We’ve introduced an essential new feature for Optimize and Pay customers. This feature allows you to create, add, and manage multiple policy documents and display them on your hosted plan or payment checkout pages. Additionally, each policy can include a consent checkbox, ensuring compliance with legal requirements and making it easy for customers to provide explicit consent.

Create, add or manage Policy Documents 

- Add policy documents to meet legal or business requirements, such as:

- Terms & Conditions (general service agreements)

- Privacy Policies (GDPR, CCPA, and other data protection laws)

- Refund, Shipping & Cancellation Policies (clear return and refund terms)

- Marketing Consent (email and SMS opt-ins for regulatory compliance)

Get started: Configurations → Checkout Management → Policies and Documents

Visit our Helpcentre for step-by-step guidance.

Add consent boxes to your hosted checkout. 

Add consent checkboxes to ensure customers actively agree to required policies and stay compliant with regulations (GDPR, CCPA, PSD2, and more).

Get started: Configurations → Checkout Management → Checkout → Consent Configuration

Visit our Helpcentre for step-by-step guidance if needed and scroll to consent configuration

API Customers can use the Checkout Helper and open a Subscription Session to add policies and consent too. 

Here’s how it might look in your checkout:

We’ve extended our PDF invoice settings, giving you more control over how invoices are generated and displayed. Previously, zero-amount invoices and timestamps were always autogenerated for compliance and record-keeping. Now, these settings are enabled by default if you use PDF invoices, but you can disable them if they are not needed.

Why Disable These Settings?

Zero-Amount PDF Invoices

You might choose to disable zero-amount invoices to:
✅ Reduce unnecessary customer communication – Avoid confusion from invoices showing €0.00 when no payment is due.
✅ Minimize email & notification overload – Prevent automated invoice emails for non-billable transactions.
✅ Keep accounting & reporting clean – Focus financial records on revenue-generating transactions.
✅ Avoid e-invoicing costs – If you pay per generated invoice, disabling zero-amount invoices helps control costs.
✅ Optimize subscription & usage-based billing – Skip invoices for free trials, discounts, or prepaid credits when they are not needed.

Timestamps on PDF Invoices

You might choose to disable timestamps to:
✅ Keep invoices clean & minimal – Remove unnecessary details for a simpler invoice format.
✅ Avoid conflicts with internal systems – If your ERP, CRM, or accounting system already tracks invoice creation times, timestamps on PDFs may be redundant.
✅ Ensure regulatory or compliance flexibility – Some regions do not require timestamps, so turning them off can help standardize invoice formatting.

👉 To disable these settings, go to Configurations → Finance and Accounting → Invoice and Credit Notes → PDF Invoice Settings.

Back in April, we rolled out a new sidebar, but we knew there was more we could do to streamline your experience. Today, we’re excited to announce a complete overhaul of our navigation system, making it easier to access all your features and settings in one unified place. Let’s take a closer look at the key improvements:

1. Revamped 'Configurations' section

The Configurations section is now your one-stop hub for everything product-related. Whether it’s setting up new plans or configuring your DATEV export, you’ll find everything you need here, clearly organized.

2. Unified 'Settings' and 'Configurations'

Previously, having both "Settings" and "Configurations" caused some confusion about where to find account versus product-related options. We’ve simplified things by removing the "Settings" section altogether. Now, all account and organization-related settings can be found under Configurations > Admin and Billing.

3. New search functionality for menu options

With so many features packed into the platform, it can be tricky to remember where everything lives. That’s why we’ve added a Search function! Quickly find the menu option you’re looking for without having to hunt through categories.

4. Pin most-used features

To make navigation even faster, you can now pin your most-used feature groups for quick access. Simply open the search menu to see an alphabetical list of all available features, and pin up to five of your favorites for instant access.

The enhanced sidebar is designed to save you time and make navigation more intuitive. We’re confident this update will improve your overall experience but let us know first hand by commenting below! 🚀

Hi Billwerk tribe, 

We are thrilled to introduce our latest feature: B2B Reverse Charge! This enhancement is designed to make selling your services across the EU smoother and more compliant with tax regulations. Reverse charging is a tax mechanism where the recipient of the goods or services is liable to pay the tax instead of you, the supplier. This is only applicable for B2B transactions involving cross-border services or goods in the EU. The Reverse Charge mechanism does not apply to B2C transactions.    

What does this mean for you?

Reverse Charge functionality empowers B2B finance teams to navigate complex international tax scenarios effortlessly. By automating the identification, calculation, and reporting of reverse charges, we help you maintain compliance, reduce risk, and free up valuable time for strategic financial planning.

• Tax handling: Our system now applies the tax rates configured in the Tax Policy, ensuring compliance without any extra effort from you. When the Reverse Charge setting is enabled, the system will handle the application of reverse charge where ever applicable.
• Simplified operations: No need to manage complex tax rules or keep track of different tax rates for various countries. We’ve got it covered, freeing up your time to focus on growing your business.
• Accurate invoicing: Rest assured that your invoices will reflect the appropriate tax information, reducing the risk of errors and potential penalties.

How to Enable: To take advantage of this feature, simply create a new Tax Policy or edit an existing under Configurations and turn on the Reverse Charge setting.

When is Reverse Charge Applied?

• Countries: The reverse charge is applied when the customer’s country is different from your account’s country.
• VAT ID: The customer's record in the system should have a valid VAT ID configured
• Tax Policy: The tax policy associated with the Plan, Add-On and Usage-based billing has reverse charge enabled for it

Invoice and credit note update: When the Reverse Charge setting is enabled, your invoices and credit notes will include the text "Reverse Charge" in all the available EU languages in Billwerk+ Optimize as determined by Article 226 paragraph 11a of the VAT Directive 2006/112/EC (amending Directive 2010/45/EU of 13 July 2010)

Why is this Important?  Implementing reverse charges on B2B invoices and subscriptions can significantly impact your tax management processes, offering financial and operational advantages. 

Need Help? If you have any questions or need assistance with setting up the new feature, our support team is here to help. Raise a support ticket in the portal under the ? Help section.

We are excited to announce the introduction of Usage-based billing within the platform. With Usage-based billing, your customers can now enjoy tailored billing that scales with their actual consumption, ensuring they only pay for what they use. This feature allows you to test, measure and scale your pricing strategy with flexibility and reduce churn by offering tailored plans that grow with your customers.

Why We Introduced It:

In response to customer feedback and evolving market demands, we recognized the need for a billing model that adapts to variable usage. Whether it’s SaaS, utilities, or any consumption-based service, Usage-based billing offers:

• Flexible billing: Customers are billed based on actual usage, leading to fairer and more accurate charges.
• Scalability: As usage grows, billing scales automatically, removing the guesswork for businesses.
• Cost efficiency: This model eliminates the need for expensive fixed-rate plans, ensuring customers only pay for what they consume, building trust.
