Create structured invoices for eligible paid orders, with your invoice settings, sequential numbers and a 10-year archive designed around GoBD requirements. Choose which observed order sources invoice automatically and review other orders individually. Get a ZUGFeRD PDF with embedded XML, or a readable PDF and XRechnung XML for eligible public-sector orders. Unlimited costs 22 USD/month through Shopify, approximately €19 depending on the exchange rate.

Release checks use sample documents with KoSIT, Mustang and veraPDF. Supported invoice tax schemes include reverse charge, OSS standard rates and §19 Kleinunternehmer.
Your automation choices
Select the observed sources you want to invoice automatically. Other paid orders wait for review. Automatic customer email is optional; a held-order invoice has its own email choice.

Built for the deadline that's coming
Germany's domestic B2B mandate phases in issuing from 2027 for businesses above €800k prior-year turnover and 2028 for other covered businesses. Exceptions apply, including to Kleinunternehmer issuing. Check the BMF FAQ and your accountant's advice for your business. Read our compliance guides
Common questions
What is the German e-invoicing mandate?
Germany's mandate concerns domestic B2B transactions. Businesses must be able to receive e-invoices from 2025. The issuing transition ends in 2027 for businesses above 800,000 euro prior-year turnover and in 2028 for the remaining businesses covered by the mandate. Exceptions apply, including to issuing by Kleinunternehmer. A structured e-invoice such as ZUGFeRD or XRechnung is different from a plain PDF.
Does Faktwise work for B2C shops too?
Yes. Faktwise supports consumer invoices as well as EU B2B, OSS standard-rate sales, exports and the German small business scheme. Your invoice settings and order data determine the supported tax treatment. Product-specific mixed-event tax rules and changes to Shopify checkout tax are not included.
How are the invoice formats checked?
Sample documents are checked during release verification using KoSIT for XRechnung and Mustang and veraPDF for ZUGFeRD/PDF-A. Faktwise adds invoice notes for its supported tax cases. This does not replace checking your business details and tax treatment with your accountant.
Can I choose which order sources receive automatic invoices?
Yes. You can select several source groups observed in your store. With source selection active, other paid orders wait for review. You can request one invoice for an eligible held order and choose separately whether to email it. A source group may cover several marketplaces. Existing shops keep their current invoicing until they activate source selection.
What does it cost?
The free plan covers 5 invoices per month. Unlimited costs 22 USD per month through Shopify, with a 14-day free trial. Our reference price is about 19 euro; your converted charge depends on the exchange rate. There are no per-order fees.
