As a Xolo customer and registered autónomo, you can make any type of purchases for expenses that you like using your own personal funds. But if you want to reduce your VAT obligation (and even get a refund) or your income tax (IRPF) that will eventually be paid to Hacienda, only the following categories of expenses will be accepted, provided that:
It is directly and exclusively related to your professional activity as an autónomo
It is fully documented with corresponding invoice/receipt/proof documents. In other words, the invoice must contain all the mandatory formal data, including NIF, name, date, content of purchase, and breakdown of VAT and tax base
