How much is sales tax for me?
Sales tax is calculated based on applicable state and local tax rates for your billing address.
Will sales tax apply to my Summit Subscription renewal?
Yes, if your billing address is in a taxed state—even if tax wasn’t originally applied when you first subscribed, it will be included on renewals going forward. If you're part of a registered non-profit, see below for tax-exempt information.
I work for a non-profit company, do I have to pay sales tax?
Tax may be waived for non-profit organizations located in taxed states. To process your purchase as tax-exempt, you must:
-
Pay using an organization-issued method (check, PO, or company credit card)
-
Submit a valid tax-exempt certificate signed by an authorized representative
