SeyfeddinerekoHi @Seyfeddinereko, Discount vouchers issued from 1 March 2021 can only be applied to shopping carts with a value of at least USD50 (excluding shipping and tax charges). Shipping, tax and handling charges by Razer.com will apply. Existing free shipping promotions will be removed from your shopping cart once the voucher code is successfully applied. As for the tax for the redemption of Razer Silver, it will be calculated upon the order once you have redeemed your Razer Silver Points. By "redeemed", that means after you make a purchase. But look at the bright side, at least that's all you have to pay for it if you use Razer Silver.

SeyfeddinerekoAre you talking about sales tax or is there an additional fee for silver redemptions?

I feel you bro !!
The whole point of Redemption are GIFT to loyal Razer's customer so what is the point of GIFT if you're charging
us like a normal purchase??
Honest and Clarity should be the whole business objectives we are not school kids Mr Razer !!
There are no Tax implemented by any government on a GIFT item unless from Razer Gov.
Don't Bullshit A Bullshitter !!

azls73In RAZER insider, anyone can make a pointer and RAZER officials do take it to an account from anything which insiders or consumers do not like about the brand, products, services, and try work things out. Even I feel the RAZER zsilver redeem fee is ridiculous, but there aren't many gaming peripheral brands that give free items through coupon vouchers. Not like the way how RAZER does it. For pointers on how to collect zsilver fast, check out the following site https://gold.razer.com/silver/earn The point Elites are making, is to ask Insiders to control their words. Do have a read through of RAZER insider house rules, by clicking here

Insider are the Platform for Razers to identified all their Products Services and System also the Company it self
reaching to the end users market worldwide.
We are corresponding to each other exchanging views suggestion opinions whether in agreement or disagreement
to reach one goal for the greater good for both consumers and manufacturers.
Didn't it occur to your sense that all the people who are commented in Insiders they do it because they cared and want Razer to Prosper ??
Yet you guys geniuses want to dismiss me. Accusing me using a curse language.
I want a Professional and Official employees of Razer's Inc to response to me as i take this part timers
as an insults.
Thank You

azls73Your feedback is highly appreciated, if however you have a problem with taxes it should be feedback directed to your government, not to Razer. Imagine thinking Razer collects taxes for themselves, if you think that then you have no idea of how taxation works but im pretty sure if you really are in Malaysia you dont have taxes on Silver items. Correct me if im wrong, the last time I ordered something was 6 months ago so it might be different now. Also your use of the word "bullshit" was considered as a curse word, I am just letting you know. Voicing your opinion is fine, but please be civil about it. If you are mad or angry you can still display that without being vile. No one likes taxes, but this is some extra cost that Razer is collecting from you. If you are a tax payer you can get it refunded when you file your taxes, atleast this is the case where I am currently living. Might be different for you.

ThreaT209Yeah been thinking about it. Aside from shipping fee and tax fee... Are there additional fees after applying the voucher? Hmm

SeyfeddinerekoThose are likely your country's taxes not a tax on razer silver. It is unfortunate, but they don't cover the taxes.

This is crazy, at the very least be transparent about additional costs you impose
The shipping cost does not add up (way to high in general and why charge people for shipping of their GIFT) aswell as the tax is ridiculous.
I will never use razer Gold again after this. Redeemed two items so far, and both times i am left to feel scammed

0V3R_K1LLNgl was extremely frustrating reading another similar thread and the amount of replies to OP talking about "oh hey this is normal tax, it's your government or country that gets it" etc despite the OP clarifying numerous times and even attaching a screenshot. This is a NEW charge they have decided to throw on. It is not a tax. It is a charge for redeeming silver. It IS collected by Razer. It is NOT deductable. It is not a government issue. Have redeemed plenty of times with Razer Silver before and this is first time this charge has been added. Very disappointed.
Your feedback is highly appreciated, if however you have a problem with taxes it should be feedback directed to your government, not to Razer. Imagine thinking Razer collects taxes for themselves, if you think that then you have no idea of how taxation works but im pretty sure if you really are in Malaysia you dont have taxes on Silver items.

I am relatively sure that js your sales tax. Unless I am confusing the european system in a way that is incorrect.
