How to Add Taxes to Sponsor and Exhibitor Products

An optional feature to include in the application process is the ability to assign a custom tax percentage to exhibitor and sponsor products. If applied, these tax percentages will appear during the exhibitor or sponsor application process.

When an exhibitor or sponsor goes through the application process, they will receive the associated tax along with the price of the product.

Tax percentages are applied on a per product basis, meaning setting the tax percent for sponsor products will not affect the tax percent in exhibitor products and vice versa. Additionally, different tax percentages can be applied for separate products making it possible for one product to have a tax rate while another product has a different one. 

Adding taxes for Sponsor Products 

1. From the Event Dashboard, navigate to Sponsors > Products 
2. Scroll down to Quantity and Price Details 
3. Fill out the tax percentage under the Tax Percent field

Adding taxes for Exhibitor Products

Testing the Taxes in Exhibitor or Sponsor Application 

Now that tax percentages have been set, we recommend testing them to ensure that they work. The best way to do this will be going through the application process as an exhibitor or sponsor would.

To access the exhibitor or sponsor application. 

1. From the Event Dashboard, navigate to Event Portals > Application Portals 
2. Select Sponsor Application or Exhibitor Application depending on which one is being tested 
3. Go through the application process until the Purchases step is reached 
4. Add the product with the associated tax in the cart 
5. The tax will be included next to Tax row
