Sales tax, minus the spreadsheet panic.
Store programs can create sales tax questions fast. SSM helps reduce that burden by collecting and remitting applicable sales tax for hosted store transactions as the marketplace facilitator.
What this means for your team
No multi-state filing maze for every store order.
Instead of pushing every tax detail back to the distributor, SSM handles applicable tax collection and remittance through the platform. This should be reviewed by legal/accounting before final publication, but it is one of the core operational relief points.
At Checkout
Applicable tax collected
Taxes are calculated and collected through the hosted store flow. It happens at checkout, so buyers see the right total up front. Nothing has to be reconciled onto the order later.
Filing & Submission
Remittance handled
SSM files and remits applicable sales tax for store transactions. That work sits with the marketplace facilitator, not with your team. You are not chasing filing windows for each store.
Less Admin
Reduced compliance clutter
Fewer tax rabbit holes for distributor teams to fall into. Store programs can launch without a separate tax project attached. Your team stays focused on the client relationship instead of paperwork.
This is an operational benefit, not tax advice
