What is Sumit?
Sumit is an Israeli invoicing and accounting platform that integrates directly with WooCommerce. For Israeli businesses selling online, Sumit solves a critical compliance requirement by generating automatic invoices for every order in compliance with Israeli tax authority (Mas Hachnasa) regulations.
Unlike global invoicing tools, Sumit understands Israeli tax rules natively, handling VAT calculations, receipt types (kabala, hashbonit mas), and direct reporting to Israeli tax authorities without manual configuration.
Who Needs Sumit?
WooCommerce stores in Israel face a legal requirement to issue invoices for every transaction. Service providers including freelancers and agencies selling digital products or services need compliant invoicing systems. Businesses with recurring billing for monthly subscriptions or retainers benefit from automated invoice generation. Anyone requiring Israeli tax compliance for VAT, withholding tax, and annual reports will find Sumit essential.

Invoices generate automatically on order completion. The system supports all WooCommerce order statuses and syncs customer details from WooCommerce. Multi-currency support with ILS as the base currency handles international transactions while maintaining Israeli tax compliance.
Israeli Tax Compliance
Automatic VAT calculation at 17% eliminates manual math. Receipt types include Tax Invoice (hashbonit mas), Receipt (kabala), and Credit Notes. Digital signatures on invoices meet legal requirements. The platform reports directly to the Israeli tax authority and supports exempt businesses (osek patur).
Business Management

Financial reports including P&L and VAT reports prepare you for tax season. Multi-user access with role permissions lets teams collaborate securely.

Connect your Sumit account via API key, then configure invoice settings including business details, VAT, and document types. Test with a sample order before going live.
When Sumit Isn’t the Right Fit
On the downside, non-Israeli businesses won’t benefit since Sumit is built specifically for Israeli tax law. Very high-volume enterprise businesses may need a full ERP like Priority or SAP. Businesses not using WooCommerce should look elsewhere since Sumit works best with WooCommerce, while Shopify has its own solutions.
