When fees are subject to sales tax

In some US states, District is required to charge sales tax on the transaction fees charged by marketplaces we host (for example, marketplace commission). This tax is on marketplace fees, not on the items you sell.

Sales tax may apply to:

  • Marketplace commission fees

District charges sales tax on some or all of the fees above for sellers located in the following states:

  • CT, DC, HI, MD, NM, NY, OH, SD, TX, WA, WV

These locations are set by law and may change over time. Your payout details will show tax lines where this applies.
