    Lime Booking’s Plan To Become the One-Stop Shop

    Lime Booking is an advanced appointment booking app in a highly competitive market. To stand out, they needed to outwork and outsell the competition by offering real value—without cluttering their platform with unnecessary features.

    Once they covered essential functions like push notifications, online booking, payments, and timetables, they focused on adding value without overcomplicating the platform. Too many useless features confuse users and make them feel they’re paying for nothing, leading them to switch providers.

    That’s why they chose to integrate invoicing—a simple yet powerful addition that solves a real problem for SMEs. Manual invoicing is:

  • Expensive and time-consuming
  • Prone to errors and compliance risks
  • Now legally required as e-invoicing becomes mandatory in multiple countries
  •  

     

    Challenge With Choosing an Invoicing API

    Building an invoicing API in-house would have taken years, with complex country-specific regulations and high developer costs making it an impractical solution. Instead, integrating a third-party API was the smarter choice. However, they couldn’t just use any invoicing API—most are designed for single users in a single country.

    To ensure a seamless and scalable solution, the API had to meet key selection criteria:

  • Multitenancy – Allowed both Lime Booking and its clients to use the same invoicing system while maintaining data security and separation.
  • White-Labelling – Brand trust was essential. A third-party add-on might create doubts, but a white-labelled solution ensured invoicing felt like a native feature within Lime Booking.
  • Global Compliance – The API needed to support various country regulations, allowing clients in all Lime Booking markets to invoice compliantly.
  • Reliability & Credibility – A trusted provider with proven stability, regulatory expertise, and years of experience was crucial to avoid unreliable or outdated solutions.
  • Support for Upselling – Clients could onboard immediately, and Lime Booking had the flexibility to offer invoicing as part of their service package or upsell it separately—creating a new revenue stream.
