Stripe Integration with Zoho Invoice – How to Connect Stripe with Zoho Invoice (Lithuania)?

Global creators, local rules

Digital creators operate globally — selling courses via Kajabi, publishing newsletters via Substack and building apps with Lovable, Replit and Cursor. In Lithuania, however, they must comply with local tax rules — from invoice formatting to VAT declarations. Zoho Invoice as a global platform together with Stripe offers a comprehensive invoicing and payment solution, supporting localisation in over 15 countries.

What is Stripe? Its role in the new economy

Stripe is the leading global payments platform. According to Stripe Annual Update 2024, Stripe processes over one trillion dollars annually. Stripe: Thinking Like a Civilization describes Stripe as the financial infrastructure of the internet. For Lithuanian entrepreneurs, Stripe offers card payments (Visa, Mastercard), SEPA transfers, Apple Pay, Google Pay and other European payment methods. The API is fully documented and enables automation of all payment flows. However, Stripe does not create invoices compliant with Lithuanian law.

Electronic invoicing: i.SAF / i.MAS

Zoho Invoice as a global platform has experience in e-invoicing (India and other countries). Zoho Corporation regularly expands support for new countries. Check Lithuanian functionality at zoho.com/invoice. Striptu.com can help fill any compliance gaps.

Summary

For digital product creators, freelancers and SaaS entrepreneurs, invoice automation is an essential part of business. Manual invoice creation for each payment is not only time-consuming but increases error risk. Connecting Stripe with a local accounting tool ensures every transaction is properly documented according to Lithuanian tax requirements.

Zoho Invoice is a global invoicing platform with native Stripe integration, REST API and a broad Zoho ecosystem. For Lithuanian entrepreneurs and creators, striptu.com ensures local compliance and data orchestration — integration in seven days at an affordable monthly price.
