Thank you ! You’re the only video that I could find about this!

@PrettyFabulousDesigns 6 лет назад

Hi Rachel - IKR! I could only find information on how to set up my table with a pretty blanket and how to arrange my products but nothing practical on how to get paid $$. LOL.

@rachelsaddler2954 6 лет назад

Pretty Fabulous Designs exactly ! Thank you again - it’s very useful info!

This is a great video! As soon as you mentioned WiFi I was like, yep, this will be a real talk kind of video. Thanks!

Hello! If I'm only planning to do like 2 craft shows a year and I'm doing it as a hobby (don't have a business license), do I need to charge sales tax when using square?

@PrettyFabulousDesigns Месяц назад

Hi Jana: Great question - the craft show hosts will know the answers on local laws and you're probably covered by their blanket business license for the show. However, you will owe taxes on any revenue you make. Whether you collect that from your customer or you pay it out of pocket, the government doesn't care. You will still owe the money so why not just charge sales tax to your customer. Either way, the tax will need to come from somewhere - just because you didn't collect it from the customer doesn't mean the government won't collect and expect it from you. Hope that helps to clarify. And good luck with your craft show! XO Lisa

I am just starting out, but I am selling products for a non-profit. It would be great to have a video to watch reference that.

@tabithablalock 2 года назад

I just started using the square app for my craft fairs for credit cards. It was easy to set up and use, but my only question, is there a way to put my raw cost in each item? That way, after an item sells, I can see how much I made off of it?

@tutsecret499 Год назад

Do I have to collect the tax?

@sherryrobinson9602 9 месяцев назад

@@tutsecret499 the best thing to do is to contact the stat you live in Sales Tax department. They will be able to help you with the information you need and how to file.

Do I need an upgraded cell phone android to use this devices the chip reader?

@PrettyFabulousDesigns Год назад

Hi Tut Secret: No - it has nothing to do with your cell phone. The card swiper that PayPal will send you will do it all for you. XO Lisa

@tutsecret499 Год назад

How does this work when applying/signup. Do I have to contact the bank. I have no clue.

@PrettyFabulousDesigns Год назад

Hey Tut Secret: You don't have to contact the bank. Just choose an option - and then you'll enter your bank info online through whatever service you select. XO Lisa

Not all states allow you to embed the sales tax in your pricing

I have Square and to get the chip reader, it does cost to buy the device. Around $70 or so.

@PrettyFabulousDesigns 6 лет назад

Thanks for adding that cost - good to know!

@KayDejaVu 6 лет назад

I wonder what platforms it works with. I sell via my own site and use paypal for payments

@dt564 4 года назад

Okay so I am really bad at this pleasr don't judge 😅 In Indiana sales tax is 7 percent. The thing I am selling is 10 dollars so what would I want to charge?

@PrettyFabulousDesigns 4 года назад

Wow - this looks like a math problem which is literally my worst subject - you should check with a sales tax expert or use Taxjar. Good luck XO Lisa

@Sewlady718 3 года назад

@@PrettyFabulousDesigns 7% of $10 is $.70. So they would charge $10.70 or round up to $11.00.

@adrianagavilanaguilera7828 2 года назад

@@Sewlady718 do we charge taxes based on the state, or city we are selling in? I'm just starting my business but I am so confused on the sales tax portion

@Sewlady718 2 года назад

@Adriana Gavilan Aguilera Both. Your state has a sales tax and usually there is a county and city tax. Your state should have a website for taxes which usually includes income taxes, sales taxes and any other applicable taxes. In New York it is the New York Franchise Tax website. I file my taxes online yearly. How often you file is based on your annual sales whether it’s monthly, quarterly or yearly. Let me know if you have any other questions.

@katiarici3622 2 года назад

First we want to find what is 7% of $10, and to do that we convert 7% to a decimal which makes it .07 and we multiply it by the $10. $10 x .07 = .7 .7 is 7% of $10. Finally add .7 to the $10 $10 + .7 = $10.7 You would charge $10.7.

Yes there is! If you have Verizon it is called a Jetpack. It basically gives you hotspot, not sure what else you need with that, but i know that exists :)
