utu is a travel technology company with a mission to transform the global travel experience for tourists by introducing them to a world of rewards and higher VAT and GST tax refunds, so they can get the best value out of their trips.Far more than just digitizing the process, utu re-engineers the broken tax refund industry to finally put the customer first. By integrating tax refunds with the rest of the travel ecosystem, utu bridges the worlds of refunds and rewards, and unlocks new value in the form of points from retailers, airlines, hotels, restaurants and many more. utu allows global shoppers to upsize the refunds from any refund operator across 50 countries taking part in the tax-free shopping scheme, including France, Italy, Germany, Singapore, South Korea and the UAE. Shoppers simply download the utu Tax Free app and fill in their details to receive a utu Tax Free Card. By directing their refund to their card, sums can currently be upsized by 5% in cash or 25% in Frequent Flyer Miles. Emirates Skywards members are already able to take advantage of utu upsize rewards, whilst 12 additional major airlines are set to be onboarded by the end of 2021. Over time, the reward ecosystem will expand considerably. Founded in 2016, utu is a technology company with a unique travel industry heritage, steeped in tax-free shopping domain knowledge. The company's leadership was pivotal in growing and selling the two leading refund operators to their current owners when that business model was still relevant.utu is headquartered in Singapore and has offices in France, Italy, Thailand, South Korea and India.
