E-Invoicing / E-Billing - From Evolution to Revolution

Report published by Billentis

WIL, Switzerland, March 29, 2011 - Organisations can save the equivalent of 1-2% of their turnover by
replacing paper invoices and optimising the related processes. Compared to
traditional paper-based systems, electronic and automated invoice processes
can generate savings of 50-80%. Consequently, the payback period on
e-Invoicing projects can be as short as six months.

In 2011, approximately 5 million European invoice issuers and 75 million
recipients are expected to exchange more than three billion electronic
invoices. In the past, e-Invoicing was often initiated by large enterprises
or the public sector. These days, however, a wide variety of efficient
e-Invoicing solutions are available for small and medium-sized enterprises,
which is one of the reasons for why strong and sustainable growth rates of
30-35% have been predicted for the coming years.

Due to the attractiveness of this market, around 500 service providers
