Peppol Plugged

Description

Peppol Plugged for WooCommerce is a plugin that will connect you to the Peppol Plugged API which can then be validated and sent over the Peppol network.

After an order is created within WooCommerce, an order is submitted to our API – Peppol Plugged – which then converts the WooCommerce invoice data to an XML format suitable for submission to the Peppol Network.

From 2026 Peppol’s e-invoicing becomes mandatory for many European countries, this is a simple way to generate compliant invoices that can be submitted to the Peppol Network.

Please Note: A minimum of WooCommerce 9.2 is required for this plugin to work. This plugin does work on earlier versions (9.0+) but you need to manually send the order to Peppol Plugged API from the WooCommerce > Orders page.

This plugin requires High-Performance Order Storage (HPOS) as some features are unavailable in Legacy (WordPress Posts) Mode. The plugin does work in Legacy mode with compatability mode enabled, but some features may not work.

Upon registration you can generate 20 valid XML invoices a month from our service for free that you will be able to submit to Peppol manually. To automatically submit or to send more than 20 invoices please upgrade to one of our paid Peppol Plugged Pro plans.

Peppol Plugged Pro

Peppol Plugged Pro will allow more than 20 invoices to be sent to the Peppol network. You will also get the ability to generate PDF invoices detailing successful submission, and email support.

FAQ

What happens if a customer enters an incorrect Peppol ID?

If a customer enters an incorrect Peppol ID, the invoice may not be delivered correctly. In Peppol Plugged, webshop owners can adjust the order’s Peppol ID afterward and have the e-invoice resent via the Peppol network. This way, they don’t have to recreate the order from scratch.

Does Peppol Plugged only work for Belgian customers?

No. The plugin was deliberately developed as an internationally applicable solution. Do you have Belgian B2B customers? Then Peppol Plugged helps you comply with e-invoicing requirements. Do you have customers in other countries? Once they have a Peppol ID and want to invoice via Peppol, you can send invoices using the same plugin. This allows you to prepare your webshop for developments in other countries without having to redesign your entire invoicing process.

Do I still need to upload or export files myself?

The free version requires you to download the XML and upload to Peppol directly. To skip this step, please upgrade to Peppol Plugged Pro.

Is Peppol Plugged also suitable if I only occasionally have business customers?

Yes. Especially if you don’t work with large numbers of invoices daily, it’s helpful if these kinds of requirements are handled automatically. You don’t have to figure out “how do I send via Peppol” for each customer or invoice – Peppol Plugged takes care of that as soon as a business customer enters their Peppol ID.

Where do I report security bugs found in this plugin?
