Wolters Kluwer Introduces CCH Axcess Marketplace

Wolters Kluwer Tax & Accounting has announced the launch of CCH Axcess Marketplace to help firms find solutions that integrate with their CCH Axcess data to accelerate innovation, enable higher efficiency, and enhance their client service. A new developer portal is also available for application developers and technology integrators so they can accelerate their use of the CCH Axcess open APIs already available to them through an open integration platform.

“When we first launched the CCH Axcess expert solution, we built it on an open integration platform so firms could leverage common client data across other applications and systems,” said Cathy Rowe, CPA, CA and Vice President of Product Management, US Professional Market, at Wolters Kluwer Tax & Accounting North America. “Building stronger partnerships with technology integrators provides our customers with more options and opportunities to automate their processes and improve efficiency and productivity.”

Firms already using award-winning CCH Axcess solutions gain access to a dedicated website where they can find third-party integrations that leverage the data and services in their own client databases and CCH Axcess solutions so they can expand the value of their technology investment. By leveraging this Marketplace they will benefit from advanced integrations, whether they are developing these integrations themselves or implementing a third-party solution from a Wolters Kluwer technology partner.

The new developer portal will make it easier for developers and integrators to find, acquire, and leverage CCH Axcess APIs to create automations and technology integrations to help tax & accounting firms provide higher levels of service for their clients. Because client data is stored in the CCH Axcess common client database, APIs can populate and leverage the data to automate workflows. The portal is easy to navigate with API code ready to use and constantly maintained, offering third-party developers different pricing options and APIs that scale to the needs of even the largest firms.

The partner program offers third-party developers and technology integrators three levels of access to CCH Axcess APIs with levels of service and support matching their specific needs. The entry-level Licensed Consultant tier is targeted at those integrators that want to try the API data for testing purposes or consultants who need access to CCH Axcess to build custom integrations. The Licensed Integrator Partner tier provides technology integrators with the right to license and resell products based on API data along with marketing and training support from Wolters Kluwer. The Software Partner tier offers integrators an even higher level of API and technology support.
