petimus

Petimus is a European fintech company that specializes in providing digital invoicing and payment solutions for small and medium-sized enterprises. Founded in 2015 in Stockholm, Sweden, the company was established by a former employee of a multinational ERP provider with the goal of simplifying the billing process for businesses operating across the EU. Petimus’ platform offers features such as automated invoice generation, real‑time payment status tracking, and integration with popular accounting software. The service supports multiple currencies and complies with the European Union’s PSD2 and the EU VAT Directive, making it a popular choice for cross-border transactions.

In addition to its core invoicing functions, Petimus has expanded into accounts receivable management and cash‑flow forecasting. In 2019, the company introduced a cloud‑based dashboard that allows managers to visualize outstanding receivables and predict future cash flow with artificial‑intelligence analytics. Petimus’ API allows developers to embed its invoicing capabilities into custom applications, and it currently partners with over 200 fintech startups in the EU and the UK. The company has raised €30 million in funding across three rounds, with backing from the European Investment Bank, several Swedish venture capital funds, and angel investors from the technology sector.

Petimus has been recognized for its contribution to digital transformation in the European economy. In 2021 the company was listed in the European FinTech 100 rankings as one of the fastest‑growing startups, and it has received the European Commission’s Digital Innovation Award for its user‑friendly compliance solutions. The firm remains headquartered in Stockholm, with additional offices in Berlin, Lisbon and Warsaw.
