@cmuratori Try FastSpring. They actually a reseller so you don't need to deal with sales tax yourself.1 reply 0 retweets 0 likes -

@mehowte WA state law _specifically forbids_ you from claiming that someone who just provides downloading services is the retailer.1 reply 0 retweets 1 like -

@cmuratori Hmm. They claim to handle: tax collection, compliance and payments on your behalf, including U.S. state taxes and EU’s VAT.2 replies 0 retweets 0 likes -

@mehowte Not for them, of course - but for _you_, if you live in a state that de-retails "download service providers" like FastSpring.1 reply 0 retweets 1 like -

@cmuratori That's a bummer. It seems making e-commerce tax compliant might be even harder for US then.1 reply 0 retweets 0 likes -

@mehowte So basically what you'd have to do is set them up to collect shipping addresses _as if_ you were shipping real goods :(1 reply 0 retweets 1 like -

@cmuratori In that case I'd still get accountant to consult how to handle this crazytown. That's what we do in Poland at least :)0 replies 0 retweets 0 likes
