Smartbills

Best for

Governments that need the citizen side of a fiscalization program: delivering receipts, letting people verify them and reporting participation.

Where it's stronger

  • Covers the citizen side of a mandate (delivery, verification and participation), which usually goes unbuilt.
  • The same receipt carries on into expenses, tax categories and the accounting entry.
  • Merchants see a return on an integration they were required to do.
  • Participation is reported without retaining any purchase history.

fiskaly

Best for

Point-of-sale vendors and merchants required to sign transactions and report them to a tax authority.

Where it's stronger

  • Actual fiscalization (signing, archiving and reporting), none of which Smartbills does.
  • Country-by-country coverage kept current as rules change, which is a large ongoing commitment.
  • A channel built for point-of-sale vendors, with SDKs and no hardware to install.
  • Legal compliance in a European market is fiskaly's job, and Smartbills doesn't try to do it.

None of this needs a big-bang cutover. Most teams run both tools for one cycle and compare capture rates before switching anyone off.

  1. It isn't either/or

    Fiscalization and delivery to citizens are separate obligations, and most programs need both.

  2. Use the mandated format

    Take in the record the mandate already defines instead of inventing a second format.

  3. Deliver to the wallet

    Send the mandated receipt to citizens and let them verify it themselves.

  4. Report participation

    Measure the program's reach without collecting purchase histories along the way.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

What people ask us before they sign up.

No. Smartbills doesn't sign transactions for tax authorities; a provider such as fiskaly does that, and Smartbills delivers the resulting receipt to the citizen.

Yes, and most fiscalization programs are meant to work that way, with one provider signing and reporting while the other delivers the receipt and handles verification.

Buyers evaluating a national receipt program run into both names and reasonably assume the two overlap more than they do.
