Electronic and Automated Sales Suppression

An increasing number of states are passing so-called “Zapper Laws” in an effort to crack down on merchants that use electronic sales suppression to evade sales tax. The space is ever-evolving, with policy struggling to keep up with evasion technology, and evasion technology iterating to stay one step ahead of policy. Necessarily, some folks that have not engaged in sales suppression are going to get swept up — and that is why we are here.

Data Analytics and Fraud Defense

As “Zapper” technology evolves, tax authorities must rely on increasingly attenuated evidence of suppression. We bring to bear more than three decades of experience in data analytics and audit and electronic commerce.
