Syfers

What Syfers does

Syfers B.V. is a Dutch full-service financial services firm (administratiekantoor) headquartered in Zoetermeer, Netherlands, founded in 2010 and operating through multiple wholly-owned regional subsidiaries in Bleiswijk, Breda, Gouwestreek, and Haaglanden. The company serves more than 1,000 Dutch entrepreneurs and SMBs — ranging from self-employed freelancers (ZZP'ers) and directors-major-shareholders (DGA) to companies with up to 250 employees — across verticals including healthcare (physiotherapy), veterinary, hospitality, legal, automotive, and sports organizations. Its offering spans bookkeeping, VAT and corporate/income tax filings, payroll administration, annual financial statement preparation, business financing, mortgage advisory (via Syfers Hypotheek & Vermogen BV), insurance, pension, and HR advisory, delivered through a hybrid subscription-plus-professional-services model with quote-based pricing on advisory work.

The underlying technology is an integrated stack of third-party cloud platforms rather than a proprietary product: Twinfield, Exact Online, and Yuki for accounting; Zenvoices (migrated from Basecone) for document management and invoice recognition; WeFact for invoicing; Bizzcontrol, Visionplanner, Ezora, and Microsoft Power BI for reporting and dashboards; Pleo for expense cards; Timechimp for time tracking; and eHerkenning plus Wwft Dossier for regulatory compliance. Syfers wraps these in its own client portal (€7.50/month per entity) with first-line support. Accountancy and attestation work that requires formal audit is routed to partner firm One Accountants; Syfers itself is affiliated with NOAB.

Commercially, Syfers runs a sales-led go-to-market with assigned account managers, phone-based consultative selling, walk-in service at Zoetermeer HQ, and a website with downloadable fiscal content and reviews for top-of-funnel lead generation. The 67-person team is structured into functional departments (year-end work, controlling, payroll, sales, ICT, marketing) with several 10-14-year veterans providing institutional continuity; 46% of staff are under 40 and 44% are women. In 2025 the firm processed 399,526 invoices and prepared 1,495 annual accounts.
