SEATTLE, WA--(Marketwired - May 2, 2016) - Avalara, Inc. a leading provider of tax compliance automation for business, today announced Chargebee, Inc., a subscription management and recurring billing solution, has joined Avalara's community of certified solution partners. Avalara's solution partners are software publishers that integrate Avalara's software as a service (SaaS) offering for sales tax management directly into their own applications.

In addition, Chargebee users can add Avalara's tax return preparation, filing, and remittance services.

Krish Subramanian, Chargebee co-founder and CEO said, "Managing sales tax is a significant requirement for accurate invoicing and compliance. In an increasingly regulated and complex tax landscape, advantages such as geo-specific tax rate updates, reduced efforts on tax filing and tax liabilities, address validation across nearly over 10K tax jurisdictions etc., are a huge boost. And that's where Avalara comes into the picture; our partnership will simplify the process of sales tax compliance for recurring revenue businesses."
