The solution and services will be implemented in New Zealand and Australia.

 "This major customer processes close to 4 million invoices annually" explains Esa Tihilä, CEO of Basware Corporation.

Activating suppliers to send their invoices electronically speeds up the e-invoice adoption and enables all parties to benefit from e-invoicing, easily", says Esa Tihilä, CEO, Basware Corporation.
