I want to sell gift certificates which are not subject to sales tax at the time of sale, only when they are used. But I also want to sell coffee cups, which are taxable at time of sale. How can I tell paypal not to calculate sales tax for certain items? I asked on the paypal forum and I got a reply to add the following code to my “manually” coded buy now button, but its not manually coded. Can I accomplish this somehow?
Here’s my response from paypal:
Assuming you are manually coding your item button code for this Gift Certificate, you would need to use the tax override variable with a value = 0.
For example, the line of code would look similar to this for a manually coded item button:
<input type=”hidden” name=”tax” value=”0.00″
Is there a way to accomplish this using this simple shopping cart plugin?
WP eStore doesn’t allow you to do this but looks like a good feature… I will add it in.
I was using the simple paypal shopping cart plugin. Are you talking about adding it to that or the eStore plugin? In any case, I will update to which ever one has the ability. The simple paypal shopping cart plugin is great (and easy to use), I’m sure the estore would be good too. Can you let me know which one has the ability and when? Thanks! This has been the best customer support ever!
Hi Amin, did you add this capability yet? I desperately need this fix!
Let me how the fix here works:
Problem with regional sales tax on taxable and non-taxable products
If that works good I will just add it in the production code.
