Ledger Brief Take
This isn't really an invoicing tool for accountants — it's a full merchant-of-record service that handles the entire payment stack for software companies selling internationally. While it generates invoices as part of its commerce platform, practitioners would engage with FastSpring data as an input to their accounting systems rather than using it to bill their own clients.
