Is sales tax collected automatically?
All payments are made exclusively between the buyer and the seller. As a result, we do not automatically collect sales tax, as we are not directly involved in the transaction.
Can I charge buyers sales tax on Hip?
Yes, we provide you with the ability to define your sales tax nexuses and to specify which locations/states you need to collect sales tax in. Buyers in these locations/states will then automatically be charged sales tax at the appropriate percent, which you are responsible for remitting accordingly.
To set up your sales tax nexuses, head to the Global Settings page (Members Area > Selling > Global Settings):
Under the "Tax Type" section, select any applicable sales tax nexuses.
Please note that as a Seller, you are responsible for ensuring that you follow any applicable tax laws.
