What’s new in PMPro - AvaTax 0.1
What it does
Sales tax on memberships gets complicated once your members live in different states, provinces or countries. Each place can have its own rates and rules, and keeping track by hand leads to errors and adjustments after the fact. This add on links your Paid Memberships Pro checkout to AvaTax, which keeps an updated database of tax regulations. When a member signs up, the plugin applies the current rate based on their location, the membership level they chose and the tax rules that apply.
Because it works inside your existing Paid Memberships Pro workflow, members go through the same checkout they already know, with the exact tax amount shown before they pay. You can set how taxes apply to different membership levels, discounts and promotions. The plugin also produces tax reports that help with bookkeeping and filing. It suits small membership sites selling in one region as well as larger operations moving into new markets with changing tax obligations.
Best for
- Paid Memberships Pro sites selling memberships in several states
- Membership communities with members in multiple countries
- Site owners who want less manual sales tax work
