Migrating from Avalara's bev-alc product

A concrete checklist for wineries leaving Avalara's bev-alc product as the Performant Capital carve-out plays out.

If you're on Avalara's bev-alc product, the Performant Capital acquisition (October 21, 2025) means the product is being deprioritized. The broader AvaTax SaaS remains active. Only the bev-alc compliance assets were carved out under the Performant deal.

What Ratify replaces

  • Registration-aware destination tax (in development)
  • Real-time order compliance gating (planned)
  • AI-grounded compliance answers (coming soon)

What Ratify does NOT replace today

Managed tax filing is a separate add-on planned for a later phase and is NOT included in any current Ratify tier. If you currently rely on Avalara or Sovos for managed filing, you will need a separate filing provider or in-house process during the migration window. Bottom line: filing is separate from what Ratify replaces today.
