Sales-tax back for travellers

Your travel receipts have money in them.

Rebateful reads the sales tax on what you buy abroad, keeps it in a fund for that country, and lets you spend it at the airport duty free on your way home.

The hidden extra

Every lunch, jacket and souvenir you buy abroad has sales tax in the price.

Most travellers never see it again. With Rebateful, it comes back to you as money to spend on the way home.

How it works

Three steps. No paperwork.

  1. 1Scan your receipts

    Point your camera at a receipt. The app reads the date, time, card digits, tax and total on its own, then snaps the photo once they hold still.

    Scan your receipts
  2. 2Collect it in a country fund

    Check the numbers, slide to approve, and the tax lands in that country’s fund straight away. Canada in dollars, Mexico in pesos.

  3. 3Spend it at duty free

    At the airport, show your code at the till. What you buy comes out of your fund, and you pay anything over that with your card.

Features

Built for the way you actually travel.

Your fund carries over between visits. Each receipt’s tax can be spent for 3 months, and we always use the oldest first, so less of it runs out.

Security & privacy

No account. No password. Just your phone.

We built Rebateful to know as little about you as possible. Your funds are linked to a secure ID kept in your phone’s keychain, never to an email address.

  • Only 4 card digits

    We match the last 4 digits on your receipts to check they’re yours. Nothing more.

  • Location while it’s open

    Used to pick the right fund and spot the airport. Never in the background.

  • Photos on your terms

    Keep receipt photos until your trip ends, or choose never to upload them.

  • A tamper-proof record

    Every approved receipt is saved to a secure ledger, and each claim is checked so it can’t be made twice.

  • A fresh code every minute

    Your till code is single-use and renews every 60 seconds, so a screenshot is no use to anyone else.

  • Gone when you say so

    Delete your funds and data from Settings whenever you like.

Partners

Spend it where you’re already shopping.

Your fund works at partner duty-free shops at the airport. While you wait, the app shows their deals and offers near your gate, so your tax goes a little further.

Run a duty-free or airport store?

Travellers arrive with money ready to spend in your shop. One scan at your till and it’s done.
