Book NowAs the UAE moves toward mandatory e-invoicing, businesses with revenue of AED 50 million or more must appoint an Accredited Service Provider (ASP) before 30 October 2026 to avoid penalties for non-compliance. Choosing the wrong ASP, or delaying the decision, can lead to rushed implementation, integration failures, and serious disruptions to finance operations.
For businesses exploring Microvista alternatives for UAE e-invoicing, this blog explains the key criteria for selecting a UAE e-invoicing ASP, why those criteria matter for go-live success, and where Flick Network stands out as a reliable, FTA-approved alternative.
Microvista Technologies is a compliance and tax technology company incorporated in Ahmedabad, India in 2016. It builds GST software, XBRL filing tools, and e-invoicing solutions across India, Malaysia, Mauritius, and the UAE. Its UAE e-invoicing product supports the PINT-AE format and the Peppol 5-corner model, with ERP integration and pre-validation capabilities for FTA compliance.
Microvista Technologies LLC has been included in the UAE Ministry of Finance pre-approved e-invoicing service provider list. In the UAE, however, businesses still evaluate alternatives because compliance requirements, data residency rules, and rollout timelines require close alignment with expectations defined by the Ministry of Finance.
Most businesses follow a consistent set of evaluation criteria when selecting a UAE e-invoicing ASP:
Accreditation status under the UAE Ministry of Finance
Experience in e-invoicing services and Peppol participation
Integration capability with ERP and accounting systems
Data storage aligned with UAE regulatory requirements
System capability to handle high transaction volumes
Support model with clearly defined response timelines
If any of these areas are weak, it can delay compliance, make implementation harder, or cause issues after go-live. That is why businesses should choose providers that meet all key requirements clearly and consistently.
Flick Network is a strong option for businesses looking for compliance support, global coverage, and complete system control through a single platform. Founded in 2016, the company started with GST reconciliation solutions and now has more than 10 years of experience in e-invoicing and tax automation across 50+ countries. It serves over 1,000 enterprise clients, including Honda, Bosch, Bureau Veritas, TotalEnergies, Nesto, Wade Adams, Ali & Sons, and MAN Energy Solutions.
Flick Network is one of the first approved Accredited e-invoicing Service Providers in the UAE by the Ministry of Finance (MoF) and the Federal Tax Authority (FTA), and is listed on the EmaraTax portal as an ASP. It appears in the official list of Accredited Service Providers released by the UAE Ministry of Finance in April 2026, following its earlier inclusion in pre-approved listings published in September 2025.
The company aligned its systems with UAE e-invoicing requirements after the initial announcement in July 2023, giving it one of the longest preparation periods among active ASPs. Flick Network L.L.C-FZ is based in Dubai at Floor 18, Sheikh Rashid Tower, World Trade Center, with direct familiarity with Emirate-specific regulatory requirements and business practices.
Flick Network provides e-invoicing services across more than 50 countries, including Saudi Arabia, UAE, Malaysia, Denmark, Singapore, Belgium, Poland, Germany, Oman, and Spain. The platform supports both Peppol and non-Peppol e-invoicing models across clearance, reporting, and interoperability requirements, which covers businesses managing transactions under different mandate types.
The company has been a Peppol-certified Access Point and Service Metadata Publisher for more than three years, with clients already operating in Belgium, Germany, Malaysia, and Denmark. Since Flick functions as both the AP and SMP, invoice data is not routed through third-party providers within the Peppol network.
Flick Network provides a fully in-house developed e-invoicing platform, which gives direct control over system updates, regulatory changes, and feature improvements without reliance on external vendors. The system handles invoice generation, validation, real-time exchange, and submission to the FTA, along with audit logs, error handling, configurable workflows, role-based access control, and automated notifications.
Any updates from the FTA, whether related to XML schema or functional requirements, are covered at no additional cost to clients. For businesses that need on-premise deployment, Flick also provides a secure on-premise setup for complete control over data processing and archival.
Flick Network integrates with major ERP and accounting systems including SAP, Oracle, Microsoft Dynamics, Infor, and IFS, along with AP/AR platforms such as Coupa and Ariba. Integration methods include REST/SOAP APIs, SFTP, DB Link, EDIs, bulk file uploads, webhooks, and database connections, which allows businesses to connect existing systems without replacing them.
A dedicated in-house integration team manages every deployment from kickoff to go-live, with most implementations completed within days rather than weeks. A standalone dashboard for manual invoicing is also available for businesses that need it alongside their ERP workflow.
All UAE e-invoicing data is stored within the UAE on locally hosted cloud servers, in line with MoF and FTA data residency requirements. The platform holds SOC 2 Type II, ISO 27001, GDPR, and VAPT certifications, with independently audited controls for system availability, security, and data protection.
Every document passes through 200+ internal data validation checks to minimise failures before submission. Security measures include AES-256 encryption at rest and TLS 1.3 for data in transit, along with role-based access control, multi-factor authentication, continuous monitoring, audit logging, and defined incident response processes.
Flick Network supports high transaction volumes and can process up to 25,000 transactions per second, with each document processed internally in under 0.3 seconds. The platform is built to handle enterprise-scale operations without performance degradation during peak periods.
It scales across business growth, additional entities, and new geographies without requiring significant system changes, making it a practical choice for large businesses managing invoice volumes across multiple regions simultaneously.
Flick Network provides 24/7 support through phone, email, chat, and a ticketing platform, backed by a dedicated UAE-based support team. Defined response timelines include one hour for critical issues, three hours for major issues, and six hours for minor issues.
Service availability is guaranteed at 99.99 percent uptime, supporting continuous operations across finance workflows. A UAE-based team means businesses get assistance from people who understand local regulatory requirements, not a generic global helpdesk operating in a different time zone.
Flick Network follows a subscription-based pricing model based on transaction volume, with optional one-time onboarding and ERP integration costs depending on implementation requirements. All pricing details are clearly outlined in the proposal and Master Services Agreement.
There are no hidden fees or additional charges beyond the agreed scope. Businesses get full visibility into total cost from the outset, which removes uncertainty from budget planning before and after go-live.
Beyond core e-invoicing, Flick Network provides reporting and analytics, Order-to-Cash, Procure-to-Pay, Budget-to-Reconcile, and Indirect Tax compliance capabilities. The reconciliation module automates AP/AR and tax report reconciliation, detects discrepancies, and flags unmatched entries across ERP and e-invoicing data.
Additional features include 3-way matching for AP invoices to prevent duplicates, PINT AE to PDF conversion for audit-ready documentation, an email notification system for errors and status updates, customer communication tools that automatically send invoices to recipients not connected to the Peppol network, SSO integration for dashboard access, and a report scheduler that automatically delivers periodic reports via email or secure storage.
Microvista Technologies is a tax and compliance software company founded in 2016 in Ahmedabad, India. Its products include GST software, XBRL reporting, e-invoicing, e-way bill management, and digital signature solutions. The company has expanded its e-invoicing services to Malaysia, Mauritius, and the UAE, and its UAE entity, Microvista Technologies LLC, is listed as a pre-approved e-invoicing service provider by the UAE Ministry of Finance.
For the UAE market, Microvista supports the PINT AE format, the Peppol 5-corner model, ERP integration without major system changes, bulk invoice generation, and invoice pre-validation before submission. The company’s main operations and product development are based in India, while its UAE presence is relatively newer compared to providers that are more established locally.
The platform does not clearly specify details such as support SLAs, uptime guarantees, or pricing. Microvista also offers multiple tax and compliance products, with e-invoicing being one component of a broader compliance suite.

Why Businesses Choose Flick Network Over Other UAE E-Invoicing Providers
Businesses choosing an ASP for UAE e-invoicing usually look for a few key things: an officially accredited provider with a UAE-registered entity, local data storage, a dedicated in-house integration team, and a platform built specifically for e-invoicing. Flick Network provides all of these directly, without depending on subcontractors or third-party platforms. The company also includes future FTA regulatory updates after go-live at no extra cost.
Implementation speed and delivery experience are also major factors for businesses preparing for UAE e-invoicing compliance. Flick Network’s in-house integration team has experience delivering deployments within days, with a structured onboarding process already tested across active UAE client integrations. With more than 1,000 enterprise clients across 50+ countries, the company follows a structured implementation methodology focused on smooth deployment, faster go-live timelines, and operational stability from day one.
Microvista is a capable platform with a broad compliance product portfolio, but for businesses that need a UAE-focused, FTA-approved e-invoicing solution with local data hosting, clearly defined SLAs, an in-house integration team, and a platform built specifically for compliance, Flick Network is the stronger option. It covers everything from invoice creation and FTA submission to AP/AR reconciliation, 3-way matching, and full finance process support in one unified platform.
With the 30 October 2026 ASP appointment deadline approaching, businesses should leave enough time for ERP integration, testing, UAT, and go-live preparation. Contact Flick Network at sales@flick.network to review your setup and begin implementation ahead of the deadline.
