Stripe Tax
Tax calculation bolted onto the payment stack you already run, priced as a cut of each transaction or as a flat monthly plan.
About Stripe Tax
If Stripe already processes your revenue, Stripe Tax is the option with no integration project attached — you toggle it on in the Dashboard and tax starts calculating on Checkout, Billing, Invoicing and Payment Links. That convenience is priced as a share of revenue rather than as a subscription, and the distinction between the two plans is where the real decision sits. Tax Basic charges 0.5% per transaction on no-code integrations, or a flat €0.45 per transaction through the API (which bundles ten calculation calls, with €0.04 for each additional call) — attractive at low volume and increasingly expensive as you scale, since the 0.5% never stops compounding with your growth. Tax Complete starts at €80 per month on a one-year contract and moves you to a fixed cost, adding obligation monitoring and alerts, registrations in 90+ countries, calculation across 600+ product and service types, collection in 100+ countries, and filings in 90+ countries; note that filings are executed through partners — TaxJar for the US, plus Taxually, HOST and Marosa internationally — and that registrations and filings outside the US can carry fees on top of the plan. The Tax API also works with off-Stripe payments, so a business splitting volume across processors can still consolidate its tax determination here. The real limits are strategic rather than technical: your compliance layer becomes a Stripe dependency, and a dedicated vendor will generally out-specialise it on exemption certificates and audit defence.
Pricing
- Model
- Paid
- Starting price
- 0.5% per transaction (Tax Basic, no-code); Tax Complete from €80/mo
- Notes
- Tax Basic: 0.5% per transaction on no-code integrations (Billing, Checkout, Invoicing, Payment Links), or €0.45 per transaction via the API including 10 calculation calls, then €0.04 per additional calculation API call — charged only where you are registered to collect. Tax Complete starts at €80/month on a 1-year contract. Prices are quoted in euros on the EU-served pricing page; Stripe localises pricing by region, so US buyers should confirm dollar equivalents on their own regional page. Stripe states additional fees may apply for registrations and filings outside the US, or if you exceed plan limits. Filings are delivered via partners (TaxJar in the US; Taxually, TaxJar, HOST and Marosa globally). No free tier.
