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 / monthKudTaxsevDesk
100€19not 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.

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

Export to DATEV, Lexware, sevDesk, BMD, SAP and more – as a posting batch with tax keys and document links, GoBD-aligned.

Start for nothing

Free for good up to 25 orders a month, no payment details. Tax advisors work directly in the account, per client.
