Keeping Checkout Totals Accurate Without Slowing Down Sales

When processing in-person or mobile payments, calculating taxes and discounts manually can slow down checkout and increase the chance of mistakes.

The POS system allows you to apply pre-configured taxes automatically and adjust discounts in real time during checkout.

Without a structured setup, totals may vary between transactions, leading to inconsistencies and potential customer confusion.

This guide will walk you through how taxes and discounts work in the POS so your checkout stays fast, accurate, and consistent.

To begin, review how taxes are created in the web app before using them in the mobile POS.

Before You Start (Web App)

Taxes are created in the web app first, then linked to products so the mobile POS can apply them automatically at checkout.

Open the web app and go to Payments → Settings.
Create the tax rates your store needs (you can create more than one).
Those taxes will appear in the mobile Product builder for linking.

Follow along: Set your taxes once in the web app, then link them to products so checkout stays fast and consistent.

Step 1: Link Taxes to Products (Mobile App)

Open the BizStackPro mobile app and select your subaccount.
Tap the hamburger menu → Products.
Create a new product or edit an existing product.
In the Taxes dropdown, select one or more taxes to link to the product.
Tap Save.

Why this matters: Linked taxes apply automatically whenever the product is added to the cart—no manual math at checkout.

Step 2: Checkout & Apply a Discount

Add items from the Product Catalog to the cart.
On the checkout screen, tap Discount to open the slider.
Adjust the slider to apply a percentage discount to the total.
Review items, taxes, discount, and final total.
Tap Complete Sale.

Pro tip: Apply the discount after products are in the cart so you can confirm taxes and totals before finishing the sale.

Benefits

Automated tax application: Linked taxes apply instantly at checkout.
Fast discounts: Adjust a percentage discount in seconds with the slider.
Fewer errors: Consistent totals reduce manual mistakes and refunds.
Smoother checkout: Great for pop-ups, events, or in-person service add-ons.

Pro Tips

Create taxes first: Taxes must be created in the web app before they can be linked in mobile.
Multiple taxes are allowed: Link more than one tax to the same product when needed.
Double-check totals: Review the cart before completing the sale to avoid surprises.

Note: Location-based tax selection is planned for future updates; today, taxes are applied based on what you link to products.

Want faster checkouts with fewer mistakes?

Link taxes once, apply discounts in seconds, and keep checkout consistent—even when you’re selling on the go.
