CFDI invoicing

CFDI 4.0 invoices, each linked to its journal entry.

You stamp the invoice with your hotel’s digital seal certificate (CSD), or the guest issues it on their own, and the CFDI (Mexican e-invoice) is linked to that day’s journal entry.

How it works

Upload the digital seal certificate

The private key goes to the authorized certification provider (PAC), not into the database.

Stamp it, or let the guest self-invoice

From the front desk or from the self-invoicing portal.

The invoice is delivered

By email and WhatsApp, with its XML and PDF.

It’s linked to its journal entry

The day’s invoices appear in that date’s journal entry.

What’s included

CFDI 4.0 stamping with the hotel’s digital seal certificate.

The limit

The certificate’s private key doesn’t live in the database: it’s handed to the authorized certification provider (PAC). If you choose to keep it so you can cancel invoices, it stays on the server, outside the database; you can uncheck that option.

The payment complement receipt is calculated, but its stamping is still in development.
