What is KassenSichV?
The Kassensicherungsverordnung (KassenSichV) is a German regulation that requires all merchants operating cash registers in Germany to connect to a certified Technical Security System (TSS). This helps safeguard business transactions and prevent tax evasion.

KassenSichV compliance in Little Hotelier
Little Hotelier has partnered with fiskaly GmbH to ensure properties operating in Germany maintain cash register compliance. Compliant German properties will have:
Events impacting cash register transactions shared with fiskaly GmbH for audit logging in real time
QR codes included in new invoices for reservations following a ‘fiscal event’ (a payment or a refund), indicating that fiskaly GmbH TSS has been applied
Setting up cash register with TSS
All German Little Hotelier properties have cash register compliance enabled by default.
However, you’ll need to complete the following:

Once completed, your Little Hotelier cash register will sync all transactions to Fiskaly’s TSS in real time
New invoices for reservations following a fiscal event will include a QR code for auditing purposes.
Note: Please allow a few minutes for TSS to add the QR code to an invoice. The invoice cannot be downloaded or regenerated until the code has been added.
