Why businesses in Portugal work with us
-
Portugal's growing tech scene competes for experienced developers, so SMEs often use an external team for defined projects.
-
Strict rules on invoicing software, including SAF-T, ATCUD codes and QR codes, mean business systems need careful integration with certified invoicing tools.
-
Portuguese customers expect local payment methods such as MB Way and Multibanco and interfaces written in European Portuguese.
Portuguese tourism and hospitality, retail and eCommerce, property, manufacturing and professional services businesses commonly need custom platforms and integrations.

What we build for Portugal businesses
Questions from Portugal
Can you invoice in euros?
Yes. We can invoice in euros, and the figure in the proposal is the figure on the invoice.
How is personal data protected when your team is outside the EU?
Pakistan has no EU adequacy decision, so any access to personal data is covered by standard contractual clauses in a data processing agreement. Live data stays hosted in the EU, and we use test data wherever possible.
Can your software issue invoices in Portugal?
Invoicing software in Portugal generally needs certification from the Tax Authority. Rather than issuing invoices directly, we usually connect your system to certified invoicing software through its API, and your accountant confirms the requirements.
Can you handle SAF-T, ATCUD and invoice QR codes?
Yes. Through a certified invoicing tool we can make sure invoices carry the ATCUD code and QR code and that the SAF-T (PT) data your accountant needs is available.
Can you add MB Way and Multibanco payments?
Yes. We can accept MB Way, Multibanco payment references, cards and SEPA Direct Debit through payment providers that support them.
Can you send e-invoices to Portuguese public bodies?
Yes. Suppliers to public bodies send structured e-invoices, and we can generate them in the required format or connect your system to an e-invoicing provider.
Can the application be in European Portuguese?
Yes. We build multilingual interfaces from the start, and your team or translator can supply European Portuguese text rather than Brazilian Portuguese.
Can you build to Portuguese accessibility requirements?
Yes. We design and test against WCAG 2.2 AA, which supports the European Accessibility Act as implemented in Portugal and the rules for public-sector websites and apps.
How do you handle cookie consent in Portugal?
We build consent banners that block non-essential cookies until the visitor agrees and make refusing as easy as accepting. Your lawyer confirms the wording under Portuguese law and CNPD guidance.
Can we use our own contract and NDA?
Yes. We sign an NDA before detailed discussions and can work from your contract or ours. You own the code, repositories and cloud accounts.
