When peppol.sh is the better choice

peppol.sh is a genuinely strong developer API. It's the better pick when:

  • You're a solo developer or a single company sending your own invoices.
  • Your volume is low or sporadic — pay-per-document with no monthly fee works out cheaper.
  • You want an API-first workflow you can drive entirely from the terminal or an AI agent — peppol.sh doesn't require a dashboard.
  • You want the fastest possible first send (peppol.sh advertises ~30 seconds).
  • AI-agent integration (SKILL.md / MCP server) is a priority for you today.

When getpeppr is the better choice

getpeppr is built for the platform shape — sending on behalf of many customers, with the tooling that requires.

  • You're a SaaS or ERP platform sending Peppol invoices on behalf of many customer legal entities.
  • You need a native multi-tenant model — one master API key, N legal entities, per-tenant authorisation.
  • You need an identity-verification gate before a customer can send, with current automatic and assisted availability published on getpeppr's country coverage page.
  • You want a published, type-safe TypeScript SDK and CLI on npm today, plus a management dashboard.
  • You prefer predictable subscription pricing as you scale, and white-glove help embedding Peppol.

Frequently asked questions

Is peppol.sh cheaper than getpeppr?

At low or sporadic volume, often yes — peppol.sh has no monthly fee and you pay per document (from EUR 0.20 down to EUR 0.10 at higher top-ups). getpeppr starts at EUR 49/month plus usage. getpeppr's value shows up when you're a platform sending for many customer legal entities and want native multi-tenant support, identity verification, a dashboard, and predictable pricing as you scale.

Does peppol.sh have an official SDK?

peppol.sh's homepage lists TypeScript, Python and PHP SDKs as coming soon, and as of 2026-09-03 no npm package was resolvable (checked under @peppol-sh/node, @peppol-sh/sdk, and @peppol-sh/peppol); its REST API ships code samples instead. getpeppr ships a published, type-safe TypeScript SDK (@getpeppr/sdk) and a CLI (@getpeppr/cli) on npm today.

Which is better for a multi-tenant SaaS platform?

getpeppr is purpose-built for it: one master API key, N legal entities, per-tenant authorisation, and an identity-verification gate before each legal entity can send. Automatic checks depend on the identifier scheme; other supported paths require review. peppol.sh supports multi-tenant sending through its Connect tier (which unlocks from a EUR 250 top-up, with no per-tenant fee) and offers KYC and VAT validation, but not getpeppr's per-entity verification and authorisation lifecycle.

Can I migrate from peppol.sh to getpeppr?

Both are JSON-in / UBL-out APIs that deliver over a certified Peppol Access Point, so the integration shape is similar. You map your invoice JSON to getpeppr's schema and onboard your legal entities; the CLI lets you validate invoices offline first, with no account required.
