Comparison · SAT portal

The SAT portal and Clauhub.When each one fits.

The SAT lets you invoice for free, download your XML and look up the 69-B list. Clauhub requests those same documents from the SAT with your e.firma and does the monthly work for you.

Clau beside a scale, comparing two options

The differences, in figures

The portal and Clauhub, row by row.

The SAT is the official source of your CFDI, and Clauhub requests them with your e.firma. The difference is who does the work every month.

  • Issue CFDI 4.0[2]

    Clauhub
    Yes

    40 invoice types. Your customers and products fill in from what you already invoiced.

    SAT portal
    Yes

    Free service, without hiring a certification provider. Aimed at low invoice volumes, though not limited to them.

  • Download issued and received XML[1]

    Clauhub
    Yes

    With your e.firma, up to five years back, no captcha and no 500-per-search cap.

    SAT portal
    Yes

    On the portal, with e.firma or password: shows the first 500 CFDI per search and allows up to 2,000 XML a day.

  • Bulk download[1]

    Clauhub
    Yes

    Clauhub makes the requests for you and syncs on its own every 12 hours.

    SAT portal
    Yes

    With your e.firma you can enable a web service: up to 200,000 records per request.

  • How long it takes[1]

    Clauhub

    You see your first received invoices in minutes.

    SAT portal

    Up to 48 hours to handle a portal request, and three days to retrieve the documents.

  • Suppliers on the 69-B list[3]

    Clauhub
    Yes

    Checks all your suppliers every day and alerts you with the publication date.

    SAT portal
    Yes

    Public lookup by RFC or name, with no sign-in, and the full list in Excel.

  • Cost[2]

    Clauhub

    No cost during launch. Stamps to invoice: $299.52 MXN + VAT per 100 ($347.44 with VAT).

    SAT portal

    The SAT's invoicing service is free.

When each one fits. The portal is still the official source.

The SAT portal fits if

  • You issue few invoices a month and don't want to pay to invoice
  • You download your XML now and then, and they fit in one search
  • You want to check a single RFC on the 69-B list
  • You have someone to integrate the bulk download web service

Clauhub fits if

  • You want five years of CFDI downloaded and kept current, without requesting them
  • You want to be told the day a supplier appears on the 69-B list
  • You need VAT, DIOT and accounting from the same XML
  • You handle several RFCs and want them all in one account

Clauhub doesn't replace the SAT: it requests your documents with your e.firma, which is used only for that and which you can delete in one click.

Frequently asked questions

Does Clauhub get the information from the SAT?

Yes. You connect your e.firma once and Clauhub requests your issued and received CFDI from the SAT, up to five years back. After that it syncs on its own every 12 hours.

Does it work with the password (CIEC)?

No. The SAT's bulk download requires the e.firma; the CIEC can't request XML in volume.

What does Clauhub do with my e.firma?

It only uses it to request your documents from the SAT. The password is stored encrypted with AES-256-GCM, and you delete it in one click so we stop syncing.

If the portal is free, why pay?

Today the system has no cost during launch; you only pay for stamps if you invoice, from $299.52 MXN + VAT per 100 ($347.44 with VAT). What you save is the time spent requesting, downloading and reviewing every month.

Where does the SAT information on this page come from?

From the SAT pages cited below, with the date we read them. The SAT may change its limits; its portal is always the current source.
