## Kintsugi Reviews
  ### 1. Easy Setup, Fair Pricing, and Responsive Support

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Business Supplies and Equipment | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** April 17, 2026

**What do you like best about Kintsugi?**

I like how easy it is to set up and use, how responsive and knowledgeable the support team is, and that the pricing feels fair for the value it provides.

**What do you dislike about Kintsugi?**

One minor downside is that I keep getting a notification to register for tax in a foreign jurisdiction that I do not actually need to register in, and there is no way to suppress it, but I would rather be over-notified than under-notified.

**What problems is Kintsugi solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Kintsugi is solving the complexity of tracking sales tax obligations across different states and jurisdictions, which would otherwise be time-consuming and easy to get wrong. It gives me clarity on where I actually need to register and file, helps me stay compliant, and saves me a lot of time and stress so I can focus on running the business instead of worrying about tax issues.

  ### 2. User friendly with minimal interruption

**Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Maniteja T. | Financial Controller, Retail, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** July 24, 2025

**What do you like best about Kintsugi?**

The amount of time spent on filing sales tax is numerous and with kintsugi we could really save lot of time and their team is completely helpful and reachable

**What do you dislike about Kintsugi?**

The only difference we identified from getting services from CPA to kintsugi is we have few products that are exempted from sales tax but kintsugi is not pro-active in letting us know compared to CPA's who does this immediately.

**What problems is Kintsugi solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Kintsugi is helping us saving a lot of time and Almost everything is taken care by their team. If you are ECommerce company then you should try kintsugi

  ### 3. Kintsugi = Less Stress, More Done

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Nojah L. | Executive Assistant and Finance, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** August 15, 2025

**What do you like best about Kintsugi?**

Tried Kintsugi for the first time and it made the sales tax way less intimidating. Super quick to set up, takes care of everything from tracking to filing, and even uses AI to catch issues before they become problems. Feels like having a tax pro on call 24/7.

**What do you dislike about Kintsugi?**

Sometimes the dashboard feels a little busy at first glance, so it took me a moment to figure out where everything lives. A few tooltips or quick-start guides could make it even easier for first-time users. That said, once you know your way around, it’s smooth sailing.

**What problems is Kintsugi solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Kintsugi takes the headache out of selling in multiple states with different tax laws. Instead of manually tracking varying rates and rules, it automatically keeps everything compliant and up to date. That means fewer mistakes, no scrambling during filing, and more time to focus on actually growing the business instead of decoding tax codes.

  ### 4. Professional & efficient service

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Retail | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** July 23, 2025

**What do you like best about Kintsugi?**

I like that there is the app, but most importantly there are humans behind the app that you can interact with to ask questions, get clarification, etc.  I like that someone is paying attention in the background.  We were with a competitor before and they basically deserted us after the onboarding process.  But at Kintsugi, they are there through the whole process.  We've now filed 2 quarterly Sales Tax Reports and everything went smoothly.

**What do you dislike about Kintsugi?**

There is a bit of tech to understand on their app, but I had a team of their staff who walked me through all the app features and areas I needed clarification on.  So, if you're not super techy, you might need their support.

**What problems is Kintsugi solving and how is that benefiting you?**

My biggest problem was the time it took me to manually figure out the breakdown of the local taxes between county and city taxes for filing the Sales Tax Report.  Kintsugi's app took our data from Shopify and filed the report for me.

  ### 5. Real People Giving Real Service

**Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Ariana B. | O, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** July 23, 2025

**What do you like best about Kintsugi?**

Kintsugi’s intuitive interface is informative but simple and easy to navigate. We had a single, live human onboard us (shout out to Jonathan!) and he was smart, friendly, and responsive. That process was mostly smooth, and the platform’s automation capabilities helped us streamline our workflows almost immediately. I especially appreciate how easy it is to integrate Kintsugi with our existing tools, which saves us tons of time and reducing manual work. I'm so glad fellow execs agreed to let me try Kintsugi instead of deferring to Avalara!

**What do you dislike about Kintsugi?**

I'm maybe a bit torn on the pricing model, because I love a flat rate - $75/filing - but kind of wish it was lower for states that require monthly filings instead of quarterly. The product approval model could use some work for special use cases like ours, BUT! Their support team offered to take over the lift while they do dev to improve it for us, which is amazing! The support resources and responsive customer service team made the transition much easier.

**What problems is Kintsugi solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Previously, state sales taxes were done by a local bookkeeper using an outside platform. We never knew how much she was going to charge and because we lacked oversight, we never quite knew which state sales tax would be drafted  or when. We also didn't know how to access the state sales sites ourselves, and ended up paying a state we didn't need to pay any more for a long time. With Kintsugi, we know the exact amount and cadence of their fees and the dashboard gives us total insight into nexus, registrations, and filings.

  ### 6. 100X Easier than what we were doing

**Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Aaron H. | Co-Founder, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** July 23, 2025

**What do you like best about Kintsugi?**

Kintsugi has made handling sales tax so much easier. We used to work with an agency that did everything manually. We had no clarity on when states would be filed nor the ability to approve them on a state by state basis. We also had low visibility on nexus within states. 

Kintsugi is the 2025 modern approach to sales tax and has made life a lot easier for a process (sales tax registration and filings) that sucks for everyone anyway.

Support has been awesome as well.

**What do you dislike about Kintsugi?**

Transitioning registrations over was a little hassle. Not their fault just a tedious process because it has to be done for every state individually.

**What problems is Kintsugi solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Pretty much any sales tax related issue they have solved for us: What states do we need to file in? When do we need to file? How much do we need to file?

  ### 7. Sounded good on surface. Got ghosted.

**Rating:** 0.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Information Technology and Services | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** January 14, 2026

**What do you like best about Kintsugi?**

Able to create a free account and try their platform to see what things will look like.

**What do you dislike about Kintsugi?**

Lack of customer service. Data wasn't showing properly (states being marked as exposed when we have no taxable products in the state) and I wasn't going to commit to a contract with them until they can solve the issue. They claimed to be working on it but never gave me an update after 1+ month and ignored my follow up email. Their ads keep showing up in my social media and kept reminding me about being ghosted. That prompted this review.

**What problems is Kintsugi solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Was hoping they could be a cheaper alternative to a sales tax tool while still maintaining the same level of customer service, but that wasn't the case.

  ### 8. Decent Software, good customer service

**Rating:** 3.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Mo H. | Staff Accountant, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** July 18, 2025

**What do you like best about Kintsugi?**

I like the dashboard - I can easily see what needs to be actioned. The customer support is pretty good - things are actioned timely when we reach out.

**What do you dislike about Kintsugi?**

We launched kintsugi around the same time we launched new invoicing software and we had a lot of issues. It felt like the size of our organization was a learning curve for kintsugi. Things have much improved now that we have gotten over the hurdles from the beginning. I think the issue of loading past years' data into kintsugi when we had no issues in filings was handled poorly, but has now been resolved.

**What problems is Kintsugi solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Our tax filings are calculated for us and filed for us which is great for our small accounting team.

  ### 9. Great experience-highly recommended

**Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Luisa F. | Founder, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** July 25, 2025

**What do you like best about Kintsugi?**

What I like the most is that I don't have to worry about filing sale tax anymore. I didn't start a business to worry or learn about taxes, having Kintsugi taking care of that for me is priceless.
The onboarding was quick and easy. Now I literally have to push one button to have my taxes filed.

**What do you dislike about Kintsugi?**

Being all automated it can be hard to receive an answer from a human is something goes wrong but so far I didn't have any problem.

**What problems is Kintsugi solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Kintsugi solves the problem of understanding how sale tax work for business owners. It has saved me a lot of time and headaches.

  ### 10. What a refreshing partner!

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** John R. | CEO, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** July 14, 2025

**What do you like best about Kintsugi?**

Unlike the previous vendor that we used for state tax filings, Kintsugi seems to actually care. They educate us when appropriate and this just functions like you hope a partnership would (does not feel like a vendor relationship). Very hopeful that this relationship continues to operate like this because we will be long term customers if it does.

**What do you dislike about Kintsugi?**

Honestly, this is a hard question. I wish Shopify gave them access to the checkout so they could inject the tax rates but I understand why Shopify has this locked up.

**What problems is Kintsugi solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Kintsugi is streamlining the state tax filings process. They are making a very complicated system more approachable and easier to understand.

  ### 11. Good fit for smaller startups or those with less tax complexity

**Rating:** 3.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Scott J. | Assistant Controller, Marketing and Advertising, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** July 14, 2025

**What do you like best about Kintsugi?**

Nice dashboard that shows sales, tax exposure and tasks. Great to see everything visually there. Mail integration can be useful. Having their support when registering has been great and their team has been supportive and responsive. You get a lot without paying the high prices of other solutions.

**What do you dislike about Kintsugi?**

Lack of netsuite integration or ability to upload transactions manually. I understand the netsuite api is on the roadmap but it would be great to be able to quickly upload sales transactions via a csv or manually until that is ready instead of requesting the Kintsugi team to upload them.

**What problems is Kintsugi solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Sales tax compliance, registrations, and filings. Tracking exposure.

  ### 12. Absolute game changer for small business owners

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Jordan S. | Owner, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** April 03, 2025

**What do you like best about Kintsugi?**

Kintsugi simplifies a very complex and time consuming process. I am used to working with platforms that are marketplace facilitators, so when I wanted to grow my website more, I had no idea everything that went into taking care of sales tax on your own. I am able to take back more control of my business and not have to worry if I am missing something as we grow. It was so easy to integrate with my boutique via Shopify and the process has just been seamless so far. It is monitoring my shop 24/7 and I never have to worry that something is falling through the cracks.

**What do you dislike about Kintsugi?**

I honestly have not experienced any downsides. There is always a learning curve when it comes to learning a new platform but it was very user friendly and straight forward and anything I didn't understand fully, the customer support team was on it immediately.

**What problems is Kintsugi solving and how is that benefiting you?**

I am trying to grow my business outside of platforms like TikTok shop and take back more control. The problem I came across was that TikTok shop is a marketplace facilitator, so it does all of the sales tax portion for you. It collects the sales tax from purchases and remits it for you and there really is nothing you have to do. When I started shifting my business to my website, I had to do all of that and I did not realize everything that went into it, nor do I understand the majority of it. Kintsugi does all of it for me, makes sure I am covered in the locations I need to be registered in and continues to monitor for when I may need to get compliant in another state. I can grow my business in other areas and not have to worry about the legalities.

  ### 13. Huge Step Up from Manual Processes and Traditional Accountants

**Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Consumer Goods | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** July 24, 2025

**What do you like best about Kintsugi?**

We’ve been overall delighted with our experience using Kintsugi. Compared to our previous manual approach and other third-party accountants, this has been a significant upgrade. The platform’s dashboards make it easy to get a real-time glance at our sales tax nexus, which has been incredibly helpful for peace of mind and compliance tracking.

While we did encounter a few hiccups in our initial filings, the team course-corrected quickly, and we haven’t experienced any errors since. The responsiveness and transparency throughout gave us confidence in the system.

Highly recommend for startups looking to simplify sales tax management without handing everything off blindly.

**What do you dislike about Kintsugi?**

Had some errors integrating with Stripe invoice that lead to errors in the initial filing. However, have had plenty of manual and accountant errors.

**What problems is Kintsugi solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Faster sales tax conmpliance.

  ### 14. Finally a tax app that WORKs with great SERVICE!

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Apparel & Fashion | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** July 17, 2025

**What do you like best about Kintsugi?**

I am so happy I found Kintsugi. First off, their technology and dashboard is so easy and clear to understand.  Unlike some other tax apps that are very confusing they have laid it out all very clean.  Second, and probably the most important positive is there service and team has been incredible. They truly have been a powerful resource to help me get my shop setup correct for tax obligations and always go the extra mile to help and respond fast!

**What do you dislike about Kintsugi?**

I haven't had any issues but I would assume if you start opting in for autofiling it could get quite expensive for smaller shops but we don't have that issue yet.

**What problems is Kintsugi solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Helping us keep Nexus information correct and helping us with filings by each state!

  ### 15. I hate Avalara - I really want them to succesed

**Rating:** 3.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Thomas M. | Operations/IT, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** July 17, 2025

**What do you like best about Kintsugi?**

The ease of use, the intuitiveness. its API and the team that are really trying to make something great.

**What do you dislike about Kintsugi?**

the main show stopper for us is that their Colorado tax rates are calculated by zip code and not roof top which is a show stopper for us as CO is our home state and puts us at compliance risk. Please fix this. I dont want to sign a 18 month contract with avalara.

**What problems is Kintsugi solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Sales tax compliance

  ### 16. Solved all of our sales tax issues!

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Retail | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** July 19, 2025

**What do you like best about Kintsugi?**

We've been with Kintsugi for several months now. The best thing when we first started was that they were able to onboard us with almost all 50 states we hit nexus with simultaneously with ease and frankly everything has been smooth sailing from there. They are connected to our Shopify, and we just approve the filings each month/quarter. Simple as that. Literally Sales tax filings are just one thing we don't need to worry about anymore.

**What do you dislike about Kintsugi?**

I can't think of a downside. They are excellent and frankly a lot cheaper than the comptetition.

**What problems is Kintsugi solving and how is that benefiting you?**

  ### 25. Sales Tax Returns are so easy now

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** sherri w. | FarmHer, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** March 17, 2025

**What do you like best about Kintsugi?**

Kintsugi has taken on all responsibility for filing our state Sales Tax Returns.  They do it automatically and notify me of the filing and payment.  Customer Support was fantastic when we first signed up.  What was a quarterly ordeal is now a "notification email".  Soon our small business will do monthly returns and I am thankful for Kingsugi.

**What do you dislike about Kintsugi?**

the implementation was a challenge for us, but that's because we find Sales Tax Returns to be cumbersome.  Their customer support walked us thru the process.

**What problems is Kintsugi solving and how is that benefiting you?**

automatically complete and file return saving me hours each month.

**What do you like best about Kintsugi?**

Onboarding was just two steps and implepentation manager made it really seamless. Integrated with Stripe with a single sharing. Very intuitive UI with visibility of where we owe money and why.

**What do you dislike about Kintsugi?**

Takes care of US taxes for all states but needs to expand to global too.

**What problems is Kintsugi solving and how is that benefiting you?**

While you can collect sales tax with Stripe, estimating your liability and paying it is way harder. Kintsugi automates that process and saves a $$ in the process.
