Sales tax at checkout

One rate, applied automatically — what the tax rate covers and what it deliberately doesn't.

Updated July 4, 2026

Your Sales tax rate lives in the Operations area of Settings. Set it once to your local combined rate and every order calculates tax automatically.

  • What's taxed — the food subtotal plus the delivery fee.
  • What isn't — tips are never taxed, and discounts come off before tax is calculated.
  • Precision — the field takes up to four decimal places, so rates like 8.25% land exactly.
Heads up: KitchenRush applies the rate you enter — it doesn't look up your jurisdiction's rules. Confirm your local rate (and whether your locality taxes delivery fees differently) with your accountant, especially after rate changes.
