Agrunert E-Rechnung for ZUGFeRD

Starting in 2025/2026, electronic invoicing (E-Rechnung) is mandatory for B2B transactions in Germany under the Growth Opportunities Act (Wachstumschancengesetz) and across the European Union. Standard PDFs alone are no longer legally compliant for B2B transactions!

Agrunert E-Rechnung for ZUGFeRD assists store owners in meeting electronic invoicing requirements directly from WooCommerce:

• Standard-Compliant E-Invoicing: Generates hybrid PDF/A-3 documents with embedded Factur-X / ZUGFeRD 2.2 XML according to European standard EN 16931 to assist your invoicing workflow.
• Fully Automated: Invoices are automatically generated in the background when an order is marked as “Completed” and attached to the customer email.
• Zero Infrastructure Overhead: No complicated XML libraries or server extensions required on your WordPress host. Invoices are generated via our secure, high-performance REST API hosted in Frankfurt am Main, Germany (fra).
• Free Developer Test Mode: Test invoice generation risk-free without consuming paid credits (invoices are watermarked for testing).
• Fair Prepaid Pricing (No Subscription Required): 100 invoices for 10 € (0.10 € per invoice) without monthly contract lock-in.
