SPOILER: JETBUILT IS NOTHING LIKE DISNEYLAND But in this one tiny way, we do share a very critical value: We believe that bolting on feature after feature is not always in the best interest to us or to our users long-term. We take a very careful approach analyzing what can and should be done inside […]

TAX INCLUDED ON LINE ITEMS Here in the U.S. we present a “lower than actual” price, only to add Sales Tax right at the end. It goes with our culture I suppose. For you, the refined countries, you include tax from the outset. You can now easily do that in Jetbuilt. In the Designer, click […]
