Does not work

I tried testing Chanel website and their bags and convert to Japanese yen, and none of my selected bags was successfully found and converted to Japanese yen.

Response from developer

Hi Vivi123321, Thanks for trying VATVIP and I'm so sorry for the rough experience. Chanel's site can be tricky for our AI to read prices from and I'm actively working on improving coverage for Chanel and other luxury sites, including Japanese yen conversion. If you're willing to try again in the next few days, please DM me at hello@vatvip.com and I'll personally make sure it works for you. — Allie, VATVIP founder

Useful but limited

I am planning a trip to Paris and found this app to help me plan how much designer bags will cost over there and calculate the VAT refund and so far it’s very useful and I love the design and practicality of the app. However you’re limited to only 3 searches and have to wait for it to reset which brings my rating for it way down. Please allow unlimited searches!
