FRANKFURT, Germany & WILDPOLDSRIED, Germany--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Billbee, a portfolio company of funds advised by Bregal Unternehmerkapital ("BU") has acquired German software provider amaZervice. Through the recent partnership with amaZervice, Billbee strengthens its expertise in VAT compliance and invoicing and realizes new valuable synergies through an extended product offering with cross selling potential and additional go-to-market value creation opportunities.
Headquartered in Wildpoldsried, Germany, amaZervice is a specialist niche provider of invoicing and VAT compliance software with a particular focus on Amazon Marketplace sellers. The company's software-as-a-service offering, Amainvoice, automatically imports sales data from Amazon Marketplace sellers and generates all the necessary digital documents for invoicing, financial accounting and international VAT compliance. amaZervices's software solution is standardised with a very fast implementation and installation time. Moreover, the company offers a range of services related to the use of its software, such as historical analysis of Amazon data for VAT compliance. Founded in 2010, amaZervice now serves more than 2,500 customers, primarily Amazon merchants with tax domicile in Germany, across a variety of industries and categories.
At the beginning of November 2023, BU laid the foundation for the new e-commerce software group with the majority acquisition of the SaaS multi-channel solution provider Billbee GmbH, followed by the acquisition of Channel Pilot Solutions GmbH, a leading provider of cloud-based software for product feed management and marketplace connectivity. Both companies have strong positions and a solid customer base in their respective markets. With amaZervice becoming part of Billbee, the e-commerce software group will continue to grow through further acquisitions and position itself as a market leader in the ever-growing field of online retailing.
"We are delighted to be working with BU, Billbee and the broader E-Commerce Software Group and see them as ideal partners to support our growth and presence in the market", said Andreas Honisch, CEO of amaZervice, who will remain invested in the company together with the other existing shareholders after the transaction. "The partnership allows us to join forces with leading players in the field of e-commerce enablement and marketplace connectivity and to further develop and expand our product portfolio.”
"amaZervice has developed one of the market-leading e-commerce VAT software solutions and has built up a large and diversified e-commerce customer base in the DACH region. This is a highly complementary addition for Billbee and will make a valuable contribution to continuing Billbee’s success story”, adds Norbert Heller, Director at BU.
