements overwhelming when he expanded beyond eBay into Shopify and Stripe.

His setup with Kintsugi? A few hours. On his own. No lengthy implementation or consultants.

Connected Shopify, Stripe, and QuickBooks through prebuilt integrations.

Clicked the links, signed in, and his data synced automatically. Full visibility into his tax exposure across 19 states and 2 countries, done.

The thing you've been putting off doesn't have to be a huge undertaking.
