OBA Click and Drop Prices

I currently use codes UNG and UNH for sending letters and large letters on my Royal Mail OBA. I send mostly large letters, around 50 to 80 a day.
I'm thinking about signing up for the Click & Drop service to hopefully save on the cost of labels and I understand that I would also get delivery confirmation on the large letters. I've looked all over the RM website but for the life of me I can't find how much they charge OBA account holders for first and second class large letters on Click and Drop.
My UNG and UNG codes don't attract VAT which suits me as I stay under the threshold but I think I'd have to use different codes with Click and Drop.
Do the Click and Drop prices attract VAT?

There’s lots of different schemes for an OBA click and drop and it is difficult to find any prices online. I did find it under RM price lists 2020 but that download is on my PC so I can’t attach it at the moment. I use Rm48 (which requires VAT to be added) can’t remember the code and from memory for a large letter 2nd class it works out at 92 p

Thanks Soolin. I only pay 76p at the moment for 2nd class LL so that would be to expensive to justify changing I think. I'll contact my account manager when things get a bit better. At the moment the 'Contact Us' page is asking people to only contact if it's an emergency.

Click and Drop is basically a label creation interface that links to OBA and automatically generates a sales order, you should pay the same prices you currently do for the same codes, or in this case the BPL alternative which is effectively the same thing.
That's my understanding, which hopefully isn't too confusing!In the game of chess you can never let your adversary see your pieces1 -
Yes, that's correct. I don't get any delivery confirmation with my current codes. It's encouraging that you believe that I could use my current codes on C&D so I hopefully can still benefit from the free labels providing of course that the RM would supply them. Thank you.

How much are people paying with online accounts. I tend to buy stamps and get over 25% discount though items are probably slightly more likely to go missing than using 2d barcodes.
BTw im small seller and doubt i would ever go over VAT threshold0
