Case Study: Bodybuilding.com reduces sales tax compliance burden and boosts accuracy with Sovos

Bodybuilding.com eases its sales tax burden with Sovos

Bodybuilding.com, a leading online retailer of health and fitness supplements, was expanding into new jurisdictions and facing complex, multi-jurisdictional reporting that created inaccuracies and customer frustration. To eliminate self-remittance errors and reduce audit risk, Bodybuilding.com selected Sovos and implemented the Sovos Sales & Use Tax Determination and VAT solution.

Sovos provided an automated, scalable and customizable platform that required less coding and fast implementation, enabling Bodybuilding.com to quickly "turn on" new products and jurisdictions (most recently France) and apply consistent goods-and-services coding. The Sovos solution substantially increased tax accuracy, eased the company’s compliance burden, and freed tax and finance staff to focus on growth-oriented work.
