Do I need a VAT ID number to register with readyPay and if so, where do I get it?

For our Swiss customers: readyPay is currently not available in your country. Click here to receive further information about an alternative card payment option.

If you are a ready2order customer from Germany, you must provide an active VAT ID number (USt-ID) in order to successfully complete the readyPay application. The reason for this is that our payment system partner hobex is based in Austria and therefore cross-border business transactions take place.

If you do not have an (active) VAT ID number, please contact your tax office. There you can apply for a VAT ID number or have an inactive number activated.
