Tax Service Recommendation for a Rails App? [closed]

Question

I'm developing a cart that needs to calculate tax and am looking for a 3rd party tax service to handle the calculations.

I've used Avalara in another app, but it's somewhat miserable since I have to use the Rjb gem with their java library.

Does anyone have a recommendation for a tax service that works well with rails?

Answer 1

I don't know what capabilities for tax calculations are in the library, but ActiveMerchant is an awesome utility for E-Commerce applications. It is well documented and in active development.

Its variety of payment processors might provide you with the calculations you need.
