Developed to make online shopping safe and easy, your e-account allows you to save contact information and shopping preferences on our secure servers to make future ordering easier by eliminating the need to re-key your shipping, billing, payment and account information each time you place an order. Your e-account also enables you to check the status of any order you place with CDW (even phone orders) and use our Saved Shopping Carts feature. Create an e-account today.

CDW has sufficient nexus (business presence) in most states and is required to collect sales/use tax on all taxable goods and services we sell.

Furthermore, businesses are required by states to self assess and pay sales/use tax on all their taxable purchases. This can be an administrative burden for many customers. CDW simplifies and reduces this tax burden by collecting and remitting sales/use tax on behalf of its customers.

If you are exempt from sales tax, please file a tax exemption form with CDW at the time of purchase. If applicable, please make sure the seller name is listed as "CDW" and the description of purchase is listed as "technology products and services". You may fax it to 847.371.3250 or e-mail.

If you have any questions, please contact your account manager or the tax department at e-mail.
