ZATCA Phase 2
Coverage counts what each App Store listing names. Every feature, checked off app by app, is in Shoplist.
See every featureSaudi merchants must report every sale to ZATCA as a signed Phase 2 e-invoice with a QR code, and doing this by hand is slow and easy to get wrong. Mu'tamad handles it automatically: when an order is paid, it creates a compliant tax invoice, signs it, reports it to ZATCA, and attaches the QR code to the order. Refunds become matching credit notes.
