eConnect does what it is supposed to do. It can be that simple.
We really appreciate eConnect's personal approach. You feel like you know the team and they know you.
eConnect communicates wonderfully with our suppliers, approachable and professional. You truly feel they are a partner.
eConnect demonstrably operates according to recognised standards and certifications, including ISO 27001, NEN 7510, ISAE 3402 Type II, Peppol Certified Access Point and DICO. In addition, eConnect has repeatedly been recognised as an FD Gazelle.
E-invoicing is the digital exchange of invoice data in a structured format such as UBL or XML. Unlike a PDF or paper invoice, the data is sent in a machine-readable form, so it can be processed directly and accurately in accounting software.
The impact is very concrete. Organisations that switch to e-invoicing reduce their error rate, shorten payment terms and save hours of manual data entry. Provincie Noord-Brabant reduced its average payment term from 22 to 8 days after switching to e-invoicing via eConnect. Peinemann processes more than 50.000 incoming invoices per year with one employee thanks to full automation.
In Europe, the obligation to invoice electronically is growing. The European Commission is rolling out the ViDA directive (VAT in the Digital Age) to make e-invoicing mandatory across all EU member states, with country mandates already live in Germany, Belgium, France, Italy and Romania. In the Netherlands, e-invoicing to the government is already mandatory under the NLCIUS standard, and B2B obligations are expected to follow.
By starting with e-invoicing now, you prepare your organisation for this legislation while immediately benefiting from faster processing, fewer errors and better visibility of your invoice flows.
eConnect offers an all-in-one platform for sending, receiving, processing and posting e-invoices. While many providers only cover part of the chain, eConnect combines all steps in one solution: from the free Invoice Portal for small organisations to the enterprise-grade PSB API for software vendors and large organisations.
What customers value most is the combination of technology and personal approach. The Kamer van Koophandel calls eConnect "professional and approachable". Universiteit Utrecht appreciated that eConnect acted quickly and provided clarity on impact and costs. Veiligheidsregio Limburg-Noord emphasises the personal contact: "You feel like they know us."
In addition, eConnect has a unique market position. As co-founder of the Dutch Peppol Authority and with approximately 30% of all Dutch Peppol registrations, eConnect is the largest Peppol player in the Netherlands. Around 40% of all Dutch Peppol transactions run through the eConnect network. That scale translates into reliability, expertise and continuous innovation.
Organisations also choose eConnect for its broad coverage: not just e-invoices via Peppol, but also PDF conversion via Scan & Recognise, multichannel delivery to Peppol and other procurement networks and proven supplier onboarding via WeConnect. One platform for the entire invoice flow, regardless of format or channel.
For invoicing to the Dutch government, e-invoicing is already mandatory. Government organisations must be able to receive and process e-invoices according to the NLCIUS standard, the Dutch implementation of the European Peppol BIS Billing norm. More and more government organisations now exclusively accept e-invoices.
For B2B invoicing, there is currently no legal obligation in the Netherlands. However, this is set to change. The European Commission is working on the ViDA directive (VAT in the Digital Age), which will make e-invoicing mandatory for all B2B transactions in the EU. Several European countries have already set concrete dates: Germany has phased the obligation in since January 2025, Belgium followed on 1 January 2026, and France, Italy, Poland and Romania have their own timelines.
The EY ViDA report (January 2026) shows that 37% of freelancers in the Netherlands still do their bookkeeping in Excel and 65 to 67% of SMEs do not use structured invoicing software. The expected ViDA obligation makes the urgency for this group concrete.
Organisations that already use e-invoicing will not need to rush their migration when the obligation comes into effect. Moreover, they already benefit from faster payment, fewer errors and lower processing costs. eConnect ensures your invoices always comply with the applicable standard, regardless of how regulations change.
Peppol is an open, international network for the secure exchange of business documents such as e-invoices and purchase orders. It works similarly to an email network: each organisation has a unique Peppol address and can exchange documents via certified Access Points with any other participant, regardless of software or country.
The strength of Peppol lies in standardisation and security. Every sender is verified via End User Identification, preventing ghost invoices and fraud. Data is sent in a structured format, ensuring it arrives accurately in the recipient's accounting software. No manual entry, no typos.
In the Netherlands, Peppol is the standard for e-invoicing to the government, and usage is growing rapidly in the commercial market. The European Commission promotes Peppol as the open network for e-invoicing and e-procurement across Europe. More and more countries are making Peppol mandatory or favouring it in their regulations.
eConnect is co-founder of the Dutch Peppol Authority and board member at OpenPeppol. With approximately 30% of all Dutch Peppol registrations and 40% of transactions, eConnect is the largest Peppol Access Point in the Netherlands. Organisations that connect to Peppol via eConnect benefit from that scale, experience and direct involvement in standard development.
That depends on your situation, but it can be surprisingly fast. For sending e-invoices via the free Invoice Portal, you only need an account. You can send your first invoice via Peppol within minutes.
For organisations that want to integrate e-invoicing into their existing software, the lead time is shorter than often expected. eConnect has standard integrations for many common accounting and ERP packages. The one-time connection is guided by a dedicated delivery team. After contract signing, a Remote Starter session of approximately two hours is scheduled, during which the Peppol registration and initial configuration are completed.
For larger organisations with more complex requirements, implementation proceeds in phases. Universiteit Utrecht opted for a phased approach: first quick Peppol compliance, then outgoing invoices, and finally a sustainable integration. Gemeente Nijmegen received the first e-invoice within two days of the connection.
The eConnect delivery team guides the entire process, from initial configuration to full deployment. The approach is designed to achieve quick results and then expand step by step.
Yes. eConnect integrates with a wide range of accounting, ERP and financial software. After a one-time connection, you work entirely from your own software package without needing to switch to a separate portal. Invoices are automatically sent and received via the eConnect platform in the background.
For standard software packages, ready-made integrations are available. For custom solutions, eConnect offers the PSB REST API, a comprehensive interface that allows software vendors and IT departments to build a direct connection. The API is used by dozens of software partners, from specialised accounting packages to large ERP environments.
Software vendors can also deploy the eConnect platform as a white-label solution. This means their customers use e-invoicing under the software vendor's own name and branding, while eConnect's technology does the work. Wflow, a software partner, chose eConnect for the quality of the API: "We found it to be one of the best among tested providers."

Processing takes place within the EU/EEA and eConnect's ISMS is covered by, among others, ISO 27001 and NEN 7510 for the SaaS service; in addition, there are annual penetration tests and ISAE 3402 Type 2 reporting for demonstrable control. The PSB runs on Microsoft Azure (Netherlands and Ireland), the IDR on Google Cloud (Netherlands and Western Europe) and the legacy platform on AWS Ireland; the cloud binding is documented per product, so data residency remains transparent.
For Peppol transport, fixed network requirements such as AS4 and PKI apply; on top of that, organisation-wide measures apply such as OAuth2 on APIs, logging with correlation tokens and periodic access reviews. Telephone support and pincode belong to SLA subscriptions; basic questions go via email and the support portal. More detail about certificates and pentests can be found in the quality and security documentation.
Not necessarily: the starting point is structured e-invoicing (UBL/XML) via Peppol or other channels, but practice remains hybrid for as long as suppliers still send PDFs. eConnect converts PDFs and photos where needed into a validated e-invoice via the Intelligent Document Recogniser and then routes it into your process, so you do not have to run two parallel administrations.
For outgoing invoices, the platform can automatically choose Peppol if the recipient is known on the network, and otherwise for example email fallback with a PDF/XML deeplink, depending on your multichannel settings. That way you keep working compliantly without forcing every supplier to a specific format on day one. Deep dive on the product page Invoice processing.
On the end-user platform you pay per processed document via a credit model, with a bonus tier on higher top-ups, while manual sending via the portal can be free within the rate rules. The document price includes all status messages, evidence files and CTC reporting messages around the same invoice, so you do not pay separately for every technical follow-up message. Most competitors charge per message, which means a single invoice can quickly cost three to four times the transaction price; with eConnect that overhead disappears.
For enterprise and partner trajectories there is, alongside the platform, a PSB model with annual commitment bundles and separate connector add-ons for networks such as Coupa or Tungsten. Be explicit in quotes about which model applies. For current amounts and packages see Pricing.
Yes, in principle: Peppol is an open network without vendor lock-in, so you switch Access Point or SMP provider while keeping the same interoperability model. For technical migrations between SMPs, the PSB uses a fixed pattern with a migration key in the Peppol SML, so the transfer happens in a controlled way without trading partners having to re-register you.
The exact steps depend on your current contract and which identifiers (party ID, KVK number, OIN) you want to retain; enterprise trajectories are planned in phases to limit lead time and risk. Start with a substantive conversation via Schedule a meeting.
Yes: the platform model supports environments with multiple organisations per account; larger customers use this for holdings and subsidiaries, with separate document flows per legal entity. For network registration, additional entities beyond the basic agreement can be billed as a separate line; relevant if you want to use multiple legal-entity numbers in Peppol.
Combine this with multi-party scenarios, for example one email channel with automatic administration detection, where your contract allows. That way you work from one central environment with separation at organisation level. Deep dive on Pricing for the entity model.
Via [email protected] and the support portal at support.econnect.eu you can submit a ticket 24/7; processing happens on business days. Telephone support requires an SLA subscription with a pincode from My environment; without an SLA you use the free ticket system.
Response times are only contractually defined for customers with a Bronze, Silver or Gold SLA; customers without an SLA have no guaranteed response time. For integration issues, escalation runs from Customer Support to Techsupport and, if needed, Development. See the overview at Contact.
