Pricing is a tiered subscription tied to monthly invoice volume and number of legal entities (public tiers cover up to 5,000, 20,000 and unlimited invoices/month). Onboarding includes one free test invoice. No email workflow and no SME portal. Strong multi-country format coverage (UBL, Factur-X, FatturaPA, XRechnung, PINT).

    Headquartered in Gothenburg and acquired by Thomson Reuters in 2024, Pagero is one of the only service providers accredited in every single Peppol jurisdiction worldwide.

How to Pick the Right European Peppol Provider

Four criteria drive almost every decision. Score each provider against them.

  • Country footprint. If you only trade inside the Peppol network (Belgium, Netherlands, Nordics, Germany, France, Ireland, Italy and growing), any certified AP works. If you also need Italy SDI, French PPF, Hungary NAV or Spain SII clearance, pick Pagero, Sovos or Comarch.
  • Pricing model. SMEs and bursty invoice volumes should pick pay-per-use (e-invoice.be). Predictable high volumes favour subscription or enterprise contracts.
  • Integration type. Need a portal or email? Most enterprise providers do not offer one. Need an API? Almost all do, but the SDK quality and webhook support varies. e-invoice.be ships SDKs in 5 languages with webhooks built in.
  • Support language and timezone. A Belgian or Dutch SME usually does not want to debug UBL errors with a US support desk at 2am. Local providers like e-invoice.be answer in your language and your timezone.

"Most SMEs over-buy Peppol. They sign 3-year contracts with enterprise vendors when a pay-per-use AP would cost a tenth of that. Match the provider to the volume, not the brand."

Tom Van Asbroeck, Founder at e-invoice.be

What "Continuous Connectivity" Means in 2026

Continuous connectivity is the model the EU's ViDA directive targets for 2030. Invoices flow in real time between supplier, buyer and tax authority over a structured 5-corner Peppol model (sender AP, network, receiver AP, plus a 5th corner reporting to tax authorities). In practice that means your provider must support always-on delivery, webhooks for delivery events, and country-specific reporting profiles. Among the providers above, e-invoice.be, Storecove, Basware, Pagero and Sovos all support real-time API delivery today; the rest rely more on batch.
