"Technology is a gift of God. After the gift of life, it is perhaps the greatest of God's gifts. It is the mother of civilizations, of arts and of sciences" --- Freeman Dyson
Globally and through physical and digital platforms, today's commerce is borderless and multichannel. Governments are catching on and are modifying their compliance rules in order to acquire taxes through new channels, goods, and other sources. In order to retain compliance as their operations expand, businesses must provide quick, consistent checkout interactions.
"Global commerce has prompted more businesses to adopt technology to power their operations. At the same time, businesses have come to expect more services from a single technology platform instead of bolting on new solutions for every business requirement", noted Avalara's Chief Technological Officer, Danny Fields.
