What is Kintsugi Mail?
Imagine having a dedicated mailbox just for your sales tax documents. That’s what Kintsugi Mail is! It provides a virtual mailbox service to help you manage all your important tax-related letters, notices, and messages in one centralized place. All mail is scanned, uploaded, and reviewed by Kintsugi. You are notified any time you need to take action.
✅ No extra fees! Kintsugi Mail is included in every paid plan at no additional cost.
The Power of Kintsugi Mail
Kintsugi Mail becomes available once you upgrade from the free plan to any of our paid plans. It gives you instant access to a streamlined system for receiving, reviewing, and responding to official tax mail without any extra charges.
Unlocking Key Features:
1. Physical Mail Address
Once setup is complete, our partner Stable provides you with a dedicated physical mailing address. This is where tax agencies and departments will send physical notices, letters, and other official tax documents.
To get started, check out this help article: Required Documents in Physical Mail Setup (What Do I Need to Setup Kintsugi Mail?)
When mail is received at this address, Stable scans each item and sends a PDF version securely to Kintsugi Mail.
2. Virtual Mail Group
Kintsugi Mail then automatically forwards the scanned tax correspondence to your Virtual Mail Group, which works like a Google Group Inbox, allowing notices to be sent to a list of email recipients.
A unique Virtual Mail Group ID is created for your account. The Virtual Mail Group acts as a distribution list, ensuring that everyone who needs access—your team, your accountant, or even just yourself—gets copies of the incoming tax notices.
To help prevent missed deadlines and ensure timely responses, we recommend adding your own email and a few key Kintsugi team email addresses to the Virtual Mail Group. This allows both you and our support team to track and respond to tax mail promptly.
