eInvoicing — Let your business take the next step

A new way of invoicing

eInvoicing is the exchange of invoice information directly between suppliers’ and buyers’ financial systems, even if these systems are different.

With eInvoicing, businesses no longer need to generate paper-based or PDF invoices that have to be printed, posted or emailed, and buyers no longer need to manually enter these into their accounting system. It improves accuracy and security, reduces process time and speeds up payments.

NZBN Business Match

Recording the NZBN for each of your buyers ensures that your eInvoices reach them. If you also provide your NZBN to your suppliers they will be able to send you eInvoices (as long as your accounting package can accept eInvoices). The NZBN is the unique global identifier that ensures eInvoices reach the right business.

Use the free and secure NZBN Business-Match service to match your business contacts to their NZBNs and update your contacts' records held in your accounting package.
