A: On January 1st, 2021, Cantaloupe will begin collecting and remitting sales or use tax for all products and services for which no exclusion or exemption certificate is received.
A: Sales or use tax is usually a pass-through tax. This means customers (in some cases business owners are the customers), not suppliers, pay the sales or use tax. However, suppliers must collect, deposit, and remit any taxable products or services purchased by the customer/business owner. Customers purchasing products are responsible for paying the sales or use tax.
A: Taxability of products and services purchased directly from USAT will vary from state to state. Examples of Cantaloupe products and services include: ePort cashless devices/kits, parts, monthly service fees, processing fees, rental fees, terminal fees, telemetry fees, software licensing fees, etc. Cantaloupe products or services do not include individual products/merchandise the customer is selling in its machines or locations. The operator is responsible for collecting and remitting sales or use tax on the sale of those goods.
NOTE: Taxes are based on your local and state laws, only those applicable goods and services listed in your state/county laws will qualify as taxable.
A:Sales or use taxes will be charged on Cantaloupe products or services monthly. Based on how the customer is billed, the customer will see the tax charge displayed either directly on their invoice, and/or it will be displayed in connection with and added directly to the customer’s EFT payment.
