2. How it works

Compliance is an automated 3-step flow between your software, the Viva Terminal, and the Tax Authority.

  1. Send sales data — your system triggers the transaction via your chosen API.
  2. Viva validates & signs — we handle real-time government reporting (e.g. AADE / myDATA).
  3. Receive compliant result — you get the legal signature or QR code to store and print.

3. ISV partner checklist

Complete these before you begin testing your integration.

  • Create a demo account — set up a Demo Merchant Account to act as your test store.
  • Enable fiscal — send Viva your Merchant ID and Tax ID (AFM) so we can enable the fiscal flags on your testing account.
  • Download the appViva Terminal (Demo). iOS partners: request a TestFlight build from your contact.
  • Run the initial sync — send one Start Receipt request per merchant to initialize the tax connection.
