SAN FRANCISCO, Feb. 29, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- The Marygold & Co. subsidiary of global holding firm The Marygold Companies, Inc.

Marygold & Co.'s commitment to innovation for their clients was the driver behind the decision to incorporate tax filing into the Marygold & Co app. As the company's app moves closer to becoming a one-stop-shop for a client's financial spending, managing, and investing needs, adding taxes was a logical next step.

The fully integrated solution will allow clients to upload tax files, and based on these uploads, it will intelligently skip questions to avoid wasted time answering questions which are answered on uploaded forms. The filing product covers a variety of common tax solutions, and that on average, users only spent 40 minutes filing their taxes in 2023 using their service.
