have been using taxjar.com with... ok results so far - they seem to only provide a sandbox/playground for 'pro' accounts ("call for pricing" - ugh).

You can sign up for a free trial with TaxJar right away without calling a sales rep, no CC required. Sandbox API environment is included for all plans, but marketed toward Plus plans. Once you log in, generate prod / sandbox keys from the account page.

Nope. I've logged in. Registered. I'm a paying customer, using it in production, and there's no visible way to generate a sandbox key, except 'go to plus'.

From their docs: https://developers.taxjar.com/api/reference/#sandbox-environ...

* Sandbox Environment

TaxJar provides a sandbox environment for automated testing and development on all TaxJar Plus plans. After generating a sandbox API token, point your API client to the sandbox environment...

There is no sandbox API available without 'plus'. Perhaps you had an earlier version and are grandfathered in?

Yeah I've never used a service that made me call or email and never will
