im amazed how ppl still waste money in this shitty game
MurderInc at 22:23:03 on 24/03:
Yeah, pretty much this.
There's been a few changes to VAT laws in the EU that went into effect in 2015, specifically for online transactions. This is most likely related to that.
Donations, in the legal sense, usually require some kind of not-for-profit status, which wouldn't apply to Omerta. VAT has to be charged for everything else, aside from a small list of exceptions which don't happen to include increased click limits or ingame money.
If you have ever dealt with bookkeeping for a company, you'll know that VAT is a tax that companies merely collect and then forward to the tax authorities, they don't get to keep it. The VAT rate in the UK is 20%, so for every DC sold at € 2.99, Omerta collects € 0.60 VAT which has to be paid to the tax authorities.

While I'd like to believe that the crew is making shit up to rip us off, there is some truth to their story. I don't think the donation codes we buy can be marked as actual donations. It's a product, and they're selling it with the sole purpose of making money. Which makes it turnover and it should be taxed.
The mission of Omerta Ltd nowadays is to make money and anyone claiming that they're using their donation code income to do noble things is liar. The reason they never got looked into by tax authorities is probably because it's only a small company, but it makes perfect sense that they're being forced to charge VAT for donation codes.
What's weird about all of this is why they aren't charging VAT for other donating methods, would be nice to get a more detailed explanation about that.

dunno how true this actually is.
There is an online platform, I can't remember it's name, where you can "sell" downloads for free and ask for a tip/donation. They take the view that VAT does not apply to tips/gratuities. It seems like it's a bit of an avoidance scheme but he reality is, if the customer really doesn't have to give the tip, isn't coerced into doing so and isn't even given a rcommended price, then it really is outside the scope of VAT.

Yea that's basically it. I don't know much about VAT regarding online transactions but i do know you need a very good excuse as to why you're not charging it, even when it comes to "donations". I still think it's weird they only raised the paypal prices though, but there's some VAT exemptions when it comes to foreign countries, so that probably explains it.

All the reason I can think of, is that the other methods, are already vat inclusive, that is why we may have got the 500 bullets with each paypal one, and they got an interesting tax audit.

Special rules applied
Only families with rank 5 and higher are taken into consideration for this rule to apply
Top killer, top ranker and top buster are not affected by this rule
This rule applies for winning family, don of winning family and vouchers for family members
So BF fams don't count aslong as their famrank remains below rank 5.

im amazed how ppl still waste money in this shitty game
I'm amazed how people still spend money on cigs and drugs, I am also amazed how people believe that there is a man who lives in the sky and last but not least dopes who say something is shitty, but still need to come here everyday to remind us how sad and shitty we are.
Thanks for that o/
