Airbase

Fortnox

  • Corporate packages alone span at least 7 named tiers (Mini through Stor+) priced from 209 kr/man to 919 kr/man, and add-on programs are billed separately per module (SEK)
  • The Fortnox Access verification tier is priced by transaction volume, rising from 9 kr/man at zero verifications to 199 kr/man at 1000+ verifications (SEK), so cost is not fixed and scales with usage
