Hi all,
Work to implement our e-invoicing solution with direct integration with the Peppol network (BIS Billing 3.0) is in progress.
We are currently in the final stages of polishing the integration and conducting rigorous testing. Given the critical importance of financial compliance, we are prioritizing stability to ensure the solution is robust upon release in Q1 2026.

Pepol integration the new european standard from 2026
From 2026 we must use pepol to send the B2B invoices to the customersWil there be an future integration planned on the roadmap of WHMCS?

I've been following this thread with growing frustration, because I'm in the same boat: I run a hosting company on WHMCS myself.
I'm a Dutch developer and I've been building WHMCS integrations for my own company for years, so I'm seriously considering solving this for all of us instead of waiting any longer. The whole point would be that you get to stay on WHMCS: no switching billing software, no re-entering invoices in an external platform.
What I have in mind for v1:
- Sends invoices and credit notes as Peppol BIS 3.0 through a certified access point
- Triggers when the invoice is issued, not when it's paid (which is what the Belgian mandate actually requires)
- Recipient lookup before sending, with email fallback and a compliance warning if the customer isn't on Peppol yet
- Status dashboard with delivery/rejection status and retries
- No separate access point account or contract needed, document bundle included
And the good news: this won't take long for us to publish.
I did look at invoro since it was mentioned earlier in this thread, and to be fair it might work for some. But a few things made me decide it's not the answer for my own company: it's an external platform rather than a WHMCS module (their site lists WHMCS as "available" but I couldn't find an actual module or any integration docs), the company is very young (their own terms still reference their launch earlier this year), and at €39/month for 150 invoices the per-invoice price gets steep once you have any volume. What I want is something that lives inside WHMCS, fires automatically on invoice issue, and doesn't depend on forwarding emails to a third platform.
So: before I start, I want to know whether it's just the handful of us in this thread or a real market. If you'd want me to take care of this for you, fill in this 1-minute form: https://forms.cloud.microsoft/e/8RhWUwr4zS
Belgian hosts especially, since you're the ones with the deadline. Happy to answer questions here or, through my email at: [email protected] or in the form.

Will they also be late to apply the price increase ?
Belgian company here. We're actively building an integration for WHMCS to be Peppol compliant via the Billit API before 2026.
Would anyone be interested if we commercialize this module for WHMCS so you can be compliant as well?

We are investigating the possibility of integrating a Peppol solution in WHMCS as an extension of our e-invoicing work: https://requests.whmcs.com/idea/add-electronic-invoicing
Implementing a Peppol solution is rather more involved than a standard e-invoice; requiring submitting invoice data to an accredited Peppol Access Point - whose service fees can be significant - and so choosing an appropriate Access Point with whom to partner is an additional consideration for us.
We will have more specifics and timelines to share in the next few months.
It should be top priority, if not ready soon, all EU business will have to find alternatives.
Maybe we can help by exploring some solutions. I came across billit.eu - according to their website, they offer a free API for sending invoices via Peppol. Do you guys have any other suggestions?
I don't think there is a real solution so far and WHMCS should have this ready a long time ago.
Billit, ING invoice manager, Doccle Pro, Lucy, Comanage, Moneybird, Dexter, .... allemaal alternatieven die geen echt alternatief zijn.
