Stop letting invoicing slow you down

Three reasons merchants selling in France choose FacturX.

Fully automatic

Every paid or fulfilled order triggers its own invoice. Refunds automatically produce credit notes. Zero manual work.

Compliant with French law

Factur-X EN 16931 profile, PDF/A-3, mandatory legal mentions, continuous sequential numbering and immutable invoices: ready for the reform and for your accountant.

Self-service for customers

A download button on the thank-you page, in the customer account and in the confirmation email. Nobody emails you asking for their invoice anymore.

Everything you need to invoice with confidence

From template design to accounting exports, FacturX covers the whole invoicing chain.

Visual editor

An invoice template that matches your brand

Customize every zone of the invoice with a live preview: logo, colors, font sizes, product table columns, totals lines, footer. Reorder elements with drag & drop.

  • A separate template per language (French, English)
  • Dynamic variables: store name, address, contact details
  • Faithful PDF preview before you publish

Legal numbering

One continuous sequence, even across stores

French law requires chronological, gap-free invoice numbering. FacturX guarantees it: an atomic sequential counter, custom formats, and the ability to link several Shopify stores into a single invoicing entity sharing one sequence.

  • Free-form format: prefix, date, order number, {sequence}
  • Smart initialization to take over from another tool
  • Numbers reserved at creation, never reused

A download button appears on the thank-you page and in the customer account, next to the “Buy again” button. A link can also be inserted into the order confirmation email.

  • Customizable button style (colors, text)
  • Texts automatically translated to the customer's language
  • SIRET / VAT number collection for B2B purchases

The reform's format, built in

Every PDF embeds a Factur-X XML at the EN 16931 profile: invoice lines, VAT breakdown per rate, party identities, SIRET and VAT numbers. The format required for e-invoicing through accredited platforms (PDPs).

  • Compliant PDF/A-3, veraPDF validated (0 errors)
  • Self-consistent CII XML (BR-CO rules of the standard)
  • Compliant credit notes (type 381) for refunds

Accounting

Exports your accountant will love

Browse every issued invoice with frozen amounts, filter by period and store, then export as CSV or as a FEC file (Fichier des Écritures Comptables) — the format expected by the French tax administration.

  • Immutable invoices: an issued PDF never changes
  • FEC export: a sales journal ready for your accountant
  • Net / VAT / gross totals per currency, credit notes deducted

Frequently asked questions

Everything you should know before installing FacturX.

Is FacturX compliant with the French e-invoicing reform?

Yes. FacturX generates invoices in the Factur-X format at the EN 16931 profile — the hybrid format (human-readable PDF + structured XML) chosen by the French reform. From September 2026, every French business must be able to receive electronic invoices, and issuing will progressively become mandatory: your invoices will already be in the right format.

What exactly is the Factur-X format?

Factur-X is a hybrid invoice: a regular, human-readable PDF that embeds a structured XML file containing all the invoice data (amounts, VAT, parties, line items). The EN 16931 profile is the level of detail required by the European standard and the French reform.

Are invoices really generated automatically?

Yes. You pick the trigger — order paid or order fulfilled — and FacturX generates the invoice with no intervention. Refunds automatically produce a compliant credit note. You can also generate manually, including in bulk.

Can I customize my invoices?

Fully: logo, colors, fonts, product table columns, totals lines, contact details, footer mentions… with a live preview. You can even define a different template per language (French, English).

How do my customers get their invoices?

Three channels: a download button on the thank-you page right after purchase, the same button in their customer account next to “Buy again”, and a link in the order confirmation email. Each channel can be toggled on or off.

I sell through several Shopify stores. Does numbering stay legal?

Yes — this is a FacturX exclusive: link your stores into a single invoicing entity that shares one numbering sequence. French law requires one continuous chronological series per legal entity — FacturX guarantees it even with several revenue sources.

Do you handle business customers (B2B)?

Yes. A “Business purchase” block on the thank-you page lets your customers enter their company name, SIRET and intra-community VAT number. That information is injected into the PDF and the Factur-X XML.

Is the app really free?

Yes — during early access everything is free and unlimited. And if you install now, you'll keep every current feature free forever, even once a paid plan launches for future advanced features.
