Thomson Reuters e-invoicing network and Peppol access point for global compliance mandates.
Pagero, now part of Thomson Reuters, operates one of the largest e-invoicing networks: a single connection through which companies send and receive invoices in whatever format and channel each country mandates — Peppol, national clearance platforms, or direct B2B exchange. As governments worldwide phase in mandatory e-invoicing and continuous transaction controls, Pagero is the layer that keeps a multinational seller compliant without integrating separately with every national system. It plugs into ERPs and billing platforms and converts their output into compliant, validated documents.

Its differentiation is network reach and regulatory tracking: one integration covering dozens of country mandates, maintained by a vendor whose job is watching every new clearance regime — now backed by Thomson Reuters and paired with its tax products. Building per-country connections in-house is the alternative, and it ages badly as mandates multiply.
Because governments are moving from post-hoc tax reporting to real-time invoice clearance to close VAT gaps. Many jurisdictions already require B2B invoices to flow through approved formats or platforms, with more phasing in each year — non-compliant invoices can be legally invalid and unpayable.
Billing systems generate invoices; most do not maintain certified connections to every national clearance network and format. The common architecture keeps your billing platform as-is and routes its output through a network like Pagero for validation, conversion, and delivery.
