STEP 02

GoBD rules make tracking upfront deposits complicated

Under German tax laws and GoBD guidelines, managing advance payments and client packages manually in spreadsheets is highly risky. Recording VAT (Umsatzsteuer) liabilities and tracking remaining client balances manually often leads to auditing issues.

Zenbooks customer deposits simplify upfront billing for German businesses. Load the client's balance in EUR (€). Settle invoices instantly from their pre-funded balancecalculating 19% VAT and generating a compliant invoice automatically.
