Unlock free U.S. e-invoicing with Avalara

• Avalara, through the DBNAlliance access point, now enables U.S. customers to send and receive structured e-invoices at zero transaction cost.
• Structured e-invoicing improves accuracy, reduces manual work, accelerates payment cycles, and supports consistent tax data capture.
•  By adopting standards-based e-invoicing today, businesses of all sizes can prepare for potential U.S. mandates.

Paper and PDF invoices, still the most common form of invoicing for most U.S. companies, are nearly twice as likely to be paid late — disrupting cash flow, increasing manual intervention, and delaying reconciliation.

Traditional e-invoicing networks often lock participants into closed systems, forcing large enterprises to manage multiple portals while leaving smaller suppliers behind entirely. Each additional customer connection adds cost, complexity, and onboarding time — especially when document formats or tax data fields don’t align. Avalara and the DBNAlliance change that with a universal, standards-based approach that works for companies of any size, on any platform, enabling you to:

• Cut processing costs and cycle time:
  No printing, scanning, or manual entry. Reduce exceptions and empower your Accounts Payable and Accounts Receivable teams.
• Eliminate rework and portal fatigue:
  No more switching between multiple disconnected AP portals, PDF uploads, or duplicate data entry. Send and receive structured invoices directly from the ERP system you already use.
• Increase invoice accuracy and reduce audit risk:
  Machine-readable data ensures consistent tax capture — reducing errors, easing reconciliation, and audit preparation.
• Improve working capital and payment timelines:
  Faster approvals, fewer payment delays. Improve supplier relationships and cash visibility.
• Standardize and scale your operations:
  Consistent formatting, validation, and routing across all domestic transactions. Future-ready for mandates.

Best of all, there’s no budget ask. Avalara’s DBNAlliance offer includes free ERP connectors and zero-cost domestic e-invoicing — removing the friction that often slows down finance transformation projects.

For business leaders, the case is clear: e-invoiced transactions in the U.S. are paid 2 days faster on average — reducing late payments and unlocking cash flow for your company to the tune of $15.16 for every e-invoice received and $8.93 for every e-invoice sent.

Additionally, adopting structured e-invoicing could save U.S. companies over $5.4 billion annually through faster processing and better data.
