According to the National Taxation Bureau of the Northern Area, Ministry of Finance (NTBNA), it is becoming increasingly popular for consumers to use carriers to obtain cloud invoices when shopping. There are many types of carriers currently available (such as credit card, membership card, EasyCard and i-Pass, etc.). By consolidating various carriers to your mobile barcode (common carrier) and designating a bank account on the MOF E-Invoice Platform website (hereinafter referred to as “Platform”) to claim the cash awards, the system will automatically check your invoices against the winning numbers, redeem any prizes, and transfer the cash award into your designated account. You can win money just like that!
The NTBNA explains that, in order to encourage consumers to store cloud invoices through carriers, in addition to enjoying the double opportunity of general awards and cloud invoice exclusive awards, the chances of winning will be greatly increased. The cloud invoice exclusive awards have been expanded since the September-October period of 2024. In each period, there are 30 sets of the NT$1,000,000 cash awards prize, 16,000 sets of the NT$2,000 cash awards prize, 100,000 sets of the NT$800 cash awards prize, and 2,450,000 sets of the NT$500 cash awards prize, totaling NT$1.367 billion, which greatly increases the winning rate of cloud invoices. The Uniform Invoice Lottery Redemption APP (hereinafter referred to as “redemption APP”) is an indispensable helper for assisting in organizing invoices and claiming prizes in daily life. After completing the consolidation of different types of carriers to your mobile barcode, you can then sit back and allow the APP to automatically check the stored invoices against the prize-winning numbers, notify you when you win, and remit cash awards directly into your designated account. You can also scan or manually deposit paper invoices (electronic uniform invoice certification copy, traditional uniform invoice) into the redemption APP to facilitate recording of consumption details and assist in automatic prize matching.
The NTBNA would like to remind the public to consolidate various carriers to their mobile barcode and claim the prizes via the Platform or redemption APP. Prizewinners can redeem the general awards of uniform-invoice prize and also enjoy the qualification of cloud invoice exclusive awards. Furthermore, the process saves you time from retaining the invoice receipts and prevents winners from losing out on their prizes by failing to claim the prize before the prescribed deadline. It is also a completely paperless process from the obtainment of cloud invoices to claiming the prizes. Together, let’s embrace ESG practices, protect the environment, and care for our planet!
