The differences are highlighted in the table below:
| Europe | N. America |
Tax type | VAT | Tax |
Displayed prices in the app | Include VAT | Exclude Tax |
In-app displayed cost during the transaction | Include VAT | Exclude Tax |

Displayed cost in the receipt | Shows the total (including VAT) and the VAT value | Shows the total (including Tax) and the Tax value |
Please note: With this new feature, Wevo helps operators define VAT/Tax rates in the system. The operator is solely responsible for setting the rates properly, verifying the results, reporting tax data to the relevant authorities, and making tax payments accurately and on time.
Wevo holds no responsibility for such activities.
