WooCommerce Tax Toggle 1.3.6

WooCommerce Tax Toggle (also known as Tax Switcher) is a specialized tool for stores that serve both retail (B2C) and wholesale/business (B2B) customers.1

Since B2B customers often care about the price excluding tax while retail customers want to see the final inclusive price, this tool allows the user to switch between both views instantly.2

Core Functionality

Customer Choice: Instead of forcing one price display site-wide, you provide a button or switch (the "Toggle") that lets the customer decide.3

Dynamic Updating: When toggled, the product prices across the entire shop update via AJAX (without a page refresh), showing either the tax-inclusive or tax-exclusive amount.4

Sticky Preference: The plugin usually saves the user's choice (often via a cookie), so the prices stay consistent as they browse different pages.5

Cart & Checkout Integration: Many versions of this tool will also update the cart totals and the "Tax" line item to match the selected view.6

Placement: Most of these provide a shortcode like [wootax] or [tax-switch] that you can drop into your Header, Sidebar, or Menu.9

Why use a toggle instead of "Role-Based" pricing?

Role-based pricing (showing different prices to logged-in "Wholesale" users) is great, but it requires the user to log in first. A Tax Toggle is better for guest users who are just browsing and want to know the "business price" immediately.
