We are excited to announce a change in our sales tax remittance process in collaboration with the California Department of Tax and Fee Administration (CDTFA).
Effective January 1, 2024, Snackpass will no longer be a marketplace facilitator in the state of California. This means that we will cease to remit sales tax to the CDTFA on your behalf. Instead, we will remit the sales tax directly to you, and you will have full control over your store’s sales taxes as well as the filing and remittance of the appropriate amounts to the CDTFA.
Background
Until now, Snackpass has functioned as a marketplace facilitator in California, where we have been required to handle the tax remittance and filing obligations on behalf of our restaurant partners.
However, to streamline accounting for you, we have diligently collaborated with the CDTFA to eliminate our marketplace facilitator status and restore control over sales tax matters back to you.
Key Points
Transition Date: January 1st, 2024
Direct Remittance: Sales tax will be remitted directly to you by Snackpass. You will be responsible for ensuring timely and accurate filing with the CDTFA.
Enhanced Control: You will soon have the ability to set your own sales tax on the store and item level! Please look out for a separate email announcing this new feature.
