What is a Peppol Invoice?
Peppol (Pan-European Public Procurement OnLine) is the international network for electronic invoicing. Instead of emailing PDFs, structured invoices are exchanged via a secure network that enables automatic processing.
The Peppol Network
Peppol is an international network supported by governments in over 40 countries. Through this network, businesses can securely exchange invoices, similar to how you transfer money between banks. The recipient gets your invoice directly in their system.
Automatic Processing
A Peppol invoice isn't a PDF that someone has to manually enter. It's a structured file that is automatically imported into your customer's accounting system. This saves time, prevents typos, and ensures invoices get paid faster.
Your Peppol Address
Just like you have an email address, you also get a Peppol address. This is based on your business registration number, so customers and suppliers can send invoices to you. We handle your Peppol registration automatically — you're usually ready within 24 hours.
