How it sells itself

TaxDelta audits the sales tax you already collected. Standard scans your full order history, and the free plan checks your last 60 days. It flags tax over-refunded on partial refunds, exempt orders charged tax, tax below the state rate, and tax collected in states where you aren't registered. Each finding shows the order, amount, and severity.

TaxEqual reads your Shopify orders, refunds, products and locations and reports the sales tax your store collected, by state and local jurisdiction, as Shopify charged it. It compares your sales and transactions with each state's registration threshold (economic nexus) and alerts you as you approach it and when you cross it. Each report shows what is due for a filing period, with the orders behind every figure.

Key points
  • Detects tax overpayment from partial refunds across all jurisdictions
  • Flags undercollection when collected rates fall below state base rates
  • Identifies tax collection in states where you're not registered
  • Flags exempt orders that were charged tax or need a filing check
  • Economic nexus tracked in every US state and DC, with approaching alerts
  • Collected sales tax by state and locality, exactly as Shopify charged it
  • Filing-ready reports per state and period, exported as CSV, Excel or PDF
  • Marketplace-remitted orders separated out, off-platform sales folded in
