fiskaly: sovereignty score and 8 European alternatives

fiskaly provides cloud-based APIs that let point-of-sale and cash register systems meet fiscal requirements. The offering covers country-specific fiscalisation (signing of till transactions, including for Germany, Austria, Spain and Italy), electronic filing to the German tax authority, export of fiscal data for audits, e-invoicing via Peppol, digital receipts and fiscal archiving. The service is delivered as a REST API on the provider's cloud infrastructure; according to the website, no additional hardware is required.

fiskaly GmbH is based in Vienna, Austria, and has a German subsidiary, fiskaly Germany GmbH, in Frankfurt am Main. The website names no parent company. According to the provider, its services and the third parties involved are located within the EU. No open-source licence or self-hosted option is mentioned. For European POS and software vendors that want to handle fiscal compliance through an API operated from the EU, this is a relevant option; the specific hosting providers are not named on the website.

Why digital sovereignty matters with fiskaly

fiskaly is headquartered in AT and therefore falls under European law: the GDPR, NIS2 and the Data Act. No foreign legislation can compel access to your data.

Data is hosted exclusively in the EU, so fiskaly scores best on data residency.

fiskaly is closed source and hosted by the vendor. The encryption keys and the runtime sit with the vendor and switching requires data migration. Ask about bring-your-own-key, export options and open standards.

What this means for your organisation depends on your whole stack and context. The free assessment weighs fiskaly together with your other vendors and gives a total score, a heatmap and the main risk drivers.
