Trendyol e-Faturam Integration: Automated Invoicing and GİB Compliance
Issuing an e-Fatura or e-Arşiv invoice for every sale on Trendyol is a legal requirement — and it directly affects your Trendyol Seller Score. In this guide we explain step by step where “trendyol faturam” actually is, how to issue the e-invoice for your sales and how to automate the entire process.
Quick summary: Trendyol does not issue customer invoices on your behalf. For every order, you must issue an e-Fatura (corporate/VKN) or e-Arşiv (individual/TCKN) invoice and upload it to the order within 24 hours of shipping. The manual route is the GİB Portal (free but one by one); the right route for a growing seller is automation: as soon as an order comes in, Zunapro selects the right invoice type, issues it and uploads it to Trendyol.
First, let's be clear: which one is “Trendyol faturam”?
When sellers search for “trendyol faturam”, they often mean two different documents. It is critical not to mix them up:
| Document | Who issues it? | Where to find it / what to do? |
|---|---|---|
| The invoice Trendyol issues to you (commission, service, advertising fees) | Trendyol | Downloaded as PDF from Trendyol Seller Panel → Finance → Current Account / Payouts. You record these invoices as expenses in your accounting. |
| The sales invoice you issue to the customer (e-Fatura / e-Arşiv) | You (the seller) | Trendyol does not issue it. It is issued via the GİB Portal or an integrator and uploaded to the order. This is the main subject of this guide. |
In short: your expense invoice (Trendyol → you) is ready in the panel; your sales invoice (you → customer), however, must be issued by you for every order. The real workload and penalty risk lie in the second one.
Is e-invoicing mandatory on Trendyol? Impact on your score
Yes. Every taxpayer selling on Trendyol must issue a legal sales document (e-Fatura or e-Arşiv) for every order. Moreover, this is not just a legal obligation; it is a component of the Trendyol Seller Score:
- The invoice is expected to be uploaded to the order within 24 hours of shipping confirmation.
- Delays of more than 48 hours lead to a low-performance warning.
- Persistently late invoices can lead to loss of the Buy Box and listing restrictions.
In other words, invoicing is not just accounting — it is directly a matter of sales and visibility.
Should you issue an e-Fatura or an e-Arşiv invoice?
Both are mandatory tools; the buyer determines which one is issued:
| e-Fatura | e-Arşiv invoice | |
|---|---|---|
| For whom? | Corporate buyer purchasing with a VKN and registered for e-Fatura | End consumer with a TCKN or a buyer not registered for e-Fatura |
| How is it delivered? | Via the GİB system to the buyer's mailbox | Email/SMS to the buyer; the record is reported to GİB |
| Share on Trendyol | Small minority | The vast majority of orders (~90%+) |
Because Zunapro selects the right type automatically from the buyer's VKN/TCKN, the “I issued the wrong document” error disappears.
How do you issue a Trendyol e-invoice? 2 ways
Way 1 — GİB Portal (manual, free)
GİB's e-Belge portal is free. For each order you enter the buyer details, product, amount and VAT one by one, create the invoice, download the PDF and upload it to the Trendyol order. It works for very small sellers with fewer than 30–50 invoices a month; but as order volume grows, the cost in time and errors multiplies.
Way 2 — Automation (integrator + Zunapro)
A GİB private integrator (Logo, Mikro, Uyumsoft, Paraşüt, İzibiz, etc.) legally generates the invoice; Zunapro bridges Trendyol and this integrator: as soon as an order comes in, the invoice is created automatically, the right type is selected, it is transmitted to GİB and uploaded to the Trendyol order. Manual entry, delays and damage to your score are eliminated.
| Comparison | GİB Portal (manual) | Zunapro automation |
|---|---|---|
| Time per invoice | Minutes (manual entry) | Automatic (no manual entry) |
| Correct type (e-Fatura/e-Arşiv) | Manual decision | Automatic from VKN/TCKN |
| Upload to Trendyol | Manual | Automatic |
| Risk to score / Buy Box | High (delays) | Low |
| Multiple stores / multiple marketplaces | Separate work for each | From a single panel |
Let your invoices issue themselves
Connect your Trendyol orders to Zunapro; for every sale the right invoice is issued automatically and uploaded to Trendyol. Both your score and your time are protected.
VAT rates and shipping fees
In Turkey, VAT is category-based: 20% standard, 10% reduced (some food/textile/health items), 1% low (basic food, books, newspapers). Points to watch on the invoice:
- Matching the product to the correct VAT rate (a wrong rate means a correction later).
- Reflecting campaigns/discounts in VAT proportionally.
- The shipping fee is usually entered as a separate line with 20% VAT.
Zunapro maps the Trendyol category tree to VAT rates; when an order arrives, product → category → rate is assigned automatically.
Returns and invoice cancellation
Because return rates on Trendyol are high, the cancellation/return process is critical:
- e-Arşiv: can be cancelled within 8 days; if that period has passed, a return invoice or an expense voucher (gider pusulası) is issued.
- e-Fatura: unilateral cancellation within 8 days; after that, the buyer's approval (rejection/response invoice) is required.
When a return approval arrives from Trendyol, Zunapro checks the date window and automatically triggers the right process (cancellation or return invoice).
Choosing an integrator: which one suits whom?
| Integrator | Best-fit profile |
|---|---|
| Paraşüt / İzibiz | SMEs and boutique sellers; affordable monthly cost, works well with accountants |
| Logo / Mikro | High volume, corporate structure with ERP, need for e-Defter (e-ledger) |
| Uyumsoft | Mid-to-large sellers wanting customization flexibility |
| Foriba / Veriban | High invoice volume, corporate SLA |
If you already have an integrator, Zunapro connects to it; if not, we recommend an SME-friendly option suited to your profile. Even if you change integrators, your series and sequence numbers continue from where they left off, and past records remain stored at GİB.
How does Trendyol e-invoice automation with Zunapro work?
- You connect your Trendyol Seller account (store ID + API credentials) to Zunapro.
- You define your e-invoice integrator (or we recommend one).
- As soon as an order comes in, Zunapro generates the invoice, selects the right type and calculates VAT.
- The invoice is transmitted to GİB and uploaded automatically to the Trendyol order.
- If a return comes in, the cancellation/return process runs automatically; everything is reported in a single panel.
The same setup works for Hepsiburada, N11, Amazon and your other marketplaces — multiple stores and multiple marketplaces are managed from one place.

Where is my Trendyol invoice ("faturam") and how do I find it?
There are two separate invoices. The commission/service invoices Trendyol issues to you are downloaded from Seller Panel → Finance → Current Account/Payouts. The sales invoice (e-Fatura/e-Arşiv) you must issue to your customer, however, is not issued by Trendyol — you issue it and upload it to the order. Zunapro does this automatically for every order.
Is e-invoicing mandatory on Trendyol?
Yes, a legal document (e-Fatura or e-Arşiv) is mandatory for every order. In addition, invoice upload time affects the Trendyol Seller Score; the invoice is expected to be uploaded within 24 hours of shipping.
Should I issue an e-Fatura or an e-Arşiv invoice?
An e-Fatura is issued to a corporate buyer with a VKN registered for e-Fatura, and an e-Arşiv invoice to an end consumer with a TCKN. Most Trendyol orders are e-Arşiv. Zunapro automatically selects the right type from the VKN/TCKN.
Why automation when the GİB Portal is free?
The GİB Portal is free but manual; each invoice is entered one by one. For a seller receiving dozens of orders a day, the time cost and the risk of delays grow. Automation removes the manual steps from the process and protects your score.
How do I cancel the invoice for returns?
e-Arşiv: cancellation within 8 days; after that, a return invoice. e-Fatura: unilateral cancellation within 8 days; after that, the buyer's approval is required. Zunapro automatically triggers the right process when a return is approved.
Which integrators do you work with?
We are compatible with common GİB private integrators such as Logo, Mikro, Uyumsoft, Foriba/SOVOS, Veriban, Paraşüt and İzibiz. We connect to your existing integrator or recommend a solution suited to your profile.
