The short version

  • Only Conta has a free tier, so it costs nothing to try first.
  • Each has a real cost: Conta norwegian pricing only: displayed in NOK without multi-currency support for international comparisons; Soldo cards are prepaid, so if the central wallet runs low the cards decline in front of a supplier, and treasury has to keep an idle float funded rather than using a credit line.
  • Prices and features above were last checked on 2 September 2026.

Where each one falls short

Documented limitations, not opinions. Every one is a constraint you would hit in normal use.

Conta

  • Norwegian pricing only: displayed in NOK without multi-currency support for international comparisons
  • Annual billing required: no monthly-pay option for either tier, forcing yearly commitment
  • Pro tier vaporware: listed as 'coming soon' with no pricing or feature roadmap provided
  • Limited feature differentiation: Smart tier is 'most selected' by customers but does not clearly explain what additional business value justifies 62% price premium over Standard

Soldo

  • Cards are prepaid, so if the central wallet runs low the cards decline in front of a supplier, and treasury has to keep an idle float funded rather than using a credit line.
  • The plan fee covers only three users, and per-user charges plus physical card fees mean the real monthly cost is several times the advertised headline for a team of twenty.
  • It does not extend credit, so it gives no working capital benefit and no card rewards of the kind US charge card issuers use to offset their cost.
  • Sole traders and some business types are not accepted, which catches out small consultancies expecting to sign up online.
  • Coverage is European; a company with US or Asian subsidiaries will need a second card programme and a second expense workflow for them.
