Everything that matters about receipt management pricing in Pollegio
Delegate, digitalise or do it all yourself? Around receipt management in Pollegio, every SME draws its own line. The reference points below — federal law, cantonal practice and lessons from the field — help you place the cursor well.
Digitalising receipt management: what actually works
Artificial intelligence has changed the economics of receipt management: automatic invoice reading reaches recognition rates that make manual entry marginal, and posting suggestions learn from corrections. The accountant does not disappear — the job shifts from data entry to control and advice.
An SME in Pollegio that digitalises gains owner time first: less filing, fewer “where is that receipt?” questions, more attention to the trade — that is the real return of receipt management.
The Swiss legal frame for receipt management
In Switzerland, the duty to keep accounts stems from art. 957 ff. of the Code of Obligations. Legal entities (Sàrl, SA) and sole proprietorships with at least CHF 500,000 in revenue keep full accounts: balance sheet, income statement and notes. Below that threshold, a simplified record of income, expenses and assets is sufficient.
The law also settles the form: accounts may be kept in a national language or in English, on paper or electronically (art. 957a para. 5 CO). That pragmatism lets receipt management run entirely on digital tools — no paper binder is required.
Outsource receipt management or keep it in-house?
A good test before choosing: ask the fiduciary HOW it wants to receive the documents. A precise answer (formats, frequency, platform) says more than any brochure — including in Pollegio.
A business in Pollegio can combine the models: internal day-to-day entry, monthly external supervision, closing and taxes with the specialist — receipt management splits very well.
QR-bills and friction-free collections
Technically, two routes coexist: the classic IBAN with an optional reference, or the QR-IBAN which requires a structured 27-position QR reference. Only the second route makes matching truly automatic — every payment carries the exact identifier of its invoice.
For receipt management, the share of collections matched automatically is a metric worth watching: when it drops, it is almost always a matter of misused references.
Pollegio: what changes, what does not
Working with a fiduciary from Pollegio no longer depends on geography: the documents of a business in Pollegio are shared online, while the canton Ticino keeps its own deadlines for the tax return.
For a business in Pollegio, that means VAT returns identical to anywhere in Switzerland, but a tax return and family allowances governed by the canton Ticino.
Frequently asked questions
Does MyFiducia.ai work for a business based in Pollegio?
Yes: the platform runs online, the rules applied are federal (VAT, CO, AHV), and the file can be shared with any fiduciary. A business in Pollegio manages its documents, VAT and exports exactly as anywhere in Switzerland.
Do you need a fiduciary for receipt management, or can you do it yourself?
Both are defensible. Below CHF 500,000 of revenue, a sole proprietorship may keep simplified accounts itself. As soon as payroll, VAT and a closing with tax stakes are involved, professional support prevents mistakes that cost more than the fees. With a shared platform, the fiduciary does not even need to be in Pollegio.
When must a business register for VAT?
As soon as its worldwide annual turnover reaches CHF 100,000 (CHF 250,000 for non-profit sports or cultural associations). Below that, voluntary registration remains possible and often makes sense to reclaim input VAT on investments. The threshold is federal: it applies in Pollegio as everywhere in Switzerland.
What is simplified bookkeeping and who can use it?
Sole proprietorships and partnerships under CHF 500,000 of revenue may limit themselves to recording income, expenses and assets (art. 957 para. 2 CO). Once over the threshold — or upon founding a Sàrl or an SA — full accounts with balance sheet, income statement and notes become mandatory. The CHF 500,000 threshold is assessed the same way in Pollegio.
