Manufacturing & Production

A leading construction and property development company in the UK had been facing a significant challenge. Their projects were often large-scale, requiring substantial upfront investment in materials and labour. The company was consistently in a VAT refund position due to these high upfront costs, but the delay in receiving these refunds was causing cash flow issues. This was affecting their ability to start new projects promptly and pay their contractors on time.

The company's Financial Director, John, knew they needed a solution. That's when he discovered Adsum and their Instant VAT Refunds service. Intrigued by the promise of receiving VAT refunds in just 60 minutes, John decided to give it a try.

The impact was immediate and transformative. With Adsum, the company started receiving their VAT refunds in just 60 minutes, a stark contrast to the usual 5-10 day waiting period. This had a profound effect on their cash flow management. They could now pay their contractors on time, reducing delays and improving relationships with their key partners.

But the benefits didn't stop there. The improved cash flow also meant that they could start new projects sooner. They no longer had to wait for VAT refunds to come in before breaking ground on a new project. This increased their operational efficiency and allowed them to take on more projects, leading to a significant increase in revenue.

Furthermore, the early VAT refunds also provided a buffer against unforeseen expenses or project overruns. This added financial stability gave them the confidence to take on larger, more ambitious projects.

John summed up the impact of Adsum's service on their business, "Adsum's Instant VAT Refunds service has been a game-changer for us. It's not just about the money - it's about the time we save and the efficiency we gain. We can now plan our projects with greater certainty, knowing that our VAT refunds will be in our account within 60 minutes. This has given us a competitive edge and has been instrumental in our growth."

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Got questions?

With Adsum, you get Instant VAT Refunds at a simple, straightforward price

Why do you need my Government Gateway?

We need your Government Gateway access to collect your VAT repayment from HMRC. It's not ideal, but it's the quickest way to keep things smooth and cost-effective. Rest assured, your login credentials are securely stored and inaccessible to others. If you need any information from the Gateway during the refund process, we're here to help.

Can I check my company's eligibility before committing?

Of course! Complete the sign-up, and our service will inform you of your eligibility. If you decide not to proceed, you can toggle our service off anytime. To qualify, your UK company must have received at least 2 full VAT refunds from HMRC, be submitting a VAT refund below £100,000, and have a clean credit history.

How do Instant VAT Refunds work?

Once you've set up your account, every VAT refund you submit will be refunded instantly. Our TaxOS will notify us of your submission, and we'll transfer the VAT refund (minus our 3% fee) to your chosen bank account within 60 minutes.

What's the difference between a normal VAT refund and an Instant VAT Refund?

Normal refunds from HMRC take 5 to 30 days. Instant VAT Refunds from Adsum arrive within 60 minutes of submitting the VAT return. We then collect the normal VAT refund from HMRC when they pay it.

What if I sign up outside business hours?

No worries! If you sign up at least 12 hours before submitting your VAT return and meet our criteria, you'll still get your Instant VAT Refund. For a guaranteed 60-minute payout, we recommend submitting your VAT return during business hours.

What if I don't want the refund from Adsum every time?

No problem! Just switch off the service in your dashboard before submitting your VAT return.

Already submitted your VAT refund?

If you've completed our sign-up process within 3 hours of submitting your VAT return, your refund may still qualify for an instant payout, provided your business and VAT refund meet the eligibility criteria.

How secure is Adsum?

Adsum is fully regulated by the FCA and is an authorised HMRC tax agent. We take security seriously and use advanced encryption to protect your data.
