Status, in one sentence
Peppol on VIND is in beta. We emit valid UBL 2.1 invoice XML and we operate a pilot CTC transmission channel with a small set of customers. We are not advertising it as production-ready for general availability, and we will tell you that on a sales call.
Why we are saying this out loud
The fastest way to lose a multi-site customer in 2026 is to claim Peppol-readiness, get to the procurement compliance review, and have them discover the transmission piece is mocked. We have seen that pattern play out in this market.
The honest framing — “the UBL output is real, the transmission pipe is in pilot” — turns out to be the differentiator. Maltese owners and their accountants ask sharper Peppol questions than the average POS vendor expects; meeting them with a precise status answer earns trust the marketing version cannot.
What works today
- UBL 2.1 invoice generation. Sale lines, VAT lines, customer party, supplier party, totals, references — schema-valid, schematron-clean.
- Invoice-on-demand. Pull a Peppol-shaped XML for any historical receipt or invoice from the backoffice.
- Mapping verified. Maltese VAT codes (18, 7, 5, 0, exempt) map cleanly to the BT- codes; the mapping table is documented in the platform docs.
What is in pilot
- CTC (continuous transaction control) transmission. We have a transmitter integration in pilot with two early-adopter customers. The transmission endpoint is feature-flagged per tenant; only pilot customers can flip it on.
- Acknowledgement handling. The pilot tracks the technical and business-level acknowledgements from the receiving access point; we surface failures into the super-admin pane.
What you should expect from us
If you are a Maltese restaurant operator and a Peppol-capable workflow is a v1 acquisition gate, we will tell you to wait. If it is a strong directional preference but you are buying VIND for the POS + MTCA + offline story, we will sign you up and you will be next on the pilot list when capacity opens.
This is not a “Peppol-Ready ✓” badge with a footnote. It is a real status. We will update this page when the transmitter exits pilot.
