Customers can combine this with Avalara Returns for Small Business, a recently announced new product that helps small businesses automate the sales tax return preparation process and eliminate the hassle of manually filing returns to each state website.

“Today’s consumers expect an easy online shopping experience from start to finish, and our goal as an ecommerce platform is to ensure retailers have all the tools necessary to make that happen,” said Russell Klein, chief commercial officer at BigCommerce. “With an industry-leading partner like Avalara automating sales tax calculations, the online checkout process is simplified, giving consumers the experience they want while simultaneously freeing up resources so merchants can focus on the all-important task of growing revenue rather than managing the back-office minutiae of tax compliance.”

BigCommerce and Avalara have partnered since 2012 to alleviate the burden of sales tax compliance and to support growing ecommerce businesses by automating mandatory processes. Through the partnership, Avalara solutions provide ecommerce merchants the ability to automate sales tax compliance from calculation through tax return preparation, filing, and payment.
