Taxes

Article Topics: NATS Admin, Billers

NATS can account for different taxes based on country and region. You can also configure whether or not you want to deduct these taxes from your affiliate's payout. This is important, as setting correct taxes will ensure an accurate Profit & Loss Report in the Reporting section.

Tax Rates

The Tax Rate page displays general information about each created tax rate including:

• Country(s): The country(s) in which you would like to set up a tax.

• Flat Charge: A flat dollar amount that must be paid when coming across this tax.

• (%) Charge: A percentage of the transaction that must be paid when coming across this tax.

• Deduct: This tells NATS when to remove the biller fees from the payouts. The different deduction options include:

Deductions

When setting up a Join Options, the amounts set under the Purchase Details field will include the taxes that you have set in the Billers Admin.

For example, setting up a $100 join option with a 10% sales tax displays the full $100 amount of the join option and is what the customer is paying. Since the sales tax is set to 10%, the $100 value reflects the $90 transaction amount plus the $10 tax amount.

NATS allows you to determine when the flat charge or % charge of your tax rate is deducted from Affiliate Payout. These options include:

• Never: Calculate the fee, but never deduct it from affiliates nor your Profit/Loss

• After Affiliate Payout: The affiliate gets paid out first, and 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 remaining net amount.
