The Tax & Fees feature in Groovio, located under Account > Tax & Fees, allows you to manage additional taxes and fees that apply to bookings in your studio. This setting is distinct from Retail Tax, which is managed separately under Retail > Retail Tax.
Adding Taxes and Fees
In this view, which resembles the Retail Tax layout, you can add and customize taxes and fees as needed for your studio’s booking transactions. Simply enter the details for each tax or fee, including the name and rate, to ensure accurate pricing for bookings.
This feature helps streamline tax and fee management, ensuring that your studio’s booking transactions comply with applicable tax regulations and include any necessary additional fees.
Tax-Inclusive Pricing
By default, tax is added on top of your listed prices at checkout. If you'd prefer your listed prices to already include tax, go to Account > Studio Profile, scroll down to the toggle settings, and turn on Tax included in prices.
With this enabled, the prices you already have will show with the tax component included, and students see the correct breakdown of prices at checkout. Make sure you've set up your correct tax rates under Account > Tax & Fees before turning this on. A separate Retail tax included in prices toggle is available for retail products.
Charging Tax Per Item
You can also choose whether tax applies to each individual item you sell. From the Manage Studio section, whenever you set up a class, package, membership, service, or retail item, you can choose to charge tax on that particular item or not. This lets you keep tax on some offerings while leaving others tax-free.
