InfoCert Fatturazione Elettronica Review 2026: Italy's Leading Trust Service Provider
InfoCert is a major Italian digital trust service provider — part of the Tinexta Group — and one of Italy's leading SDI intermediaries for FatturaPA e-invoicing. While less visible to consumers than Aruba or Fattura24, InfoCert is the platform behind the scenes for hundreds of thousands of Italian businesses and many enterprise and government implementations.
We tested their FatturaPA service, conservazione sostitutiva, and Peppol access point in 2026.

Who Should Use InfoCert?
InfoCert is suited for:
- Italian businesses with moderate-to-high invoice volumes who need reliable SDI transmission and guaranteed conservazione
- Foreign businesses with Italian VAT who need an established intermediary for SDI compliance
- Businesses needing Peppol for cross-border EU invoicing alongside FatturaPA
- Enterprise and mid-market businesses that value the security and compliance credentials of an AGID-accredited provider
For very small businesses and freelancers with low volumes, Aruba or Fattura24 may be simpler and cheaper. InfoCert's full capabilities become most valuable at higher invoice volumes.
SDI Transmission: Testing Results
We created a test FatturaPA invoice (B2B, codice destinatario provided by our test intermediary account) and submitted it through InfoCert's API.
API Test
InfoCert offers both a web portal and a REST API. We tested the API (most common for businesses with ERP integrations).
- Invoice submission: ✅ Accepted within 1 second
- SDI validation pass-through: ✅ Invoice accepted by SDI
- Status notifications: Webhook-based, received delivery confirmation within 30 seconds
- Error reporting: When we deliberately submitted a malformed invoice, the error message clearly identified the problematic field (codice destinatario format error)
Web Portal
For businesses without API integration, the web portal is clean and functional. You can:
- Create and submit invoices manually
- Upload XML files for transmission
- View all sent and received invoices with their SDI status
- Download the SDI notification files (ricevuta/notification/scarto)
Conservazione Sostitutiva
InfoCert's conservazione sostitutiva is one of its strongest features. It is:
AGID-accredited: InfoCert is one of the 50+ organisations accredited by AGID (Agenzia per l'Italia Digitale) as a certified digital preservation provider under the CAD (Codice dell'Amministrazione Digitale).
What's included:
- Automatic archiving of every invoice transmitted through InfoCert
- 10-year retention in AGID-compliant format
- Cryptographic hash at time of archiving (immutability proof)
- On-demand attestato di conservazione (conservation certificate)
- Compliance with the May 2026 Agenzia delle Entrate updated specifications
Cloud storage compliance: InfoCert's storage is hosted on EU-based ISO 27001-certified infrastructure, meeting the May 2026 Agenzia delle Entrate requirements for cloud-based conservazione.
Archive export: We tested the archive export function — it generates a compliant archive package (ZIP with manifest and hash file) that can be submitted to the Agenzia delle Entrate or transferred to another conservazione provider.
Peppol Access Point
InfoCert operates a certified Peppol access point — one of a limited number of Italian providers offering native Peppol alongside FatturaPA. This is important for:
- Italian businesses invoicing German, Belgian, Dutch, or French customers
- Businesses needing to send Peppol BIS 3.0 invoices without a separate Peppol provider
Coverage: InfoCert's Peppol access point supports all Peppol-connected countries (38+ countries as of Q1 2026).
Registration: Your Peppol ID is provisioned automatically when you activate InfoCert's Peppol module. The Peppol ID format for Italian businesses is typically 0211:IT{PartitaIVA}.
PEC Integration (LEGALMAIL)
InfoCert operates LEGALMAIL, one of Italy's largest PEC (Posta Elettronica Certificata) services. The FatturaPA platform and LEGALMAIL are natively integrated, meaning:
- FatturaPA invoices routed via PEC address go through LEGALMAIL automatically
- Delivery certificates and timestamps are stored alongside the invoice in the archive
- Receiving invoices via PEC: LEGALMAIL can be configured to automatically forward incoming FatturaPA invoices to your SDI inbox
This is particularly valuable for businesses that receive invoices from suppliers who send via PEC rather than codice destinatario.
Pricing
InfoCert uses a tiered pricing model based on invoice volume:
| Volume | Monthly price | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Up to 10 invoices/month | Free | Includes conservazione |
| Up to 50/month | ~€7/month | |
| Up to 250/month | ~€18/month | |
| Up to 1,000/month | ~€35/month | |
| >1,000/month | Custom pricing | Enterprise contract |
All tiers include conservazione sostitutiva and SDI transmission. Peppol access point is an additional module (pricing on request for enterprise; approximately €20/month for SME add-on).
For comparison:
- Aruba: Similar pricing on the free tier; comparable for mid-range volumes
- Fattura24: Cheaper for very low volumes; no Peppol
InfoCert vs. Aruba: Side-by-Side
| Feature | InfoCert | Aruba |
|---|---|---|
| Free tier | ✅ 10/month | ✅ Varies |
| Conservazione | ✅ AGID-certified | ✅ Included |
| Peppol | ✅ Native | ✅ Native |
| PEC integration | ✅ LEGALMAIL | ✅ Aruba PEC |
| API quality | ✅ Good | ✅ Good |
| Enterprise options | ✅ Strong | ✅ Strong |
| AGID accreditation | ✅ | ✅ |
| Brand recognition (Italy) | Moderate | High (1M+ users) |
| Best for | Businesses needing Peppol + SDI | High-volume simplicity |
Both are excellent. For businesses needing Peppol cross-border support, InfoCert's native Peppol access point makes it the stronger choice. For pure Italian SDI volume, Aruba's track record with 1M+ customers gives it an edge in familiarity.
Verdict
InfoCert is a reliable, well-credentialled SDI intermediary with genuine strengths in conservazione sostitutiva and Peppol connectivity. For businesses that need both Italian domestic FatturaPA compliance and cross-border EU invoicing via Peppol, InfoCert's combined offering is one of the best in the Italian market.
The free tier (10 invoices/month) makes it accessible for low-volume businesses and for testing before committing to a paid plan. AGID accreditation provides strong assurance that the conservazione service will remain compliant with evolving Italian digital regulations.
Rating: 4.4 / 5 — Recommended for Italian businesses needing SDI + Peppol + AGID-certified conservazione.
