No GST is added to any card or calculator amount. ClockHQ’s price already includes any applicable tax. Deputy and Tanda publish prices that exclude GST, so their actual cost would be higher than shown. Clockify and Homebase tax treatment is not confirmed by their public pricing. Confirm taxes with each supplier before purchasing.
