What is a minimum monthly invoice?

Due to the rising costs of maintaining accounts in certain industries, and in accordance with Mollie’s User Agreement article 5.10, a minimum monthly invoice will be applied to customers who operate in certain industries and sectors.

 

Why is Mollie introducing a minimum monthly invoice?

Stricter regulatory requirements have increased the operational costs associated with maintaining accounts in specific industries. 

To avoid increasing our base prices across the board, we're implementing a minimum monthly invoice for businesses operating in these particular sectors to help us cover these increased costs while continuing to offer you the high-quality service you expect from Mollie.

 

Which industries are affected?

The minimum monthly invoice applies to customers operating in industries classified as “higher risk” by the financial services sector.

That doesn’t mean that your specific business is “high risk”, simply that the industry you operate in requires greater scrutiny when it comes to financial regulations.

If this applies to your business, you will receive a direct email notification from us informing the minimum amount.

 

How does a minimum monthly invoice work?

In practice, it’s very simple. For a minimum monthly amount of €50:

  • If your invoice amount is above €50 (excluding taxes), nothing changes.
  • If it drops below €50 (excluding taxes), we’ll automatically adjust it to meet the minimum/

For example:

  • January invoice: €64 – no adjustment needed
  • February invoice: €57 – no adjustment needed
  • March invoice: €46 – adjusted to €50

 

Closing your Mollie account

This minimum monthly invoice is a necessary measure for us to continue providing our services in certain industries. As such, it is not negotiable.

If you find that this change significantly impacts your business and you wish to explore alternatives, you always have the option to close your Mollie account. You can find more information on how to do this here: How do I close my account?
