Brands and partners using the impact.com platform will have any transactions incurred, invoiced for or to them based on a particular invoice method. Invoicing methods are determined based on the impact entity that the brand or partner engages with. This is largely determined based on geographical location.
The two invoicing methods employed on the platform are:
If you have signed up to impact via our UK, Singapore or Australian entity, or else are in the regions of EMEA, South East Asia/South Asia or Australia/New Zealand, you would be using the invoicing method of invoicing via an impact.com entity.
It is worth noting that even if you are on the invoicing method of direct invoicing, you may have invoices to or from an impact.com entity. This occurs when the counterparty to a particular transaction has the invoicing method of invoicing via impact.com entity.
In the event that you are on the invoicing method of invoicing via an impact.com entity, you can then expect:
All invoices generated to be to/from a single counterparty (impact.com entity)
Consistent indirect tax treatment across all transactions
