Peppol e-invoicing
E-invoices from your Shopify orders, straight into your customers’ accounting
Peppol is the network businesses use to send invoices from one accounting system to another. Foliant registers your company on it, builds a structured e-invoice from each business order and sends it, as well as the PDF invoice you already give your customers.
For stores in Belgium, the Netherlands, Denmark, Germany, France, Norway and Sweden.
- 1
Register your company
Enter your VAT number and enterprise number in Foliant. It registers your company on Peppol, and you verify it once.
- 2
Let business customers ask for one
Add Foliant’s e-invoice blocks to your checkout and order status page, so business customers can give their VAT number, and their Peppol address if they know it.
- 3
Foliant sends each e-invoice
Paid business orders go out over Peppol automatically, with the same number as your PDF invoice when numbering is on.
Built into your order flow
One invoice number
With invoice numbering on, the e-invoice carries the same sequential number as your PDF invoice.
Reverse charge handled
When no VAT was charged to a business in another EU country that gave a VAT number, the e-invoice marks it as reverse charge.
Status you can see
Invoice history on the Peppol page shows each e-invoice’s status, with Retry for any that failed, and Shopify Flow can react when one is sent or fails.
What it costs
Peppol e-invoicing is an add-on, $10 a month. Send invoices through the Peppol network. $0.10 per e-invoice on top of the monthly price. On every plan. See pricing.
