Reviews: What People Think About Wevat Tax Refund
Billy Olympia Wa
Rating: 5/5
This app is a game changer. We travel to France once per year or so, and love shopping at both large department stores and small boutiques. Keeping track of our receipts and processing vat refunds at the airport is such a hassle. We’ve even skipped it altogether and missed out to avoid the experience.
Wevat made everything so much easier! It provided instructions on asking for receipts, was easy to follow, accepted and processed photos of receipts quickly, and was available to help when we needed it. It provides a barcode to scan at the airport’s Pablo kiosk, and processes your refund for you. No talking to an agent, no tearing our luggage apart to show our purchases, just scan and go. We’ll definitely be using Wevat again and again!

I loved the general layout of the app but they’re concealing the truth from you. 1) You can’t currently get VAT back in Euros with their app if you have a US credit card (as you can with the global blue app). You’ll have to choose between paying a percentage to get refunded to PayPal or converting to $ back to your US bank account (because it only accepts Euro bank instructions). 2) They’ll make you wait until you’ve put you’re invoices in (at which point it’s too late to use any other program) to inform you of this AND this is when they’ll tell you the 3-5 days refund is actually up to 3 months now. 3) The program still lies and says global blue requires you to mail back forms, but that ended when they rolled out their own app. Now it’s just as easy and you don’t mail anything back after getting validated at the airport kiosk.
Long story short, clearly they are hiding the fact they are making $ on forced Euro to Dollar conversions which wiped away the financial higher percentage back incentive, Global Blue has an app program which eliminates the easier process incentive, and I got my $ back from my global blue purchase 3 days after my trip while I’m still waiting a month later for WeVat to hopefully come through - when being sold the reverse would be true is why I was persuaded to use this app to begin with.
It may work for UK people I don’t know, but US citizens you will NOT save $, avoid avoid avoid!!!!

This was a LIFE SAVER when we were on our trip to France this month. Follow the directions closely and you’ll love the service. I really appreciate how quick the facture’s were approved; I had enough time to fix one before leaving the shopping center. When it came time to scan the barcode at the VAT refund space at CDG, it took 30seconds and I wasn’t fumbling with 15 packets of paper. Seamless! I will be using this service again when I’m in France later this year!
