Sorry, I'm not familiar with using Stripe yet. Is it possible to set a shipping fee depending on the customer's location?

Can this be (or will be) integrated with Stripe Connect?

So that a StripeLink buyer who is being charges can also later receive revenue ?

Hate to be a party pooper, but what about Sales Tax handling?

I'm also interested in this, and someone recently shared this with me: https://stripe.com/newsroom/news/taxjar

Apparently Stripe's acquisition of TaxJar is meant to expand their offerings in sales tax compliance.

From the article:

As the latest addition to Stripe’s revenue platform, TaxJar will help businesses automate tasks such as:

- Providing accurate sales tax rates at checkout, tied to the exact street address of the customer.

- Automatically submitting tax returns to local jurisdictions and remitting the sales tax collected.

- Producing local jurisdiction reports to show sales and sales tax collected—not only for each state, but for relevant counties, cities, and other special jurisdictions.

- Evaluating a company’s products and intelligently suggesting the right product tax code.

Pleased to see this feature. The one feedback I'd give is that it's hard for a user to know they can adjust the quantity on mobile. You have to click the "Details" link in the top right, and it's not really obvious to a user this is where they should go do this. (i.e. they may well think that they can't update the quantity).

Thank you for this feedback, James. Totally agreed. We'll be making significant improvements to this flow on mobile coming soon. Drop me a note at jackerman@stripe.com if you'd like to give us feedback on an early prototype!
