About "インフォマート"
What is Infomart
Infomart is the "BtoB Platform" series from Infomart Corporation (listed on the Tokyo Stock Exchange Prime Market) that digitizes business-to-business (BtoB) transactions. It replaces the exchange of invoices, ordering, contracts, quotations and more — moving them from paper, email and fax to simply "checking and processing on screen." Its core product, "BtoB Platform Invoice," has more than 1.2M companies using it and the No.1 share in Japan, letting you both issue and receive invoices in a single service.
Infomart is not a product built around generative AI; it is a platform that digitizes the transactions themselves. AI plays a supporting role in electronization and automation — for example, AI-OCR that reads paper/PDF invoices and purchase orders and turns them into data.
Not "sending," but completing it on screen
Paper and PDF invoices take effort to print, stuff, and mail, and to enter and store on the receiving side. Infomart lets both parties exchange data on the same platform, so both issuing and receiving are completed on screen. Because trading partners can join for free, adoption spreads easily, and the strength is being connected to a network of 1.2M+ companies.

- The receiving side must enter and store data

companies use it
Tokyo Shoko Research
Roughly one-third of all companies in Japan — over 1.2M — use it, and the annual transaction value on the platform exceeds ¥62 trillion (both as of August 2025). It connects with 50+ systems such as OBC, Yayoi, PCA and Concur, and with Peppol.
How it differs from other BtoB / invoice services
Invoicing takes many forms — "a feature of accounting software," "a service specialized in receiving," and so on. Infomart's distinction is being a network-type service that supports both issuing and receiving, with partners joining for free, and its overwhelming scale of use.
| Aspect | Infomart | Accounting software (freee / MoneyForward) | Receiving-focused (Bill One, etc.) |
|---|---|---|---|
| Purpose | Digitize B2B transactions (issue & receive) | Bookkeeping / accounting / closing | Receiving & digitizing invoices |
| Network | Partners join for free (1.2M+) | Centered on one's own accounting | Focused on receiver efficiency |
| Strength | No.1 share; food-industry commerce | Accounting/back office overall | Unifying the receiving workflow |
For the back office overall, see freee or MoneyForward Cloud and Yayoi; for invoice AI-OCR, see invox. For companies that want to bring partners on board and digitize invoicing and ordering together, Infomart is a strong choice.
