Credit card processing and merchant services in Saskatoon, SK

Saskatoon licenses by location. Every business in the city is required to hold a business licence for each location, so two storefronts mean two licences, and a home-based business gets its own licence category with standards covering employees, client visits and deliveries.

For a Saskatoon restaurant, a correct receipt has more than one provincial tax on it. Meals and non-alcoholic drinks carry 6% PST, while beer and wine carry the 10% Liquor Consumption Tax instead. Set those up once on your POS terminals and every receipt after that follows the rules.

Recreation businesses need the same care. Taxable admissions have carried PST since October 1, 2022, while gym memberships and fitness classes are exempt. A climbing gym or a sports complex that sells day admissions and memberships at the same front desk should check each product against the province's admissions bulletin.

For pop-up sales at markets and events, mobile card readers and tap to pay let you take cards at the table, and Saskatchewan still expects you to collect PST on taxable merchandise there.
