Set [sales tax](https://docs.gethoneycart.com/live-examples/miscellaneous/sales-tax) at the city, county or municipality level using zip codes:

* Enter the zip codes of the area that needs its own sales tax
* Sales tax is calculated at checkout based on the State & Zip Code for the order
* Show clients an explanation of how the sales tax was calculated (i.e `7.875% sales tax includes: State tax 6.875%, City tax 0.5% & County tax 0.5%.`)
