What is InvoiceNow?
InvoiceNow lets businesses send and receive e-invoices directly between their accounting software systems via the Peppol network.
Unlike sending a PDF file or online invoice via email, the invoice is automatically sent to a buyer’s accounting system through the secure InvoiceNow e-invoicing network. And as long as both the sender and receiver are using InvoiceNow-ready software,
e-invoices can be exchanged seamlessly and almost instantly.
