Why banking in TWT Accounting
Your bank statement finds its invoices and supplier invoices, and what stays open waits for your decision, not for a search.
The payment proposal knows the last day each supplier invoice can be paid without losing its cash discount.
A supplier invoice naming a new bank account is flagged, and a payment run pays only bank accounts somebody has confirmed.
Features
With banking in TWT Accounting you read your bank statement, match payments, keep your open items current and prepare your supplier payments. All features clearly organised in one place.
DashboardDashboard
What needs doing today and the figures behind it, cut to your package: invoices, supplier invoices awaiting approval, hours and projects, or the books. Plus a guided first-run checklist.
SalesE-Invoice
E-invoices to the German standard: generate, convert, read and validate ZUGFeRD and XRechnung against EN 16931.
SalesCustomers
Buyer master data including VAT ID, flowing straight into the e-invoice as BT-48.
PurchasingIncoming invoices
Receive, check and approve your suppliers’ invoices — a photograph, a PDF or an XRechnung, all in the same inbox. Being able to receive them has been obligatory since 2025; issuing them only from 2027.
PurchasingSuppliers
Your creditors with their account mapping and every bank account they have ever invoiced from — what makes the changed-IBAN warning possible.
AccountingAccounting settings
Profit determination (balance sheet or EÜR), the VAT scheme (Soll- or Istversteuerung under § 20 UStG), the fiscal year and the chart of accounts. Set once, and every posting and report follows them.
AccountingChart of accounts
The complete DATEV SKR03 and SKR04 chart of accounts. The revenue account you pick decides both the VAT rate and the EN 16931 category.
AccountingBookkeeping
Every document becomes a double-entry booking. The VAT return, the open items list and a DATEV posting batch all fall out of the journal.
AccountingELSTER
The advance VAT return and the income surplus calculation (Anlage EÜR with its asset register AVEÜR) from your bookings: calculated, checked twice and validated with ELSTER's own library, with the protocol and a complete history.
AccountingOpen Items
Receivables and payables in one working list: filter the way accountants expect, spread one bank transfer across several invoices, offset credits, write off cent differences with the correct VAT adjustment.
AccountingPayments
The payment proposal knows the last day a cash discount can still be taken; a selection becomes a payment run with separate approval and a SEPA file (pain.001) for your bank.
AccountingBanking
Import CAMT.053, MT940 or CSV from your bank; a matching transaction marks the invoice paid and settles the booking behind it.
AccountingAssets
Capitalise what you buy and let it depreciate itself. Straight line or declining, GWG and Sammelposten included, with the asset movement schedule your adviser asks for at year end.
AccountingCash book
Cash recorded the way cash behaves: written forward, never edited, and never below zero. With cash counts and the cash report, and with bookkeeping one-click posting into the journal.
ReportsReports
Business analysis (DATEV form 01), P&L/cash-basis, trial balance with account ledger, VAT return with box numbers, revenue, payment behaviour, order backlog, cash flow, cash discount and per-partner account statements — as CSV, PDF or print view.
DocumentsDocuments by email
Your own address for supplier invoices. Hand it out, or forward your existing mailbox to it — what arrives is read, checked and approved like a document you uploaded. With a sender list, format and size limits, and a log that names the refused messages too, so no supplier is left sending into nothing.
AdministrationCompanies
Full legal profile: register data, tax numbers, banking, branding and § 19 UStG small-business mode.
AdministrationUser Management
Invitations, access levels, per-user permission overrides and ownership transfer.
AdministrationTax advisor
Who, besides your own people, may reach your data. A practice asks, you decide, and you can withdraw the access at any time — your own users are untouched.
AdministrationImport data
Switch without retyping: customers, suppliers, the catalogue and your open items from a CSV file, as sevdesk, Lexware Office, Papierkram and Excel export them. Semicolons, umlauts and German numbers are recognised and the columns map themselves — with a dry run first and all-or-nothing on the way in.
AdministrationTwo-factor requirement
Whether a second factor stays voluntary, is required of everyone, or only of the access levels that can move money. Setting one up stays on each person’s own profile, and that page stays reachable so nobody is locked away from the requirement they have to meet.
AdministrationBilling
Plan and single-module subscriptions paid by card — the payment itself switches the module on.
AdministrationTWT invoices
Every invoice from TWT in one place, across all modules, with the payment status per module and each invoice as a PDF.
AdministrationCancellation
Contract, end of term and cancellation in one place. Paid time stays usable to the end of the period, and the cancellation can be withdrawn until then.
AdministrationAudit Logs
21 action types across 21 entity types, filterable and CSV-exportable, surviving deletion.
AdministrationGoBD export
The tax-audit data handover: journal, booking lines, master data, documents, payments, assets and the hash-chained audit log in one ZIP with an index.xml that IDEA-style audit software imports directly.
AdministrationSupport
Help from inside the product: ask a question, attach a screenshot, read the answer in the same thread. Each person sees only their own requests.
AdministrationNotifications
Where the product writes to: e-mail, Telegram or WhatsApp — one set for the company, and one of their own for each person. With a test message, so a wrong number is caught at once instead of staying silent.

Who it is for
Customer payments, material suppliers and the tax office on one statement, each movement in its place.
Who has paid and who has not, without going through the statement line by line.
One person imports the statement, one confirms the payments, one approves the payment run.
Your own bank statement read and matched, without a spreadsheet beside it.
Payments matched before your tax adviser asks, and the books handed over as a DATEV export.
Requirements
TWT Accounting supports you with the requirements for payments and bookkeeping in Germany.
The GoBD require every step to be traceable. Every statement import, every match, every confirmation and every payment run is recorded in the activity log with the person and the time.
A small difference written off corrects the VAT in proportion, as § 17 UStG requires, and the booking is locked at once.
Since 2025 every business in Germany must be able to receive e-invoices. XRechnung and ZUGFeRD arrive in your inbox, checked against EN 16931.
The GoBD export gives the tax auditor your journal, your documents and your payments in the tax authority's own format, with its index.
Banking in TWT Accounting provides functions for proper bookkeeping. The tax obligations of your business remain yours; when in doubt, ask your tax adviser.
Devices
Banking runs in your browser on every computer and tablet, and on the phone in the TWT Accounting app for Android.

TWT Banking has no app of its own: on the phone it is the TWT Accounting app for Android, with the bank movements to confirm, the open items and the day's tasks. The app for iPhone and iPad is in preparation.

In the browser, with the whole portal: the bank statement, the open items and the payment proposal.

On your computer or laptop, with nothing to install.

The matching in detail, the reports, the supplier invoices before anybody pays them and the rights of every single person.
Import what your online banking exports — CAMT.053, MT940 or a German CSV. A transaction whose amount and invoice number agree is matched automatically; confirming it marks the invoice paid and settles the booking behind it, which clears it from the open items.

Ten reports on two bases — booked entries and issued invoices. Every header states what the numbers rest on, and every export carries it along.

Being able to receive e-invoices has been obligatory for every German business since January 2025 — issuing them only from 2027. It is also the side the market handles worst. Here every arriving invoice is read, checked and approved before anybody pays it.

More than 130 permission keys, organised as a module → component → action tree. Every member starts with the rights of their role; on top of it you grant or withhold single rights for exactly that person, and a withheld right always wins.

FAQ
There is no separate banking price. Banking is part of TWT Accounting, and the button on this page starts TWT Accounting with 30 days to test — cancel within them and you pay nothing; the pricing page shows its monthly price. Assembled on its own, banking would cost more than TWT Accounting, which also carries the bookkeeping and the reports.
Export it from your online banking as CAMT.053, MT940 or CSV and upload it. Movements that are already there are skipped, so a statement uploaded twice counts once.
Not yet. You upload the file your online banking exports. Automatic retrieval via FinTS is in preparation.
The matcher weighs the invoice number in the reference, the payer's IBAN or name, the amount and other references such as your customer number. A payment it is sure of is matched on its own; when two invoices fit equally well, it leaves the choice to you.
The invoice counts as paid and the booking behind it is settled, so it leaves the open items. Money paid beyond the bill stays with the customer as a credit, to offset against another invoice or to record as refunded.
It prepares the payment. The payment proposal orders your open supplier invoices by the last day the cash discount still counts, your selection becomes a payment run, and once somebody with the right approves it, the run is exported as a SEPA file (pain.001) for you to upload to your online banking.
When a supplier invoice names a bank account not known for that supplier, the intake flags it. A payment run pays only confirmed bank accounts, and a supplier with a payment block is not paid at all.
Yes. Importing statements, matching payments and approving a payment run are separate rights, granted or withheld for each person.
Banking comes with TWT Accounting: 30 days to test — cancel within them and you pay nothing. Then cancel monthly, with no setup fee. Your data stays on our own servers in Germany.
