Funnelish currently does not natively calculate or collect taxes. However, we provide an integration with a third-party tax app to ensure taxes are calculated and reflected correctly in Shopify. Below is an overview of how Funnelish handles tax calculations and its integration with Shopify.
Tax Calculation Capabilities
Currently, the only supported app for this purpose is TaxJar which enables automated tax calculation and collection, ensuring compliance with regional tax requirements. If you use TaxJar, taxes can be calculated and displayed as a separate tax line in Shopify orders.
At the moment, Taxjar only works if selling to the US, but there are a few workarounds for Regions Without TaxJar Support
If TaxJar is not available in your region, Funnelish offers the following workarounds to manage taxes:
1. Tax-Inclusive Pricing: Add the tax amount directly into the product price. This approach ensures that taxes are accounted for, but they will not appear as a separate tax line in Shopify.
2. Hidden Tax Line Item: Add a hidden “Tax” product or line item to orders. This allows Shopify to record a tax amount, but it’s a fixed value and does not dynamically adjust based on the customer’s region.
3.Use Stripe’s built-in tax features: Stripe offers multiple ways to handle tax automatically and it has built-in tax features to help automatically calculate and collect tax. Check this article for more details: TaxJar & Stripe Tax - TaxJar
Note: These workarounds are static and do not provide dynamic tax calculations.
Limitations and Considerations
Since Funnelish integrates only with TaxJar for tax-related functionalities, no other tax apps are currently supported.
The workarounds provided are not dynamic and may not meet the needs of businesses requiring region-specific tax calculations.
We highly suggest using TaxJar to ensure that taxes are accounted for in your Shopify orders when using Funnelish.
