Frequently Asked Questions

• How does Kintsugi calculate tax on my Checkout Champ campaigns?

  Once you activate the Kintsugi tax engine plugin on a campaign, Kintsugi calculates sales tax at checkout in real time and uses that same transaction data to track your obligations and prepare your filings.

• Do I need to enable the tax plugin on every campaign?

  Yes, the plugin only calculates tax on the campaigns where it's active. Turn it on for each Checkout Champ campaign you want covered, and our team can help you activate it across everything you're already running.

• What Checkout Champ data does Kintsugi use, and does it include upsells?

  Kintsugi pulls your customers, products, and full campaign orders, including upsells and order bumps, directly from Checkout Champ. Nothing needs to be exported or entered twice, and your tax picture stays current as campaigns run.

• Can I run Kintsugi alongside my current Avalara or TaxJar setup on Checkout Champ?

  Yes, and that's the easiest way to start. Connect Kintsugi to Checkout Champ and run it in parallel with your existing tool while you evaluate, with no need to rebuild your campaigns. When you're ready, our team helps you make the full switch on your own timeline.

• I run campaigns across multiple states. Can Kintsugi keep up?

  es. Kintsugi tracks your economic nexus threshold exposure state by state, using your Checkout Champ order data as the source of truth. As your campaigns reach new customers, Kintsugi flags new nexus automatically and keeps your exposure current.

• How does Kintsugi handle refunds on a Checkout Champ campaign?

  Refunds sync from Checkout Champ automatically, and Kintsugi adjusts your tax liability at the transaction level. That keeps your filings matched to what you actually collected, order bumps and upsell refunds included.

• Is Checkout Champ data safe once it's connected to Kintsugi?

  Yes. Kintsugi holds SOC 2 Type II certification and connects to Checkout Champ using least-privilege API access, meaning we only ever touch the data we need. Everything is encrypted both in transit and at rest, and we can walk your security or finance team through our documentation on request.

• Does Kintsugi actually file my sales tax returns, or just calculate tax at checkout?

  Both. Beyond calculating tax on your campaigns in real time, Kintsugi uses your Checkout Champ data to register where you have obligations, prepare and file returns, and handle remittance, so filing isn't left for your team to manage separately.
