Apply for Tax-Exempt Status on your Subscription

Apply for Tax-Exempt Status on Your Simplebooklet Subscription


Organizations that qualify for tax exemption—such as registered nonprofits, educational institutions, and government agencies— can apply to have tax removed from their Simplebooklet subscription.


Simplebooklet uses Paddle as its payment processor. Once your exemption is approved, future charges will be tax-free, and taxes on previous invoices can be refunded retroactively after verification.


Available on all paid plans.


Before You Start


To access your billing and subscription details:


  1. Open your Dashboard


  1. Click Account in the left-hand toolbar


  1. Select Your Plan


This page shows your subscription information, receipts, and subscription ID (used for verification).



If You Are a US-Based Nonprofit


US-based nonprofits must submit official documentation for verification. This process is handled manually by Paddle.


How to Apply


  1. Prepare your tax-exempt certificate

Your documentation must be valid, current, and clearly show your nonprofit status.


  1. Use the following vendor information on your exemption form


Simplebooklet’s billing is handled by Paddle. Use the following vendor details:


Paddle.com Inc.

3811 Ditmars Blvd., #1071

Astoria, NY 11105

United States


  1. Submit your documentation


Email your tax-exempt certificate to [help@paddle.com]() and include:


  • Your Simplebooklet account email


  • Your subscription ID (found on the Your Plan page)


Including the subscription ID helps Paddle apply the exemption to the correct account.


  1. Verification & retroactive refund


Once approved:


  • All future invoices will be tax-exempt


  • Previously charged taxes will be refunded retroactively after Paddle completes verification


You’ll receive confirmation once this process is complete.



If You Are Outside the United States


Most non-US organizations do not submit exemption certificates.


Instead, you’ll add your Tax ID / VAT number directly to your billing details.


How to Apply


  1. From Account → Your Plan, click Receipts


  1. This opens the Billing Details page


  1. Fill in Update Your Billing Details, including:


  • Company name


  • Address


  • Tax ID or VAT number


  1. Click Save


Your tax information will apply to future invoices and appear on your receipts.



Important Notes


  • Tax exemption verification is handled by Paddle


  • Retroactive tax refunds are supported once approval is complete


  • Previously issued invoices cannot be edited, but refunds may still be issued


  • Subscription IDs are unique per account


  • You’re responsible for updating your billing details if your tax status changes
