How it works
01
Capture
Upload invoices via drag & drop or forward them straight to your Zifra email address. PDF, scan or photo — anything goes.
02
Understand
Zifra reads the Swiss QR payment part precisely — no guesswork. AI handles the rest: sender, amounts, VAT, payment terms, suggested booking account. Electronic invoices (ZUGFeRD/Factur-X) are taken over directly.
03
Review & approve
Everything that matters on one screen, with the original document right next to it. Zifra flags duplicates, sum errors and changed IBANs on its own. Optional four-eyes approval.
04
Pay & post
Generate the payment file, upload it to your e-banking, done. The bookings flow into your accounting system via export — or to your fiduciary.

FAQ
Where is my data stored?
Exclusively in Swiss data centers. The integrated AI runs on Swiss infrastructure as well; only if you actively choose Claude does Anthropic (USA) process your documents.
What counts as an invoice?
Every supplier invoice processed in a calendar year — whether uploaded, sent by email or entered manually.
Can I take my data with me?
Yes, in full: all invoices, master data and original documents as a structured export. At no extra cost.
Which banks are supported?
Every Swiss bank that accepts ISO 20022 payment files (pain.001) — which is the standard today.
Does Zifra replace my accounting system?
No — Zifra is the upstream system that handles the accounts payable work and hands over cleanly to Abacus, Infoniqa ONE 50 or, via CSV, any other accounting system.
Do I need to install anything?
No. Zifra runs in the browser — on Mac, Windows and tablet.
