How to add your tax ID on invoices and receipts

Adding Tax Information to Stripe Invoices & Receipts

Stripe supports adding tax information via tax rates or by enabling Stripe Tax so that invoices and receipts show the correct tax amount and legal identifiers.

Note this is not legal or financial advice. Please see Stripe Documentation for the most up-to-date information on Stripe Tax.

Step-by-step: Configure Tax Info and add it to Stripe receipts and invoices

Go to Settings → Tax settings (or Billing/Invoices section) in Stripe

This is where you manage tax defaults and enable automatic tax calculation. Stripe Docs

Go to invoices

Add your Tax ID / Business Tax Information to invoices

Option 1: Scroll down and add your EIN to invoices

Option 2: Select Invoice Template settings (under Billing → Invoice Template → Manage tax information), you can specify your business’s tax identification (e.g. VAT number, EIN) so invoices and receipts include your tax ID. Stripe Support

Save and send an invoice

Once tax is configured and applied, you can finalize and send the invoice. The taxes will show up on the invoice and in the receipt. If you have anyone on a subscription already, their next invoice will have your saved info.

Apply tax rates to your invoice line items or the whole invoice

(Update 711|172)

Admins can now set both the Invoice Footer and the default Tax ID directly from Onespot Payments.

This allows schools to manage the information that appears on invoices without needing to configure it separately in Stripe.

Where to Find These Settings

Click the ⚡ Lightning Bolt (Admin Superpowers)
Select Onespot Payments
Open Invoice Settings

From here, you can update:

Invoice Footer

Add a custom message that will appear at the bottom of every invoice. Schools commonly use this area to include payment reminders, contact information, or thank-you notes.

Default Tax ID

Set your organization’s Tax ID (for example, US EIN) so it automatically appears on all invoices generated through Onespot.

After making any changes, click Save Settings to apply them.

How These Settings Appear on Invoices

The Tax ID appears in the invoice header under your organization’s address.
The Invoice Footer appears at the bottom of the invoice.

Both settings will automatically apply to invoices created through Onespot Payments.

Important Notes

Updating the Tax ID here creates a new Tax ID record on your Stripe account.
These settings can also be managed in Stripe, but configuring them in Onespot allows admins to manage invoice details in one place.
