With Payt you send sales invoices via eConnect in 2026 using the Email Receiver. Payt sends invoices as PDF (with UBL attachment) by e-mail to eConnect, where they are prepared as draft invoices on the platform. From there you send them via Peppol to the recipient. Want to also receive purchase invoices? That is possible via an additional Basecone integration.

Before you start

An active eConnect account with at least a Basic subscription
Access to your Payt environment
Sufficient transaction credits on your eConnect account

Setting up the integration

Step 1: Create a trusted sender in eConnect

Go to Email Receiver in the left menu.
Click New sender and create a trusted email sender for Draft invoices.
Note the generated eConnect email address. You will need this in the next step.

Step 2: Set the email address in Payt

Pass the generated eConnect email address to Payt, or set it as the sending address for invoices in your Payt environment.
Configure Payt to send sales invoices as PDF (with attached UBL file) to the eConnect address.

Step 3: Send invoices

Invoices that Payt sends to the eConnect address are automatically prepared as draft invoices on the platform. The further process is as follows:

The invoice appears as a draft invoice in your eConnect Outbox.
Check the invoice details (recipient, amounts, VAT).
Click Send to send the invoice via Peppol.
The delivery status is immediately visible in the Outbox.

Points to note

Invoices are prepared as drafts. You must manually check and release them for sending.
Make sure the invoice contains a valid UBL file as an attachment; without UBL, eConnect cannot send the invoice as an e-invoice via Peppol.
Want to automate receiving purchase invoices? Connect Basecone as the receiving administration. This way you combine Payt for sending with Basecone for receiving.

Frequently asked questions

Can I also receive purchase invoices via eConnect with Payt?

Not directly via the Payt integration. Payt is focused on sending sales invoices. If you also want to receive purchase invoices, you can set up an additional Basecone integration. This way you combine Payt for sending with Basecone for receiving.

Must invoices from Payt contain a UBL attachment?

Yes, for sending via Peppol the invoice must contain a valid UBL file as an attachment. Without UBL, eConnect cannot send the invoice as an e-invoice via Peppol. Payt sends PDFs with UBL attachment by default.

Are invoices automatically sent via Peppol?

No, invoices are prepared as draft invoices on the eConnect platform. You check the invoice details (recipient, amounts, VAT) and manually release them for sending via Peppol.
