How it works

What is Peppol invoicing?

Peppol is an international network for exchanging structured electronic invoices, securely and automatically, between businesses and public bodies. The invoice no longer goes by e-mail: it goes straight from one software package to another.

Before
Software→PDF→E-mail→Re-keying

Lost invoices, data entry errors, disputes.

Your software→Peppol→Customer’s software

The invoice arrives directly, readable by the recipient’s software.
