Electronic invoicing (or eInvoicing) is the new way you exchange invoices with other businesses through your software. Learn about the benefits of eInvoicing and how to get started.

Are you tired of chasing invoices, correcting invoice errors and avoiding email scams? Is this impacting your business cashflow?

eInvoicing is a faster, safer way to exchange digital invoices. It will save you time and money.

What is eInvoicing?

eInvoicing (or electronic invoicing) is the new way to digitally exchange invoices through your software. eI nvoices are not PDF invoices that need to be printed, posted or emailed.

eInvoicing allows you to send and receive invoices digitally with other businesses such as your suppliers, contractors or government. It does not apply to business to consumer transactions.

How eInvoicing works

What makes eInvoicing possible is a common standard and safe and secure network that allows invoice data to be exchanged between different software or systems. Peppol is a common standard in Australia (and many other countries).

To start eInvoicing, your software needs to be connected to the Peppol network where eInvoices are delivered securely by Australian Taxation Office (ATO) approved service providers. The ATO administers the network but can’t access or view your invoices.

Many small business accounting software providers already offer eInvoicing options. It doesn't matter which software you and your business partners use to invoice, as long as you're both connected to the Peppol network.
