What Sufio is good at

Where the two differ

The price curve is the difference

Sufio prices by invoice volume in steps that get expensive fast. SayPDF charges $5/month for unlimited-feature invoicing and $39/month at the top of the range, where the only things that scale are sending volume and how long the archive is kept.

German e-invoicing, included

ZUGFeRD / Factur-X and XRechnung are on the free plan here. Get the format your German B2B buyers will require in 2027 without a compliance tier.

You design it, without a support ticket

A drag-and-drop editor plus AI reconstruction of an invoice you upload, instead of a themed template you configure.

The accounting hand-off

DATEV-format export and live Lexware Office / sevDesk sync — the file the German bookkeeper asks for, on every plan.

Price

SayPDF: $0 with every feature enabled for up to 100 invoice emails a month, then $5 / $12 / $39 a month for more sending, more AI generations and a longer archive. Yearly billing is two months free.
Sufio: Tiered by invoice volume, from around $7/month up to $129/month for larger stores.

When you should NOT switch

If you are already on Sufio, the VAT logic is working for your B2B flows and the invoice volume fits comfortably inside the tier you pay for, switching buys you price, not capability.

Run both side by side — invoices you issue in SayPDF are yours to download and keep.
