Customizing WooCommerce tax & shipping

I was wondering if you could help me with a WooCommerce question. They make it difficult to get email support for the general WooCommerce platform…

I have a client with 3 types of products: Gift cards, Juice cleanses and a thermal tote bag.

The gift card needs to have a flat shipping fee (US mail) of $2, but with no sales tax.

The Juice cleanses need a 10.25% sales tax but with no shipping options (shipping not available, yet). I would need to prevent/hide the shipping option for this category.

The thermal tote needs neither shipping nor sales tax at this time.

Is there a way to get all of this, either through the included WooCommerce options or with the help of a plugin?

    Hi, iKevin!

    I just installed WooCommerce, I've never actually used it before. I think I figured out how to make this work for you.

    Since Juice Cleanses are the only product which is taxed, set the tax rate for 10.25%.

    On the product pages for the gift cards and the tote, set tax to none, like my screenshot.

    For the shipping for the card, you'll need to set a flat rate shipping under WooCommerce>Settings>Shipping>Flat Rate (another screenshot is attached.)

    Does this help?
