New integration offers customers automated tax compliance, reporting tasks and field service management capabilities for greater efficiency
Zuper, a leading solutions provider to scale and modernize fast-growing service businesses with field operations, announced its integration with Avalara, Inc., a leading provider of cloud-based tax compliance automation for businesses of all sizes. Avalara offers a comprehensive suite of tax compliance services allowing businesses to easily determine tax obligations, calculate sales tax and assess use tax, manage exempt sales, file and remit returns, and more.
Service businesses often operate in multiple domains, each with its own tax rates and regulations. Changing tax structures and manual tax inputs leaves room for error, leading to potential under or overpayment of taxes. Zuper’s integration with Avalara is designed to address this challenge by ensuring businesses of all sizes maintain accuracy and compliance with differing tax regulations. Avalara verifies customer addresses across 12,000+ tax jurisdictions in the US and employs real-time data syncs with Zuper to help improve tax compliance and management.
“Manually managing complex processes like sales tax for businesses takes focus away from deslighting customers and growing your business,” said Anand Subbaraj, Zuper CEO. “Streamlining operations and improving productivity through innovation and technology is a mission we share with Avalara, and combining the power of our platforms will enable our mutual customers with field service teams to save time and money, and create peace of mind around tax compliance.”
Avalara’s end-to-end product and services suite includes Avalara AvaTax for sales and use tax calculations, Avalara Returns for returns filing, Avalara Exemption Certificate Management to address exempt sales and document management, and a range of additional compliance automation offerings, including Avalara Business Licenses, Avalara Tax Research, Avalara Property Tax and more.

Today’s integration announcement underscores the essential need for businesses, especially those dealing with heavy transaction volume, to access proven tax compliance automation and become more efficient, save time and resources, and better allocate personnel to business building activities. This shift to smart automation can lead to better scalability and growth, and certainly increased compliance, including surety during audits.
“Zuper understands the needs of its customers, and their integration offering reduces complexity for field service businesses in many ways,” said Meg Higgins, senior vice president of Global Partners at Avalara. “We understand that digitization of business processes is not an option, it is essential; we are proud to offer fast, accurate, and easy tax compliance solutions to our shared customers.”
