Own Tax Season. Capture Loyalty. Unlock Data.
Bring Canada’s first CRA-certified embedded tax filing platform directly into your ecosystem — boosting deposits, retention, and customer stickiness while giving you verified tax insights.
Every year, millions of Canadians leave their financial institutions to file taxes elsewhere.
They log into third-party apps like Wealthsimple Tax, TurboTax, and H&R Block to file their returns, often taking their refunds and other opportunities with them. For you, this means:
Embedded tax filing changes this. By integrating CloudTax directly into your platform, you keep tax season — and your customers — in your ecosystem.

Traditional KYC data is often stale. Tax data is different: it’s verified by the CRA, updated annually, and reflects life events with accuracy. With user consent, CloudTax shares back valuable tax insights that power smarter decisions:
Updated KYC: Spouse status, dependents, employment, address.
Income verification: Salaries, self-employment, and investment income.
Financial journey: Where they work, where they invest, what deductions matter.
Life events: New jobs, new dependents, moves, retirements.
This means:
We understand how conservative Canadian institutions must be. That’s why compliance and security are at the heart of CloudTax.
