Video Games Tax Relief allows UK game developers can receive a Corporation Tax reduction or rebate worth up to 20% of the core production costs of a game.
Many developers are either unaware of their eligibility for the Video Games Tax Relief scheme or are not yet claiming due to the complex guidelines and time-consuming nature of making tax relief claims.
As Tax Relief Specialists, TBAT aim to help as many businesses as possible realise that making a claim is hugely beneficial and to ensure the claim is to its fullest potential; while Barclays can provide expert financial advice and advanced funds against your future tax relief claims.

I have been leading on the proposition within the Barclays UK coverage team for the last 3 years. Barclays has a rich history in the creative industries. I wanted to make sure the video games sectors had the same level of attention. We have really been able to show our commitment to the industry, from creating a tax credit loan product to joining forces with the key trading bodies to provide non-banking support.
