### Overview
For events in the U.S. state of Wisconsin, TicketSource is required to charge the attendee sales tax on their booking. You can find information on the current sales tax percentage for Wisconsin here

By using TicketSource and agreeing to its terms of use, event organizers authorize TicketSource to collect and remit taxes on your ticket sales in States where TicketSource is legally required to do so. It remains the event organizers responsibility to understand their tax obligations.

### If you’ve been collecting taxes in Wisconsin - online sales using TicketSource payment processing
You should no longer collect and remit sales tax for online sales related to Wisconsin-based events.  TicketSource is now responsible for collecting and remitting sales tax.  Please note that you will still be responsible for any applicable sales tax on direct sales (sales not processed online through TicketSource).  Please refer to our Sales Tax Guidance for additional information.

### If you've been collecting taxes in Wisconsin - online sales through Stripe payment processing.
If you have integrated your own Stripe payment processing account, TicketSource will collect and remit the sales tax on the booking fee for your online sales related to Wisconsin-based events. You will remain responsible for any applicable sales tax on your online ticket sales (excluding the booking fee) or direct sales (sales not processed online through TicketSource or when using your own merchant services).  Please refer to our Sales Tax Guidance for additional information.

**If you are tax-exempt**
The State of Wisconsin have advised that sales tax exemption by a school, non-profit organization or similar does not extend to a marketplace provider such as TicketSource. Therefore, sales tax will be charged on your sales (in accordance with the type of payment processing as outlined above).
