The easiest way to claim your VAT refund in the EU. No more paperwork. No more queueing. More refund.

Did you know that unlike duty free shopping, which is only available at airports, tax-free shopping can be done anywhere in the EU? You can shop tax-free at any store in the EU, even when they do not offer tax-free shopping cheques. The only thing needed, is cooperation from the store. Therefore, you will find a tax-free shopping guide in our app, where you can find cooperating stores. This way you can make sure you will always get your VAT back!

Ratings and reviews

The app is nice to navigate, easy to understand and the process is less of a hassle than most VAT return systems. My only complaint is regarding the information section of your account. The moment you enter to double check your info, I had to enter my info all over again and then go through the verification process again. But, all in all, a very good app, skip Global Blue and just go with these guys/girls.

The app does what it says, it refunds the VAT. You can get the payout on your credit card or PayPal for a 2€ fee, or skip the fee using bank transfer. Only issue is that it keeps the camera open at all times in the background. Refusing permissions freezes the app.

sometimes camera in the apps could not process QR readings
