Sales tax on your Monologue bill
Understand sales tax on direct Monologue subscriptions, update your billing address, and request a tax exemption.
This guide covers subscriptions billed directly by Monologue. If Apple or Every bills you, manage billing through that purchase source. See Account and billing for help finding the right place.
Why is there sales tax on my bill?
We collect sales tax on subscriptions in US states where we’re required to. If sales tax appears at your renewal, it’s based on your billing address.
The October 21, 2026 rollout covers New York and Maryland. Ohio customers won’t see sales tax as part of this rollout.
Did my subscription price change?
No. Your subscription price stays the same. Sales tax is added as a separate line item on top, and we pass it through to your state. We don’t keep any of it.
How is the amount calculated?
The amount depends on your billing address and the applicable state and local tax rates. You’ll see the exact amount as its own line item on your invoice and receipt.
Prices listed on our site exclude sales tax. If tax applies to you, it’s added at billing based on your address.
When will I see it?
For subscriptions included in this rollout, tax applies to bills issued on or after October 21, 2026. Monthly and annual subscribers see it at their next renewal. Nothing changes mid-cycle, and this rollout doesn’t add tax to past payments.
I’m outside the US. Does this affect me?
Not as part of this rollout. It covers US sales tax only.
My organization is tax-exempt. What do I do?
Send your exemption certificate to support@monologue.to and include your Monologue account email. We’ll review the certificate and mark your account exempt if it qualifies.
If you were already charged tax after your exemption applies, we’ll return that tax as a credit on your account, applied to your next bill.
My billing address is wrong or outdated
For a direct Monologue subscription, open Settings → Plan & Billing in the Mac app, then select Manage subscription to open the billing portal. Under billing information, select Update information, edit your address, and save.
If your subscription is managed by Apple, Every, or a team admin, follow the instructions in Account and billing instead.
Tax is calculated from your billing address, so keeping it current helps make sure you’re charged correctly.
