How it works
Two flows, one platform.
Depending on which Gatebold product you use, the flow differs - but the promise stays the same: no custom code, no integrator, end-to-end visibility.

Why Gatebold exists
Connecting Magento to a structured B2B flow should not be an integration project.
Every flow (e-procurement, e-invoicing, etc.) ends up as custom development: specific code, complex debugging, Magento dependencies. Gatebold builds a Magento-native connector for each flow.
For e-invoicing
Gatebold E-Invoice Gateway
The French 2026/2027 DGFiP reform requires going through an Approved Platform (PA). Without Gatebold, you choose between a heavy accounting ERP, custom Magento development, or a non-specialized tool.
- Magento-native connector - no code in the storefront, mapping is configured in the Gatebold platform.
- Designed for multi-PA - Gatebold's architecture is built to connect to the Approved Platform of your choice. Switch PAs without changing Magento.
- 3 DGFiP flows covered - e-invoicing, e-reporting transactions and payments, in a single subscription.
- Sandbox + observability - test before production, track every invoice live in the Magento Sales grid.
For B2B e-procurement
Gatebold E-Procurement Gateway
Every enterprise buyer (Ariba, Coupa, Oracle, Jaggaer, etc.) imposes its own cXML/OCI format. Without Gatebold, it's a custom integration project per buyer, redone for every new one.
- Native PunchOut cXML and OCI - protocols handled by the platform, no protocol logic in your Magento.
- Multi-buyer without code - 30 buyers = 30 configurations, each with its own adapted mapping.
- Structured mapping - no need to start from scratch on each project, you capitalize on existing work.
- Sandbox + observability - every transaction traced end-to-end, support in 2 clicks without server access.
What Gatebold changes
A hosted platform, independent of Magento - secure and autonomous.
-
Platform independence
Your B2B flows (PunchOut, e-invoicing, etc.) live in the Gatebold platform, not in a Magento module. Your connections, mappings and history are managed outside the storefront - independent of Magento upgrades and evolutions.
-
Client autonomy
The merchant manages their connections, mappings and transactions from their own portal. No need to access the Magento admin, or mobilize a developer to add a recipient (PunchOut buyer or Approved Platform).
-
Multi-recipient without code
30 PunchOut buyers, multiple Approved Platforms? As many configurations in the Gatebold platform, each with its own adapted mapping. No configs buried in the Magento admin.
-
Security and traceability
Encrypted credentials, cryptographic signature on every exchange, complete audit trail. No secret stored in plain text in Magento - unlike competing modules that drop the shared secret into core_config_data.
-
Real-time operational visibility
Every B2B transaction is traced end-to-end: payload, status, error codes. Whether it is a PunchOut cart or an invoice issued to an Approved Platform, support sees everything in 2 clicks without accessing the server.
-
Time-to-market
Connector installed, credentials entered, one click Register - connected in minutes. Not a multi-week integration project.
-
Team and data in France
French-speaking support, same timezone, data hosted in France. Native GDPR compliance.
-
Interface available in English
The Gatebold portal is available in English and French. Your teams work in their language, without barriers.

Specialization
Built for Magento and Adobe Commerce.
Most B2B integrations (PunchOut, e-invoicing, e-reporting, etc.) on Magento end up as stacked custom modules or ad-hoc partnerships. Gatebold offers a clean path: a dedicated platform, a maintained connector, and a clear separation of responsibilities.
- Maintained, versioned Magento / Adobe Commerce connector
- No protocol or normalization logic (cXML, OCI, EN 16931, etc.) inside your storefront core
- Compatible with existing Magento B2B architectures
- Multi-buyer catalog and multi-Approved Platform flow support
Pricing
Simple, transparent pricing.
Platform access + Magento and Adobe Commerce connector. Starting at 149 EUR/month. No commitment.
