In accordance with new Italian tax regulations, merchants using electronic payment systems must show a "logical link" between their payment systems (POS) and their electronic cash registers (Registratore Telematico or RT).
As Checkout SAS is a non-resident acquirer based in France, you will need to manually verify or enter these details in the Fatture e Corrispettivi portal to ensure your digital payments are correctly matched with your transmitted daily totals by April 20, 2026.
How to register the link
Your accountant (Commercialista) or authorized representative must perform these steps on the Italian Revenue Agency portal:
- Log in to the Fatture e Corrispettivi portal via SPID or CIE.
- Navigate to "Servizi per compilare i dati" > "Gestione POS-RT".
- The portal will ask for Acquirer Identification. Select "Soggetto Estero" (Foreign Entity) and enter the following details for Checkout SAS:
- Legal Name: Checkout SAS
- Address: 44-48 rue de Châteaudun, 75009 Paris, France
- VAT Number: FR02841033970
- Terminal Mapping: The portal will ask you for your Terminal ID. We have clarified that for online payments, your payment services provider can determine the unique reference. We recommend that you enter your Italian tax code (Codice Fiscale), followed by our entity name: Checkout SAS.
- Next, it will ask for your Contract ID. We recommend that you enter the entity ID for your Italian entity into this field.
- To finish, select the Matricola (Serial Number) of your Cash Register (RT) from the system list to finalize the association.
