VAT rates by location
Prices displayed are before VAT. The rate applied depends on where you are and your business status.
UK customers pay 20 percent VAT. If you hold a UK VAT number, file it at checkout or in /account/billing and it will print on your invoice.
EU businesses with a valid VAT number registered in VIES are not charged UK VAT. The reverse charge applies instead. Customers in the EU without a VAT number pay VAT at their country's rate.
Outside the UK and EU, no VAT is added.
Providing your VAT number
Supply your number when you pay, or update it later in /account/billing. The VIES database is checked at that moment. If it cannot confirm your number, VAT is charged and you are notified immediately. You can enter or change your number before the next transaction.
Finding your invoices
Invoices are issued by Zinn Digital® Ltd (UK) and sent by email after payment clears. Download them anytime from /account/invoices. All receipts and credit notes are filed there as PDFs.
