## What is Woonivers?

Are you a tourist looking to get a quick and easy VAT refund on your purchases in Spain or the EU? Woonivers makes it simple!

Key Benefits:
- Instant VAT refund: Receive your money directly on your smartphone once the DER (Export and Refund Document) is validated upon exiting Spain or the EU.
- 100% digital and paperless solution: The entire process is digital—no physical forms or tedious paperwork.
- Authorized Tax-Free operator: We’ve been an official operator since 2019, recognized by the Spanish Tax Agency.
- 365-day customer support: Assistance is always available when you need it.
- Personalized app: Access your data and choose your preferred refund method quickly and intuitively.
- Save time: Manage your Tax-Free at the store and airport without queues or delays.

Who can use it?
- Residents outside the EU (including non-EU tax zones like Ceuta, Melilla, and the Canary Islands).
- Exportable goods for personal use or as gifts. Not valid for accommodation, restaurants, leisure, or business purchases.
- Goods must leave the country in their original condition within 3 months of purchase.

Applicable VAT rates:
- 21% (Standard rate): Most products.
- 10% (Reduced rate): Food and optics (prescription glasses and sunglasses).
- 4% (Super-reduced rate): Essential goods, medicines, newspapers, and books.

Instructions for travelers
To comply with Spanish Tax Free regulations, you must prove you reside outside the European Union with your passport or other valid proof of residence at the time of purchase. When leaving the EU, you must carry the unused purchased goods with you, no later than three months after the purchase date.

Some categories of goods are not eligible for a VAT refund (such as accommodation, restaurants, or leisure activities). Before leaving the EU, you may be asked to show the purchased goods at the customs office at the port or airport—so have them ready.

On the day you leave the EU, before your departure, locate the VAT refund validation machine at the port or airport (in Spain, it’s called the "DIVA machine") and scan your refund request code. You may be asked to show the goods at the Customs office to confirm they are unused and in your possession—have them ready to speed up the process.

Download the app and enjoy your VAT refund quickly, safely, and hassle-free!

### 1/5 — No sirve

*2025-12-03, version 3.2.4*

El código QR me llegó varias horas después de hacer la compra y haber escaneado el ticket, así que no lo tuve disponible antes de pasar la Aduana y por tanto no obtuve la devolución del Tax free.

### 5/5 — Después de un inicio flojito por fin bien

*2025-10-18, version 3.2.4*

He batallado con errores, con problemas en la app. Pero quiero decir que de momento todo bien y han resulto a mi favor los problemas y he recuperado el dinero q ya contaba como perdido

### 1/5 — Un desastre total

*2025-03-09, version 3.2.1*

No es una app ni fiable ni estable. Cuando no falla la validación, falla el reembolso. El servicio técnico te hace enviar un email con screenshots y nunca te devuelven respuesta al problema

### 1/5 — No serveix de res

*2024-12-21, version 2.24.0*

Totalment inútil per a recuperar cap impost. 
Millor canviar de botiga per a totes aquelles que et donen el Tax FREE per Woonivers, ja que despres t’ho deneguen i no reps res a canvi després d’omplir moltes dades. Ho sento molt per Esclat i la seva qualitat però estàn mal assessorats  i no tenen  el Tax FREE Gracies a aquesta tifa d’app.

### 1/5 — Great in theory

*2024-09-18, version 2.24.0*

The app worked the first 3 or 4 times I used it, but then it stopped allowing me to scan receipts or providing the QR can to scan at the border. This is very inconvenient for someone who frequently shops in a different country and is eligible for a VAT refund.

### 1/5 — No funciona

*2024-08-31, version 2.24.0*

No hay manera de que funcione. No carga cuando quiero escanear mi documento

### 1/5 — Don’t bother

*2024-04-02, version 2.20.0*

Instructions non existent and doesn’t work

### 1/5 — Don’t work

*2022-10-19, version 2.19.0*

I’m trying to enter, but it doesn’t work. 
After the sign the account, the App stop.

### 1/5 — App is broken

*2022-10-01, version 2.19.0*

The app doesn’t work. 
I can not go further than the login page.
So bad!

### 1/5 — Unresponsive

*2022-09-29, version 2.19.0*

The backend of the app is a completely mess. And UX? Cmon I get no feedback after entering my password. 

Directly uninstalled. I prefer to handle the tax free queue.
