THE BRIEF

Disrupt the tax refund industry through digitisation
VAT refunds in the UK have traditionally been a 100% paper-based process. This is time-consuming, complicated and - from a consumer satisfaction perspective - incredibly frustrating. Our challenge, in partnership with HMRC was to digitise the entire customer flow from spend to refund.          

THE CONCEPT

Digitise the VAT refund process for tourism in the UK

VAT refunds in the UK have traditionally been a 100% paper-based process. This is time-consuming, complicated and - from a consumer satisfaction perspective - frustrating and old fashioned

With engagement with HRMC, we worked to provide a 90% digital solution for all VAT refunds processed. The ultimate aim of this project was to eliminate paper entirely, moving from paper receipts to electronic e-receipts.
