Result
Not either/or: sevDesk keeps the books, KudTax prepares the e-commerce data in front of it – payouts, fees, refunds and documents from every channel reconciled and handed over as a posting batch. KudTax has a sevDesk integration.
KudTax does not necessarily replace sevDesk: sevDesk is also available as an integration inside KudTax. To the sevDesk integration

Pricing compared
Net monthly prices at three typical volumes. Where a provider does not bill by orders, the derivation is given below – and the table says “not stated” instead of guessing.
| Orders / month | KudTax | sevDesk |
|---|---|---|
| 100 | €19 | not stated |
| 500 | €49 | not stated |
| 1,000 | €99 | not stated |
| € / month · Prices plus VAT | ||
- KudTax
- KudTax: €0 up to 25, €19 up to 100, €49 up to 500, €99 up to 1,000, €129 up to 2,000, €149 up to 3,000 orders a month; above that Enterprise on request. Every feature in every tier, plus VAT.
- sevDesk
- Independent of order volume: Rechnung €11.90, Buchhaltung €25.90, Buchhaltung Pro €34.90 on the monthly term (12/24 months cheaper, currently up to 50% off). Amazon, eBay or Etsy only come in through Billbee and other partners with their own price – no per-order price can be formed.
- What the price does not include
- Advertised prices require a 24-month term (e.g. €4.45 instead of €11.90).
- Extra user €5.90, premium layouts €3.90, time tracking €4.90, inventory €19.90 per month.
- Marketplaces only via partners such as Billbee with their own price.
What sevDesk does well
Complete bookkeeping including VAT returns to ELSTER, P&L and e-invoicing – a target system KudTax exports into.
AI document capture and an AI assistant inside the software.
Free tier and a very low entry price.
Where sevDesk hits its limits
No native marketplace or payment-provider connection; Amazon/eBay only via Billbee, Stripe via miraclesync, PayPal and Klarna not listed.
12- and 24-month plans auto-renew for 12 months.
API only on the Pro plan.
KudTax
What KudTax does differently
One plan, every feature
No module kit: marketplaces, payment providers, OSS reporting, e-invoicing and AI matching are included in every tier. The price depends on order volume alone.
Every channel in one reconciliation
60+ marketplaces, shops, payment providers and invoicing tools come together in one cockpit – payouts, fees and refunds are matched against documents.
Booking-ready for your target system
DATEV EXTF exports and other file formats. Agree the required format, tax keys and document references with your accountant.
Start for nothing
Free for good up to 25 orders a month, no payment details. Tax advisors work directly in the account, per client.
