Hi there!
but does that mean that the taxes are going to be different based on users address?
Correct
If that’s the case, then $15 ticket will be $15 + Some Sales Tax.
No necessarily. When you create a price you decide how the tax is computed https://stripe.com/docs/api/prices/create#create_price-tax_behavior
Also, it seems that payment intent does not support automatic tax, what do I do in that case?
That's correct, you cannot use automatic tax directly with PaymentIntents.
No necessarily. When you create a price you decide how the tax is computed
So if Spotify is selling "premium membership" for $9.99 and the price has
"tax_behavior": "inclusive",
Does that mean, that depending on the users address the business will receive $9.99 - Sales tax?
For example if user is located in UK, business will receive $7.99 for that membership?
Correct. With "tax_behavior": "inclusive", the customer will always pay the same amount ($9.99), but the business will get less depending on the tax used.
Understood, but what if you are using PaymentIntent api? are there any helper stripe library functions that calculate the taxes based on location, or paymentIntent api wouldn't really work for international transactions?
One option is to use the Orders API that works with PaymentIntents and allow to use automatix tax. More info here: https://stripe.com/docs/orders
I've seen it, but it's only available to existing beta users? is it going to be available for everyone soon?
Sorry, but we don't have insight into if/when the Orders functionality will move to a generally available state.
