Collect sales tax

If you need to collect sales tax, turn it on and enter the rate you use. Checkout and manual orders show tax from that setting. You still file and remit with your tax authority.

Turn on sales tax

  1. 1

    Open Payments & Tax

    In the app, go to Manage → Payments & Tax.

  2. 2

    Open the Sales tax tab

    Select the Sales tax tab.

  3. 3

    Set sales tax

    Turn tax on and enter your rate. New orders use that rate.

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.

What BakeryFlow does not do

We do not look up a rate by address, and we do not file or remit tax. If you collect more than one tax (for example GST plus a provincial tax), add the rates and enter that total. Official links by state and province are on the sales tax guide.

FAQ

Does BakeryFlow choose my rate?
No. You set sales tax. Confirm the rate with your state or provincial tax authority.
Does cottage food mean I skip sales tax?
Not automatically. Cottage food rules and sales tax are different questions. Check your local authority. This is not tax advice.
