vAT for start-up entrepreneurs: VAT exemption for low turnover

I recently started my online shop (registration began in January 2023) and did not opt for the VAT exemption for low turnover at that time. Now I would like to do so, as turnover excl. VAT is/will be less than £25,000. How does this work in practice from now on? I have already been selling products via my website for a few months, with vAT included.

Question 1: My product costs 59 euro incl. VAT on the webshop – when I switch to VAT exemption for low turnover, the price will be 59 euro and there will be no VAT. So if someone wants an invoice, it will state 0% VAT. Correct?

Question 2: How does this work for my B2B customers from now on? They usually pay the purchase price multiplied by 2.5 (vAT included). How should I calculate this when I am not charging 21%?

Are there any other things I need to consider when switching to VAT exemption for low turnover?

Question 1: Correct, 0% vAT.

Question 2: Your price, excluding VAT from before, is now your regular selling price (with 0% vAT).

Excluding VAT is for a business customer identical to purchasing an exempted from VAT item with 0% vAT.

Thanks!! Perhaps you can also help me with the next question: how do I enter a daily receipt with a discount (Black Friday) in Dexxter? I suppose I have to enter the temporary price, but then you don't have a summary of what you sold without and with a discount?
