Fiserv’s Clover Boosts Small Business Efficiency With Automated Sales Tax Compliance via Avalara Integration
Automated Sales Tax Compliance Arrives Natively in Clover Platform
Fiserv (NASDAQ:FISV) is enhancing its Clover® point-of-sale platform through a new integration with Avalara, a leader in tax and compliance technology. This partnership aims to deliver a fully embedded, automated sales tax compliance tool directly within Clover, transforming how small businesses handle one of their most complex administrative burdens.
Real-Time Tracking and Daily Set-Aside Simplify Merchant Workflows
Powered by DAVO by Avalara, the integrated solution automatically sets aside sales tax funds daily, tracks tax obligations in real time, and guarantees on-time filing and remittance—all managed from within the Clover ecosystem. This means merchants can avoid the common pitfalls of mingling tax dollars with working capital, reducing risk and protecting their cash flow. Funds dedicated for tax are securely held in a separate account until remittance, eliminating surprises come tax time.
| Feature | Benefit for Merchants |
|---|---|
| Automated Daily Set-Aside | Prevents mixing tax funds with operating capital; improves cash management |
| Real-Time Tracking | Immediate visibility into tax obligations; reduces guesswork |
| Automatic Filing & Remittance | On-time tax payments; lowers compliance risk |
| Sales Tax Rate Updates | Automatic, accurate rate changes reduce manual errors |
Reducing Complexity While Supporting Growth
The integration not only removes the headache of managing changing sales tax rates, but also automates compliance as tax laws evolve. "Together with Avalara, we’re simplifying sales tax compliance for Clover merchants, delivering automated compliance and reducing administrative work," said Will Karczewski, SVP and GM for Clover at Fiserv. This level of automation is expected to free up small business owners to focus on customers and business expansion rather than tax paperwork.
Looking Ahead: More Compliance Features to Come
The initial embedded tool will launch later this year, with Fiserv and Avalara planning future phases that include business license guidance and additional filing services, further broadening compliance support for merchants. As regulatory demands and tax complexity increase, such embedded tools stand to become essential for small businesses seeking efficiency and peace of mind.
Main Takeaway: Immediate Efficiency Gains and Future Flexibility
Fiserv’s collaboration with Avalara on the Clover platform underscores the growing demand for intuitive, fully automated back-office solutions in the small business arena. The partnership enables smarter cash management, lowers compliance risk, and lets entrepreneurs spend less effort on administration and more energy on growing their business.
