85% of Fortune 500 companies choose Fintua
Why VAT compliance challenges Digital Sellers
High transaction volumes
Subscriptions, micro‑transactions and platform‑generated invoices create large, complex datasets requiring automated validation
Digital VAT/GST rules are dynamic
Thresholds, place‑of‑supply rules and evidence requirements vary across the EU and globally. Comply supports multi‑country return types
Multiple systems
Billing engines, payment service providers (PSPs), app stores and marketplaces all generate different report formats. Templates and mapping help standardise them
EU schemes (OSS)
B2C sellers of digital services must frequently manage EU schemes, each with its own frequencies and data requirements. Supported in Comply as return types
Audit expectations
Digital sellers need invoice‑level audit trails, prior‑period comparisons and defensible mapping and transformation rules
