Hi, the automatic tax rate will be based on the customer's billing address. Apple/ Google pay will only work when shipping information is collected.

Thanks @scenic pecan - the service we're charging for is not a product we're shipping, but rather an in-house service.

#

We're using this payment page rather than a POS becuase we're doing a pop-up event.

#

Therefore, we want the tax to be fixed to the location of the pop-up, not the customer's home address

Can you confirm it you're using Payment Link ot Checkout?

#

These are different so I want to make sure that we are on the same page

Payment link

You should be able to, add the tax: https://stripe.com/docs/tax/paymentlinks and not use the automatic tax hash, https://stripe.com/docs/api/payment_links/payment_links/create#create_payment_link-automatic_tax

This is what I get

#

You'd want to follow the guidelines here, https://stripe.com/docs/tax/paymentlinks and disable the automatic tax on the Dashboard first. Then you'd need to register the tax.

#

Right but when you register the tax, it's asking for billing address from customers in order to calculate the tax

From trying to reproduce on my end, https://dashboard.stripe.com/test/settings/tax General-Tangible goods needs the address. This tax category is not appropriate for stand alone transportation charges that are not associated with the sale of the goods being delivered.

What service do you recommend?

#

General service?

#

We are not able to advise on Tax as we are not experts here.

shadow shale Oct 26, 2022, 7:00 PM

#

yeah no worries, I'll add tattoo for now

#

same thing asking for billing address

#

I can't seem to figure out how to just show a tax charge without asking for billing information. We want a fixed rate 😢

#

I'mm testing this on my end, thank you for your patience.

#

Thank you for looking into this @scenic pecan

I don't think this is supported with payment links. Using fixed tax rates is supported if you're creating your Checkout sessions directly:
https://stripe.com/docs/payments/checkout/taxes?tax-calculation=tax-rates#fixed-tax-rates

#

https://stripe.com/docs/no-code/payment-links

Payment Links work with Stripe Tax to calculate and collect tax on your payments. Stripe Tax is a paid product that automatically calculates the tax on your transactions without the need to define the rates and rules. Fees only apply after you’ve added at least one location where you’re registered to calculate and remit tax.

#

Payment Links use Stripe tax and its automatic driven by customer location

#

If you want to use this fixed tax rate, you're going to need to create your checkout sessions and supply that tax rate in the creation request

#

I was afraid of that 😢 thank you both for looking into this.

For my particular "Pop Up" event use case where we have to collect taxes for the origin location, use checkout sessions instead?

dusk roost Oct 26, 2022, 7:24 PM

#

Yes, if theres a physical location that allows you to know this fixed tax rate for all customers, that makes sense
