Another PayPal Add-on Question Please

Does the Add-On have the ability to deal with goods and services tax? Can't see anything but perhaps I'm missing something.

Thanks
Richard

Thanks Carl. I haven't for the life of me figured out how to set up tax options at the PayPal end for the GF/PayPal kind of set-up. While one can create invoice templates within PayPal, I can't see how they can work with GF.

However, I have thought of a potential work-around. Where someone needs to charge goods and services or value added tax for a product or service, and only a single product/service at a fixed price is being sold through the form, then it seems one could use two "Product" fields. The first product field specifies the unit price for the good/service, and the second product field is used for the tax component. You then add a "Total" field to calculate the overall, tax inclusive, price. That total price is what PayPal then charges. I've not yet figured out how to get my "goods and service tax, tax number" into the PayPal receipt, but I can probably manage that through a creative use of the form fields or perhaps the PayPal backend.

What do you think? This solution won't work where a good or service is being sold in multiple jurisdictions, because in one's home jurisdiction the goods and services tax will be chargeable/payable whereas selling overseas will probably be zero-rated, but one could probably get around that by using duplicate forms, one for the local jurisdiction (with the tax field) and one for overseas (without).

What do you think?

Cheers

I've taken a look but, weirdly, there's no option like that for me in my account. I wonder if it's a jurisdictional thing...

Hey Richard, you've found a solution to see the taxes?
Thanks.

Yes, I have a Business account. I only configured the taxes and they don't appear in the final process of buy ...
