CPX Holding and SpendConsole announced a strategic partnership on April 27, 2026, to launch the UAE e-invoicing platform—the UAE’s first sovereign, mandate-ready solution. The joint solution enables UAE public and private sector entities to meet the Ministry of Finance’s new e-invoicing regulations, which enter voluntary effect on July 1, 2026, before becoming mandatory in phases from 2027.
The UAE e-invoicing platform combines SpendConsole’s AI-powered finance automation and e-invoicing capabilities with CPX’s cybersecurity assurance, compliance reporting, secure data hosting, and continuous security operations center monitoring. The integrated solution ensures audit-ready processes and trusted digital exchanges across B2B and B2G transactions.
UAE’s e-invoicing mandate establishes a national foundation for real-time financial governance, standardized digital tax compliance, and secure data exchange between public and private sectors. The shift allows organizations to modernize accounts payable operations, strengthen internal controls, and adopt global best practices beyond basic compliance requirements.
Platform Features and Technical Infrastructure
The solution incorporates structured XML formats to improve efficiency, reduce manual errors, and strengthen tax compliance. The UAE e-invoicing platform is hosted on CPX’s Microsoft Azure tenant, ensuring scalability, robust security, and data sovereignty. As a certified Microsoft partner, CPX delivers integrated, future-ready security solutions through this infrastructure.
Beyond regulatory compliance, the collaboration supports the UAE’s AI and Digital Economy Strategy by accelerating enterprise adoption of artificial intelligence, strengthening national tax transparency, and reducing fraud risk and VAT leakage. The platform includes embedded payment and treasury capabilities, providing CFOs real-time visibility into cash flow and the ability to optimize working capital.
Business Impact and Financial Benefits
The partnership delivers measurable financial benefits to UAE-based finance teams through improved accuracy, reduced cycle times, enhanced compliance, and better working-capital management. Organizations gain tangible improvements in accounts payable operations while meeting regulatory requirements ahead of the mandatory compliance deadline.
“Secure, compliant and intelligent financial systems are essential to building confidence in the UAE’s digital economy and long-term national objectives. Through our collaboration with SpendConsole, we are delivering a solution that combines advanced cybersecurity with AI-driven finance automation,” said Hadi Anwar, CEO of CPX.

CPX Holding, a G42 company founded in 2022 and headquartered in Abu Dhabi, employs over 600 cyber and physical security specialists. SpendConsole is a global artificial intelligence-powered payables automation leader that serves complex enterprise environments across multiple sectors.
