Vertex integration
Enterprise tax technology.
Vertex is the enterprise standard for indirect tax — sales tax, VAT, GST, and consumer use tax — across thousands of jurisdictions. PeakCommerce calls Vertex inline at checkout to calculate tax accurately and posts committed transactions back for filing and audit.
What you can do
- Real-time sales tax, VAT, and GST calculation in checkout
- Address validation and jurisdiction assignment for compliance
- Post committed transactions to Vertex for returns and audit
- Manage exemption certificates against Vertex Exemption Certificate Manager
- Support nexus tracking and rate updates without code changes
How it works
Vertex O Series / Vertex Cloud REST API called inline at checkout authorization. Authentication is configured once from the PeakCommerce console — no middleware or custom infrastructure required. Events flow bidirectionally in near real time, with retries and a full audit trail surfaced in the operations console.
Built on the same security foundation
Every integration runs on PeakCommerce's SOC 2 Type II–certified infrastructure with encrypted-at-rest credentials, scoped access tokens, audit logging, and granular permissioning. Tokens are stored in our hardened secrets vault and never exposed to customer-facing surfaces.
