Tax Reservation Types

Add a Tax Rate to a Reservation Type

Written by Ashley Owens

INTRODUCTION

Feature Summary: Apply a tax rate to a reservation type so CourtReserve adds or includes tax on bookings of that type, based on how the tax rate was configured in Settings > Billing Settings > Taxes.

Use Cases:

  • Apply tax to court reservations, party room rentals, or any other reservation type.

  • Ensure tax is calculated automatically at checkout instead of manually adding it to each charge.

  3. Locate the reservation type you want to update and click Edit.

ADMIN PERSPECTIVE

On the Reservation Types table, the Tax column shows the tax rate assigned to each reservation type.

When booking on behalf of a player, CourtReserve calculates the tax for each player based on the reservation type's assigned tax rate and displays it in the Tax column of the booking screen.

For example: a Party Room Reservation with an $80.00 cost and a 5% tax rate shows $4.00 in the Tax column, for a total due of $84.00.

USER PERSPECTIVE

On the member portal, CourtReserve displays the tax as a separate line item during checkout, alongside the Subtotal and Total Due.
