Your GST invoice matches Shopify to the cent
Tax invoices and credit notes for GST-registered New Zealand Shopify stores. Discounts, exports, donations and partial refunds, printed exactly as Shopify charged them.
Built and running for GST-registered New Zealand stores. Shopify's App Store review comes next: leave your email and we will tell you when you can install it.
Close enough is not good enough
We set up a New Zealand test store and put real orders through Shopify. On each of them, one of the obvious ways to work out GST gives a different answer from what Shopify actually charged. An invoice that is one cent out does not reconcile with your Shopify reports.
Two of the same item
2 × $24.95. Shopify charged $6.51 GST. Worked out per item, it comes to $6.50.
A small price, three times
Three stickers at $1.50 plus a $9.95 item. Shopify's GST is $1.89. From the order total it is $1.88. Item by item it is $1.90.
A discount on the whole order
10% off a $949.95 board and a $24.95 wax. Shopify's line still reads $949.95, but GST was charged on $854.95. Printed side by side, they do not add up.
Shipping to Australia
Shopify records no GST line at all, not even 0%. It states the zero rate rather than leaving a blank.
A donation in the cart
Shopify attaches "GST 15%: $0.00" to it. Printed as it is, that looks like a wrong rate. It shows the line as not taxable instead.
Refunding one item
Refund 1 of 3 stickers and Shopify returns $0.19 GST. The formula says $0.20. Its credit notes use the amount Shopify actually refunded.
Figures from our own test store, orders #1001 to #1005, 26 September 2026. Prices include GST at 15%.
How it works
Read-only. It reads your orders and never changes them.
Shopify's own GST figures, line by line. No recalculating, so nothing drifts by a cent.
A tax invoice for every order and a credit note for every refund, with your GST number on them.
One price
US$19 a month
One plan, every feature included.
No per-order charges.
Nothing locked behind a higher tier.
For GST-registered stores only. In New Zealand you must register once your turnover reaches $60,000 in 12 months. If you are not registered, this is not for you yet.
