Keep Discord and Moneybird updated automatically.
Many creators, communities and small studios run their daily work in Discord: clients, projects and coordination all pass through the server. The admin is then the part that stays out of sight. With this connector you run a slash command in a channel, for example /factuur Test BV 5 hours of editing. The Schakel bot reads the command and drafts the invoice in Moneybird, with the right contact, lines and VAT, so invoicing just happens in your server.
What travels across the link
Everything this connector moves between Discord and Moneybird, and how often.
-
A slash command becomes an invoice
You run a slash command with what should be on the invoice, or type it in plain language. The Schakel bot reads it and drafts an invoice in Moneybird.
-
Contact recognised or created
The customer name from your command is found in Moneybird as a contact or created, so the invoice sits with the right relation without you typing details.
-
Lines and VAT filled in
Quantities, descriptions and amounts come back as invoice lines, with your default VAT rate, so the draft in Moneybird is correct.
-
Confirmation in the channel, with roles
The bot posts a short confirmation with a link to the draft invoice, and only members with the role you assign can create an invoice, so it stays manageable.
What Discord to Moneybird saves you
- Invoice without leaving Discord, straight from a slash command.
- Contacts and VAT are filled in, so nobody retypes details.
- Everything lands as a draft in Moneybird, you stay in control.
- Roles decide who may invoice, so it stays manageable in your server.

Common questions
Is the Discord to Moneybird connector available?
Request this connector and get access. You let us know you want to link Discord to Moneybird, and we make sure you can get started. You hear from us within 24 hours.
Is the invoice sent immediately?
No, by default it lands as a draft in Moneybird so you can check it first. Sending right away is possible, but you turn that on yourself.
Can anyone in the server create invoices?
No. Only members with the role you assign and in the channels you designate can create an invoice, so it stays manageable.
Does this work with a slash command or a plain message?
Both. You can use a slash command or type in plain language what needs invoicing, whichever you prefer.
What if the command is unclear?
Then the bot asks a short question in the channel before anything is created, so no invoice with wrong details appears.
Can you connect Discord to Moneybird?
Yes. Schakel connects through the official APIs of Discord and Moneybird, so you install nothing on your own server and nothing travels outside those two parties.
Which VAT rate do my sales get in Moneybird?
The rate is set per line: 21%, 9% or 0%. Sales to Belgium and other EU countries get the rate of the destination country, ready for your OSS return.
Are commission and fees booked separately in Moneybird?
Yes. Commission, shipping and other fee types each land on their own ledger account in Moneybird, rather than in one lump sum, so your margin stays readable.
