Questions? We've got answers.
Why is Sails so much cheaper than TaxJar?
We built Sails specifically for small online store owners — not enterprise businesses. We don't need a giant sales team or fancy offices. We pass those savings to you.
What happens after my free trial?
After 14 days, you can pick a paid plan or stay on Free forever. The Free plan lets you monitor nexus and calculate taxes — you only pay when you need store integrations.
Can I change plans later?
Yes! Upgrade or downgrade anytime. Changes take effect on your next billing cycle.
What does the free plan include?
Nexus monitoring across all 50 states + DC, unlimited tax calculations, calculation history with CSV export, and email support. No time limit, no credit card.
Do you file my sales tax returns for me?
Not yet — filing assistance is coming soon. Right now Sails helps you track where you owe, calculate how much, and reminds you of deadlines so you can file yourself.
I'm just a hobby seller. Do I even need this?
Maybe not yet! Use our free nexus monitoring to see if you've crossed any state thresholds. Many states require collection at $100K in sales or 200 transactions.
Is Sails a CPA or tax advisor?
No — we're software that helps you track and calculate sales tax. You review and submit returns yourself. For complex situations, we recommend consulting a tax professional.
