Where each one falls short
Documented limitations, not opinions. Every one is a constraint you would hit in normal use.
Fiken
- Bank integration available only as add-on (69 NOK/month)
- Project accounting requires separate add-on (69 NOK/month)
- Payroll and employee features cost extra (69 NOK/month)
- Physical mail invoicing costs 25 NOK per invoice
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.
