Zero Lost B2B Orders: Architecting a Sub-400ms Shopify Tax-Exemption Bridge on Google Cloud Run & HubSpot

In high-volume B2B and school/nonprofit e-commerce, tax-exemption friction kills conversion rates. If a tax-exempt buyer is charged sales tax at checkout—or forced to wait 48 hours for manual accounting approval—cart abandonment spikes.
