Invoice criterias

Irrespective of the delivery method of the invoices, various points are important, which are explained using the following sample invoice. This information must be clearly visible on the invoice so that our automatic invoice entry system can recognise it and create it in our system. If all these points are visible on your invoice, nothing should stand in the way of timely payment.

Payment details and information (QR-bill)

A valid bank account must be specified in the Configuration Agreement (CFA). If no QR information is available or if the QR information could not be detected, the transfer will be made to the bank account specified in the CFA.

  • QR information can only be processed if:

    • the QR information (QR-IBAN, QRR) is in the same PDF as the associated invoice

    • the email sent contains only the two PDFs: invoice and QR information. If there are several invoice PDFs and QR information, our automatic invoice creator cannot correctly allocate the QR information to the invoice and therefore would be ignored.

    • the QR information is OCR-capable.

Discount statements and fees

Any discounts and/or fees (e.g. vRG/Suisa) must be added to the respective items. A total of fees at the end of the invoice cannot be processed.

IMPORTANT: Before the first order processing, please send us an invoice sample (sensitive areas may be blacked out) for inspection and verification. To do so, simply send the document as a PDF with the note «invoice verification» to:

  • Digitec Galaxus AG (accounting@digitecgalaxus.ch)

  • Galaxus Deutschland GmbH: accounting@galaxus.de
