Tax Services in San Antonio for Startups & Businesses

San Antonio businesses have no personal income tax to track, but Texas's franchise tax, often called the margin tax, applies to most entities once revenue crosses a set threshold, calculated on a margin basis using one of several allowed methods, not straight profit.

Businesses that don't separate cost of goods cleanly often end up on the more expensive margin calculation. Profitjets tracks your revenue against the franchise tax threshold, calculates your margin under whichever method actually benefits you, and registers and files your Bexar County sales tax at the correct combined rate.

CFO, Lonestar Logistics

"We sell across a few Bexar County locations and our sourcing rules were wrong for two of them. Profitjets corrected the categorization for each."
