E-Invoicing Explained

E-invoicing is a digital method of invoicing where all invoice data is transferred electronically — without printing, scanning or emailing. The invoice is created, sent, received, processed and archived automatically in a structured format.

In Shine, e-invoicing is included at no extra cost, and your customers do not pay anything to receive e-invoices.

Shine uses Basware to route e-invoices to the correct recipients. Please note that not all customers can receive e-invoices, so it’s important to confirm their preferred delivery method.
 

Reasons to send e-invoices

E-invoices offer several benefits:

• Faster processing — invoices go directly into the customer’s system
• Fewer delays — no postal delivery times or manual handling
• Higher accuracy — structured data reduces errors
• Widely supported — many large companies and public organisations rely on e-invoicing
• Cost-efficient and eco-friendly — no printing, paper or physical storage required
