Where each one falls short

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

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

Lexware

  • Prices are tiered by employee count up to 50 Mitarbeitende, and the payroll add-on tiers above the base range are quoted only auf Anfrage (on request), not published (EUR)
  • Base plans range from EUR 7.90 to EUR 32.90 per month before VAT, with the introductory 50% discount lasting only 3 months
