Here are answers to the most common questions about
the M8X launch and upcoming packages.
The eInvoice package is targeted for November 2026. This page is a pre-launch concept; production availability will be announced after the release is ready.
The regular proposed eInvoice subscription is ₱699 per TIN per month. The limited-time November 2026 introductory rate and its duration have not yet been finalized.
Yes, multi-branch setup is part of the planned platform. Our current proposal is one subscription per TIN with head office and an initial branch allowance; final branch inclusions and add-on fees will be confirmed before billing.
No such accreditation or certification is claimed on this page. M8X is designed to support preparation of invoice data and relevant documentation. Any certification, permits or provider accreditation must follow current BIR requirements. Consult the BIR's official advisories.
The starter package currently lists structured data and readiness preparation. Live EIS transmission, where applicable, is separate from ordinary invoicing functionality and depends on technical, regulatory and integration requirements. We will confirm any gateway offerings separately.
Yes. The M8X subscription architecture is being designed to support upgrades from eInvoice to BIR Compliance, Compliance Pro and Enterprise, subject to availability and the finalized package inclusions.
