The story
TaxJar was founded in 2013 to automate US sales tax compliance (calculation, nexus tracking, reporting, AutoFile) for e-commerce sellers on Amazon, Shopify, Magento, and similar platforms. In 2021 it was acquired by Stripe and now operates as a wholly-owned subsidiary (TPS Unlimited, Inc.) alongside Stripe Tax — TaxJar targets non-Stripe SMB sellers with US-only sales tax needs while Stripe Tax handles global VAT/GST for Stripe customers.
