Essential Updates: After your Showcase Page goes live, certain payment configurations will be locked to ensure consistency with your participants transactions. These include:

1. Alternate Payment Methods: Such as check, ACH, money order, etc.

2. Check Initial Deposit & Balance

3. Credit Card Payment Gateway Selected: Stripe, Authorize.net, PayPal

4. Credit Card Processing Fee and Sales Tax and Application Fees

5. Currency

You will still have the flexibility to make some changes. These include:

1. Alternate Payment Terms

2. Payment Gateway Keys

3. Invoicing Customization

Finalizing these settings before going live ensures a seamless setup and prevents any transactional disruptions as you start receiving orders.

A frequent concern with online payments is how to properly account for sales tax. Fortunately, you can turn on state sales tax for your event with just a checkbox!

1. Go to Edit Showcase for your event.

2. Proceed to the Payment Settings tab.

3. Select the box named "Enable Sales Tax".

4. Select either Exhibitor Location or Event Location from the dropdown to indicate the reason for the additional fee.

You're done! Now when exhibitors checkout for your event their location will be used to automatically determine the appropriate state tax for them to pay which will be included in their order total.
