illi News/10040777

SAN DIEGO - illiNews -- Zip Refund recently celebrated its tenth year as a national tax brand and is heading into the eleventh season of successfully providing an alternative solution to owning one of the large tax franchises. There are currently over 300 Zip Refund tax offices across the country and that number grows annually.

For over a decade, the company's business model has provided tax preparers that want to get out of working a tax job to be able to start their own business under the Zip Refund brand. Zip Refund does not have any large fees as franchises do and there are no out of pocket costs to get started like some companies who charge thousands.

Zip Refund works with both EFIN owners and PTIN only holders and has a unique model to ensure the preparer's success. It allows people who have an EFIN to get a turn-key set up with no out of pocket expenses paid to the company. There is no reason to have to spend a lot of money on software when you can be using that money for client marketing. There are no out of pocket expenses paid to Zip Refund and all monies paid by the preparer come out of any returns that are done through the Zip Refund software. PTIN only holders get the same setup but have to follow more policies and procedures as an independent contractor representing the Zip Refund brand.
