Development update · October 2026

Verify before you pay.

TrustIBAN helps people examine invoice payment details before sending money. Our development platform already brings together invoice checks, verified company and IBAN records, fraud review and account privacy tools. Belgium is our starting point, with wider European coverage on the roadmap.

Illustration of the checking process. A match is a signal, not a payment guarantee.

Protect people and companies from invoice fraud.

Invoice fraud often happens when a real-looking invoice contains a fraudulent bank account. The development platform compares extracted invoice details with TrustIBAN company and IBAN records and fraud indicators. A result helps users spot a mismatch, investigate a warning and make a more informed payment decision. Participation is voluntary; ease of use and transparency guide development.

Core foundation

  • Check whether the invoice belongs to the subscription holder.
  • Extract invoice text and IBANs from supported PDF invoices.
  • Compare invoice data with verified TrustIBAN records.
  • Present a risk result, invoice history and review status.

Fraud intelligence

Fraud reports, a watchlist and a manual review queue give administrators tools to investigate suspicious payment details.

From invoice to a clearer decision.

The implemented development flow checks subscription access and approved recipient names, extracts supported PDF invoice data, compares IBAN records and records a result. Unsupported formats and ambiguous information need further review; image OCR and AI-assisted extraction remain roadmap work.

Five steps: submit a supported PDF, check recipient and access, extract invoice details, compare records, then review the result

Designed around data minimization.

Privacy work now includes account-scoped data exports, reviewed privacy requests, retention-policy tooling and guarded account closure. Erasure planning and partial execution have been tested in rollback scenarios; live erasure remains disabled. Retained billing records and outstanding external-data tasks are accounted for separately, so account closure does not imply that every record has been deleted.

A working foundation. A careful path to launch.

These milestones describe the development environment. TrustIBAN is still in development and is not yet presented as a publicly launched service.

Latest tested scope

Privacy & account data

Module 8 Revision 15 passed its recorded development checks: exports, request review, closure guards, retention and connected workflow testing. Live erasure remains disabled.

Next & future

Launch readiness & expansion

Finish erasure and external-data handling, complete launch acceptance, then extend extraction, countries and registry sources. AI assistance and Peppol integration remain planned.

Development results are not certification of regulatory compliance or a guarantee against fraud.

A warning deserves a closer look.

A discrepancy may be a typo, outdated company information or a genuine fraud signal. An unknown IBAN alone does not prove fraud. If something seems wrong, verify the payment details with the company using contact information you already trust.

Our commitments

  • Voluntary use and a practical checking experience.
  • Transparent results and review of uncertain cases.
  • Careful handling of personal information.
  • Help people and businesses respond to fraud sooner.

TrustIBAN is currently in development.
