Collect sales tax

If you need to collect sales tax, turn it on and enter your rate. Checkout and manual orders add tax from that setting. You still file and remit with your tax authority. Sales tax needs BakeryFlow Pro.

Set up payments and sales tax

Turn on sales tax

  1. 1

    Open Payments & Tax

    Go to Manage → Payments & Tax.

  2. 2

    Open the Sales tax tab

    Tap Sales tax. Without Pro, this opens the subscription offer instead.

  3. 3

    Set it up

    Turn on Collect sales tax and enter your Tax rate.

  4. 4

    Choose how prices work

    Pick Add tax on top or Prices include tax, then tap Save sales tax.

Add tax on top, or include it in prices

  • Add tax on top: listed prices are before tax. Checkout adds tax.
  • Prices include tax: listed prices already include tax. Checkout shows the tax portion.
  • The example under the setting shows what a customer pays on a $20.00 order.

What BakeryFlow doesn't do

We don't look up a rate by address, and we don't file or remit tax. If you collect more than one tax (like GST plus PST or QST), add them up and enter one combined rate. Official links by state and province are on the sales tax guide.

FAQ

Does BakeryFlow choose my rate?
No. You set it. Confirm the rate with your state or provincial tax authority.
Where do I see the tax I collected?
Each order shows Tax or Tax included. A drop's Overview shows Tax collected, and the Export on the Orders tab has a Tax column.
