Best E-Invoicing Software for Spain in 2027

Spanish businesses need software that covers two distinct requirements: Verifactu certification (mandatory 1 January 2027 for companies, 1 July 2027 for the self-employed) and, further out, the Crea y Crece B2B e-invoicing mandate (1 October 2027 for larger businesses, 1 October 2028 for everyone else). See our complete Spain regulations guide if you need the full timeline first.

What to Check Before Choosing

Is it Verifactu-certified, or on track to be? Ask the vendor directly and check AEAT's published registry once available — don't rely on marketing claims alone.
Does it support Facturae for any public-sector (FACe) invoicing you also need to handle?
What's included in the free tier or trial, if you're a freelancer testing before committing?
Does the vendor have a stated roadmap for the B2B mandate, not just Verifactu? The two are separate certifications.

Compared: Three Verifactu-Certified Platforms

Holded

Holded is a Barcelona-based cloud ERP covering invoicing, accounting, inventory, and CRM in one platform, used by a large base of Spanish businesses. It advertises Verifactu certification alongside SII real-time reporting support.

Best for: SMEs wanting an all-in-one ERP rather than invoicing software alone
Pricing: Plans from around €29/month; 14-day free trial, no credit card required
Formats: Facturae (native)
Strengths: Broad e-commerce integrations (Shopify, WooCommerce, Amazon), 200+ bank connections, clean modern interface
Watch out for: Spain-market focus — limited use if you also need cross-border EU e-invoicing formats

FacturaDirecta

FacturaDirecta is a Spanish online invoicing platform aimed at freelancers and small businesses, marketed explicitly as "Software Certificado VeriFactu" with automatic AEAT submission and QR code generation.

Best for: Freelancers and small businesses wanting a free tier before committing to a paid plan
Pricing: Free tier (up to 10 clients / 10 products); paid plans from around €10–12/month
Formats: Facturae
Strengths: Free tier to start with no cost, wide Zapier-based integrations (Mailchimp, Trello, WooCommerce, Shopify, Slack)
Watch out for: Spain-only — no Peppol or cross-border formats; higher-volume plans needed as you grow

Contasimple

Contasimple is a lighter invoicing and basic-accounting tool with a permanent free tier, marketed as "Verifactu Ready" with tamper-evident invoice chaining.

Best for: Very low-volume freelancers who want to stay on a free plan long-term
Pricing: Free forever (up to 12 invoices/year); paid tiers from around €11–13/month
Formats: Facturae, including public-sector invoicing support
Strengths: Genuinely free tier for low volumes, simple interface
Watch out for: Free tier's invoice limit is very low; fewer advertised third-party integrations than Holded or FacturaDirecta

Quick Comparison

Software	Free tier	Starting price	Verifactu	Best for
Holded	❌ (trial only)	~€29/mo	✅	All-in-one ERP, growing SMEs
FacturaDirecta	✅ (10 clients)	~€10/mo	✅	Freelancers wanting to start free
Contasimple	✅ (12 invoices/yr)	~€11/mo	✅	Very low-volume freelancers

How to Choose

You run a growing SME and want invoicing plus accounting/inventory in one tool → Holded
You're a freelancer or micro-business wanting to test before paying → FacturaDirecta's free tier
You issue only a handful of invoices per year → Contasimple's free-forever plan may cover you indefinitely
You also need Facturae for FACe (public-sector) invoicing → all three listed here support it natively

None of these three vendors currently advertise Peppol connectivity or non-Spanish invoice formats — if you invoice cross-border into Peppol-mandated markets (Belgium, Poland, Italy) as well as Spain, budget for a second, Peppol-capable tool or check whether your chosen vendor adds that capability ahead of the B2B mandate.
