MailerLite is growing its client base across the United States. By law, we need to collect and remit sales taxes to comply with varying local and state laws across the country.
Not all states tax our activity as a Software as a Service (SaaS), and there are different nexus determinations across states.
Below you will find an up-to-date table with the information in what states we are subject to sales taxes.
In the event of a refund, the state and local taxes will be included in the reimbursement.

How a US sales tax is calculated
A sales tax is calculated by the addition of:
The state rate
The county rate
The city rate (if applicable)
This combination may lead to several different rates applicable within each state depending on the zip code that is provided on the billing information on the Plan and billing page.

Based on the zip code you provide, our billing platform will calculate the applicable tax rate on top of the plan price on the checkout page. The tax component (state and local tax) will be identified in a dedicated line in the invoice of the purchase.
Tax exemptions
Certain charitable, religious, scientific, or educational organizations may be exempt from the sales tax. However, not all non-profit organizations qualify for a tax exemption.
If you believe your organization should be tax-exempt, please send us the required documentation by the state to taxes@mailerlite.com and your request should be reviewed within three business days.
