[The title of this thread has been edited from the original: Double Tax]

I am a bit new to Square and I am trying to create items for an online store. When I test the checkout process the system is charging double my tax rate of 7%. I'm not sure how to go about preventing this from happening. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks

Hey @leeincincy-

Thanks for posting in the Seller Community. You should be able to edit your tax settings from your online Square Dashboard:

Visit Items and click Taxes.
Select a tax rate to edit or click Create Tax to add a new tax. Make sure to toggle Enable Tax on.
Click Save.

I hope you're able to make the adjustment to resolve this issue moving forward. Let me know if not.
