Fiken
6.6/10Norwegian online accounting software for small businesses and sole proprietors that covers invoicing, bookkeeping, VAT, payroll and year-end tax filings.
Data last updated November 2026 · Our methodology
Overview
Fiken is a cloud accounting program from Oslo, built for Norwegian sole proprietorships (enkeltpersonforetak) and small limited companies (AS) that do their own books. Users send invoices with their own logo, connect a bank account, photograph receipts and get suggested postings, and run double-entry bookkeeping. Fiken can also fill in the tax return and annual accounts from the books. The product guides users step by step through required tasks, and Trustpilot reviewers often mention this as the reason non-accountants can manage it. Pricing is simple. There is one base plan at 219 NOK per month excluding VAT, with no binding period, unlimited invoices by email and EHF, and extra users at no cost. Paid modules are added on top: bank connection, project accounting, KID numbers and API access at a monthly fee, and payroll, time tracking and travel expenses priced per user. Year-end tax return packages are billed annually, and SMS, Vipps e-invoice, paper invoices and credit checks are charged per use. Integrations include a bank feed, an API module, and third-party connectors such as a Shopify app. Fiken also works alongside an external accountant. The main limitation is scope. Fiken is Norwegian-only, with limited English support, and comparison sites describe it as best for simple self-bookkeeping rather than growing firms that need advanced reporting, projects or many integrations. For those firms, Tripletex or PowerOffice Go are usually suggested.
