How to get started
1
Submit instant notifications & eAU digitally – for law firms & software providers
The submission of instant notifications and electronic certificates of incapacity for work (eAU) is done via certified transmission methods in accordance with the regulations of the German Pension Insurance – reliable, secure, and legally recognized.
We offer two direct integration paths
- Tax advisors & payroll providers use our Partner Dashboard
- Software providers use our API interface for system integration

The two procedures at a glance
Instant notifications for employers
In certain industries, instant notifications must be submitted to the pension authority before an employee starts working.
Sofortmelder enables this quickly and legally compliant – with one click.
eAU for employers
Since 2023, employers must electronically retrieve employee sick notes (eAU) from the health insurance providers.
Our system handles the secure and automated retrieval of eAU data.
Note: Messages are available as PDF downloads or via API data stream. Results are automatically displayed in the dashboard.
