Zamp, an end-to-end managed sales tax solution, launched a "white-label" product called Z-Tax, enabling accounting partners to integrate a sales tax compliance solution into their own offerings. The platform manages clients' entire sales tax life cycle, handling account setup and updates, nexus monitoring, registrations, product taxability mapping, calculation, reporting, filing and handling tax notices. It can also determine precise sales tax rates based on the exact physical location of a transaction, down to the rooftop, with the company boasting a near 100% accuracy rate. Changes to sales tax rates, jurisdiction boundaries, product taxability, filing requirements and more are reflected immediately. It also automates the filing, registration and compliance processes. Zamp says it works with all online sellers, whether a client is selling consumer products, health care supplements, digital services, SaaS, etc. The solution has a deep library of product tax codes in the U.S. The launch comes at the same time as the conclusion of a $10 million Series A round led by Valor Equity Partners, with participation from Zeni, Andersen Executive and Silvia Aguierre (formerly of Avalara). Zamp's investors include tennis champ Venus Williams, Day One Ventures, Mike Stoppelman (former SVP of engineering at Yelp), Adrian Fenty (a16z advisor and former Mayor of Washington, D.C.), and more. Only a year after launch, Zamp says it has grown its ARR 600% to mid-seven figures in revenue, supporting hundreds of e-commerce and SaaS businesses. The company also has onboarded over 50 accounting and bookkeeping partners.
