Key Features and Benefits:
Unified POS API across countries:
fiskaltrust.POS-API abstracts away country-specific fiscal rules into one coherent interface. You integrate once with the middleware, and the backend handles jurisdiction logic like signature creation, journaling, and audit log export per national format. This dramatically reduces time-to-market when launching in Austria, Germany, France, Spain, and more.
Open-source transparency:
The middleware is MIT-licensed. You can audit it, fork it, modify it, or run it under custom conditions. You aren’t building your POS system on a black box, and compliance-critical logic can be version-controlled alongside your application code.
Modular transaction lifecycle:
The bundle supports business case recording operations: order creation, payment allocation, signature generation, and receipt rendering. It supports integration of external PSPs and printing systems via pluggable adapters, allowing seamless extension into existing systems.
Flexible hosting:
You can host the middleware inside your app (embedded), deploy it as a Windows/Linux daemon, containerize it for Kubernetes, or use fiskaltrust-hosted instances. Switching between modes doesn’t require a rewrite — configuration-based deployment makes it production-flexible.
Offline fallback via IoT broker:
Local installations automatically provide a local MQTT-based IoT broker. When cloud access is down, your POS can still communicate with the middleware. Transactions are buffered and synced when connectivity returns, avoiding fiscal law violations due to outages.
Shared audit expertise:
fiskaltrust actively supports developers in integrating audit-compliant solutions. The community, documentation, and Academy provide proven patterns. In case of edge-case audits or questions from authorities, fiskaltrust assists with standardized procedures and log exports.
REST and RPC endpoints:
Choose between REST (stateless, JSON) for cloud-hosted services or RPC for in-process code-level calls. Ideal for various architectures: from modern serverless apps to legacy desktop systems. The API handles lifecycle events (order, pay, sign, journal) in strict order, with idempotent operations and deterministic output.

The fiskaltrust Documentation Platform

The fiskaltrust Documentation Platform functions as the main development platform for developers who use fiskaltrust’s freemium open-source middleware solution. The platform offers organized technical documentation which helps users implement fiscalization in their POS systems for Austria Germany and France and additional supported countries. The platform enables developers to follow legal requirements through its detailed explanations of middleware components and communication flows and region-specific compliance logic.
The platform operates at high speed while maintaining clarity through its automated pipeline-based updates of code samples and API references and integration guides. The platform provides an easy-to-use interface with advanced search functionality that enables users to locate necessary information whether they need basic or advanced configuration assistance.
