The short version

  • Only SalaryFits has a free tier, so it costs nothing to try first.
  • Each has a real cost: Nmbrs coverage is the Netherlands and Sweden only, so any international group will run Nmbrs alongside other payroll systems and reconcile them manually.; SalaryFits it only operates in Brazil, tied to Brazilian payroll and labour law, so it is not an option for any multinational benefits programme outside that market.
  • They diverge on capability: Nmbrs covers Dutch payroll engine, SalaryFits covers Discount club.
  • Prices and features above were last checked on 1 September 2026.

Where each one falls short

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

Nmbrs

  • Coverage is the Netherlands and Sweden only, so any international group will run Nmbrs alongside other payroll systems and reconcile them manually.
  • Most customers buy through an accountancy or payroll bureau, which means the price, the service level and the escalation path are set by an intermediary rather than by Visma.
  • English documentation and support lag behind the Dutch material, which slows down international finance teams trying to understand what a declaration actually contains.
  • The HR modules are basic next to a dedicated HRIS, so companies typically pair Nmbrs with another system and maintain an integration between them.
  • Ownership by Visma places it inside a large portfolio with overlapping payroll products, and buyers should ask where Nmbrs sits in that portfolio before committing to a long contract.

SalaryFits

  • It only operates in Brazil, tied to Brazilian payroll and labour law, so it is not an option for any multinational benefits programme outside that market.
  • Ownership by Serasa Experian, a credit bureau, puts consumer credit data and workplace financial wellness in the hands of the same company, which some employees and employers may view as a conflict of interest.
  • Salary advances and payroll loans carry real fees and interest even though the base app is free to the employer, so the actual cost to employees is not zero despite the marketing framing.
  • As with any earned wage access product, heavy reliance on advances can mask underlying pay adequacy problems rather than solve them, and repeated use signals financial distress that a purely additive benefit narrative does not capture.
  • Independent, English-language documentation and support are thin, since the product and its support model are built around Brazilian Portuguese speaking employers and employees.

Answered from the vendors’ own pages

Nmbrs: Does Nmbrs actually file Dutch payroll taxes?

Yes. It calculates wage tax and submits the loonaangifte to the Belastingdienst, along with pension fund and sector scheme declarations. It is not an aggregator passing data to a bureau.

SalaryFits: Is SalaryFits still an independent company?

No. It was acquired by Serasa Experian, with the deal approved by Brazil's CADE antitrust authority in 2024, and now operates as part of that group.

Nmbrs: Which countries does it cover?

The Netherlands and Sweden. Nowhere else.

SalaryFits: Does it cost the employer anything?

The base discount club and app access are free to employers; advances and payroll loans carry fees and interest paid by employees.

Nmbrs: Do I buy it direct or through an accountant?

Both are possible, but most Dutch customers come through an accountancy or payroll administration firm, and the price and support come from that firm.

SalaryFits: Does it operate outside Brazil?

No, it is built specifically for the Brazilian market.

Nmbrs: Who owns Nmbrs?

Visma, the Nordic business software group, acquired it in 2017.
