More About Liberty Tax Service - Surfside Beach
The Liberty Tax mission is to be trusted locally and respected nationally as the best choice for professional tax services.
The people we help during tax season are not just our customers, they’re our neighbors.

That’s where we come in – we're committed to building long-term relationships and establishing ourselves as trusted tax experts for life.
History
On September 1, 1997, Canadian tax franchisor U&R Tax Depot was acquired. In 1998, the company opened five offices in the U.S. and became Liberty Tax Service®. In 2021, Liberty Tax Service was acquired by NextPoint Financial, an all-inclusive marketplace for financial services empowering hardworking and underserved consumers and small businesses to get to the “NextPoint” in their financial futures.
Since 1997, Liberty Tax has helped millions of Americans get their largest possible refund or their money back.*
Liberty Tax has 2,500+ retail branches and 12,000+ tax professionals across the United States and Canada. We offer FREE tax consultations, in-office and online tax prep, loans, and a variety of other services. Our offices average a 4.5 star rating on Google and 87% of all our reviews are positive.
Known for the total support we provide our franchisees, our tax return preparation franchise is consistently recognized as a leader among all franchises, not just personal income tax-based businesses. We’ve been ranked as one of the top franchises on Entrepreneur magazine’s annual Franchise 500 list every year since 1998, including a Best of the Best award in 2016. We’re also listed in Bond’s Top 100 Franchises. Accounting Today named Liberty Tax® to its Top Tax Firms list in 2016 and 2017. We’re the #1-ranked non-food multi-unit franchise by Multi-Unit Franchisee magazine, and we’ve been awarded a top spot among franchises by Black Enterprise, Poder/Hispanic Enterprise, and Military Times Edge.
