* **Country(s)**: The country(s) in which you would like to set up a tax.
* **Flat Charge**: A flat dollar amount that will need to be paid when coming across this tax.
* **(%) Charge**: A percentage of the transaction that will need to be paid when coming across this tax.
* **Deduct**: This tells NATS when to take the biller fees out of the payouts. The different deduction options include:
  * *Never*: Calculate the fee, but never deduct it from affiliates nor your Profit/Loss
  * *After Affiliate Payout*: Affiliate gets paid out first, then fees are deducted from your profit/loss completely.
  * *From Affiliate Payout*: The affiliate payout is calculated, then the entire fee is deducted from their payout.
  * *Before Affiliate Payout*: The fee is subtracted from the total transaction amount, and the affiliate's payout is calculated from the resulting net amount. This acts as a way for the Site Owner and Affiliate to split any fees and is the most common selection. 

Once you are finished, click the "Add" button, and your tax will appear on the Taxes page.
