If I am not mistaken Proz is adding 16% of (German) VAT to the nominal price of its membership, because one of their employees has registered for VAT in Germany and will pay this VAT to the local VAT-authorities.
Correct me if I am wrong, but a Proz-member can also pay a part of his/her Platinum membership with Browniz. If I pay half (is this possible) with Browniz and the rest in euros then my platinum membership should cost me 60 +9.6 euro (69.5 euro) and a few thousand Browniz???

Yes, but you will have to remember to pay an extra 16% BrowniZ to the tax authorities if you are in Germany.

You can, of course, offset these BrowniZ against any BrowniZ taxes you have to pay. I presume there's a box for this on the Vorsteueranmeldungsformular.

VAT charged based on country of buyer Dec 23, 2003

Williamson,

VAT is charged to EU residents based on the country they live in. German VAT is charged only to German members without a valid VAT number. Since you live in the U.K., you would be charged the United Kingdom's 17.5% VAT if you don't have a VAT number.

Platinum membership renewal with a BrowniZ discount costs 70.00 $/Eur + 4000 BrowniZ points. 17.5% U.K. VAT will add 12.25, if you don't have a VAT number, and transaction fees vary from 0 to 5.00, depending on

How do you pay in Browniz? Dec 24, 2003

Hi everyone,

Could anyone tell me how you can pay for your Platinum renewal (or half of it) in Browniz?? I didn't realise you could do that, and seeing as I need to renew my membership in a couple of days I thought I might as well use up some of my Browniz points. I would appreciate your help.

Thanks and happy holidays to all
Federica

Selection on the Upgrade page Dec 25, 2003

Hi Federica,
Could anyone tell me how you can pay for your Platinum renewal (or half of it) in Browniz??

On the Platinum page you have a selection of payment options, including partial payment using BrowniZ. Obviously, you only have access to that option if (i) you're logged in and (ii) your BrowniZ balance is sufficient.

HTH, Ralf
