Using online payment systems to avoid paying taxes is both illegal and unlikely to succeed. Online payment systems are generally designed to track payments, so there is a good chance any efforts you make to evade taxes will be detected. It's better to develop an honest strategy for dealing with your growing tax burden than taking illicit actions that can result in serious consequences.

Online payment systems can help businesses save money by reducing their tax burden. Many payments platforms allow businesses to set up an account for free, and often no associated fee for making payments. For online sales that involve a third-party payment processor, the transaction may never appear on the company's books, which would help avoid any applicable tax implications and keep costs low. Additionally, some platform-agnostic services will allow multi-store operations to establish global accounts with favorable pricing structures, further eliminating associated fees associated with each sale or transaction across multiple markets. Finally, many jurisdictions are introducing digital currencies like Bitcoin or Ethereum that do not require businesses or customers to disclose personally identifiable information – helping to maintain privacy and even further circumventing taxation.
