Peppol is a network designed to simplify sending and receiving electronic invoices. Accountable can be used to send invoices via Peppol, even if another provider (for example, your accountant's tool) is used for receiving them.
Important note: You can send invoices through multiple Peppol access points, but you can only receive invoices through one access point.
If you are truly not registered anywhere yet, Accountable cannot set you up as send-only straight away. Send-only is only possible in Accountable when your receiving access point is already set somewhere else.
First, make sure your receiving access point is set up with another provider (for example your accountant’s tool).
Then follow Case 3 below to activate send-only in Accountable.
Go to Settings > Peppol and check your status.
If it says Active: Send-only → you’re done. You can send Peppol invoices from Accountable, and you will keep receiving invoices via your other provider.
If it says Active: Full (sending & receiving) → you cannot switch to send-only directly in Accountable. You should:
Unregister from Peppol with Accountable
Register with another provider (for receiving at least)
Register again with Accountable and follow the instruction in Case 3 (below)
Go to Settings > Peppol
Click Already registered somewhere else?
Select Register for sending only.
Verify your business details.
Complete identity verification (if requested).
⚠️ Verification may already be completed
In some cases, verification can be skipped automatically if you have already submitted your taxes or connected a bank account with matching personal details.
This depends on our internal checks and cannot be guaranteed, especially if you update any personal information during registration.
If you are likely already verified, you will see this message at the start of registration:
“You are most likely already verified.”
6. Your status becomes Pending, then Active for sending only once approved.
You cannot receive invoices through multiple Peppol access points.
If you try to register fully in Accountable while you already receive via another provider, Accountable will automatically set you up as send-only.
For any further questions or assistance with Peppol registration, feel free to contact Accountable support at support@accountable.eu.

In the world where everyone seems to be out to get small entrepreneurs and overwhelm them with new rules, more taxes and reporting obligations, Accountable often feels like the one steady partner that actually wants you to succeed, providing quick, clear and personalised support. Thank you!

UI is great. Feature packed and very easy to use. The team at Accountable were VERY quick to respond and their team of technicians soon had a fix in place. Very happy with the level of service so far. Thumbs up from me!

This program is a lifesaver, and it is always improving. Plus, it has an AI chat feature that is actually useful.

The coaching session on tax management was excellent, good material, excellent explanations and very insightful. Combined with the AI I never feel alone with Accountable.

The availability of your team to help and guide people to understand their finances better is what really makes Accountable valuable. While the AI is able to give answers to most basic questions, specific scenarios need counsel from a human which your team performs beautifully.

They always answer for questions wherever is via direct e-mail or through app. If they can’t answer fully they will forward you to the right place. Documents were always prepared well and ready to send further to government. Everything is intuitive in the app and easy to sort out even for someone completely green in this field.
