Geo Zones for sales tax purposes<\/h1>\n

To collect sale tax on orders from customers located in your state you will first need to create a Geo Zone.<\/p>\n

The Geo Zone below is used to make sure all orders shipped to Florida will be charged Sales Tax. See Sales Tax<\/a> for how this will be applied.<\/p>\n

\"Geo<\/p>\n

Add a Geo Zone<\/h1>\n
    \n
  1. Click the Green button in the upper right corner with the plus sign.<\/li>\n
  2. Give the Geo Zone a name<\/strong>. If this is for Sales Tax we recommend “Your State Sales Tax” replace your state with your actual state name.<\/li>\n
  3. Enter the name you just added again for description<\/strong>.<\/li>\n
  4. Click the yellow button with the plus sign in a circle<\/li>\n
  5. Choose the country from the drop down<\/li>\n
  6. Choose your state<\/li>\n
  7. Click the save button<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    Geo Zones can be added or removed as needed. If you decide to include sale tax in our product pricing you would not need to setup a Geo Zone for sale tax.<\/p>\n

    Geo Zones can be used for other purposes too. For example maybe you want to charge more for shipping for Western States. You can add each state to a single Geo Zone and then create a shipping rate\/method for that Geo Zone forcing any orders placed from those states to pay the higher shipping rate.<\/p>\n
