Quipu: sovereignty score and 8 European alternatives

Quipu is a cloud platform for invoicing and financial management, aimed at self-employed professionals, companies and accounting firms in Spain. Its functions include invoicing, bank reconciliation, receipt scanning, cash-flow forecasting, tax forms and compliance with Verifactu, Spain's mandatory electronic invoicing system. The service runs in the browser and as a mobile app, and integrations and an API are available on its Solution plan.

Quipu is headquartered in Barcelona. Through its French parent Sellsy, the company belongs to the Italian TeamSystem group, which acquired Sellsy in 2025. TeamSystem's majority shareholder is the US private equity firm Hellman & Friedman, so a US owner sits above the vendor and the US CLOUD Act is relevant. Quipu states that its backups and data run on AWS servers. The software is proprietary and offers no self-hosted or open-source option, so European organisations should weigh the ownership structure and hosting arrangements against their own requirements.

Why digital sovereignty matters with Quipu

Quipu is headquartered in ES and therefore falls under European law: the GDPR, NIS2 and the Data Act. No foreign legislation can compel access to your data. The ultimate owner is based in US. Foreign control undermines part of the certainty a European headquarters offers.

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

Quipu 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 Quipu together with your other vendors and gives a total score, a heatmap and the main risk drivers.
