e-Boekhouden

What e-Boekhouden does

e-Boekhouden is a Dutch cloud-based SaaS accounting platform operated by SkillSource B.V., a private limited company founded in 2002 and headquartered in Geldrop, Netherlands. The platform targets Dutch entrepreneurs, freelancers (zzp'ers), small businesses, associations/foundations, and accountants, offering a modular suite built around two core modules — Boekhouden (accounting) and Facturatie (invoicing) — supplemented by features such as automatic bank-to-invoice matching, OCR-based Scan & Herken receipt recognition, time tracking, CRM, membership administration, fixed-assets depreciation, digital archiving, and a dedicated accountant co-administration environment.

The technology stack is web-based with native iOS and Android apps, PSD2 direct integrations with all major Dutch banks (ABN AMRO, Rabobank, ING, Knab, bunq), a SOAP/API surface for third-party developers, UBL electronic-invoice support, and a direct integration with the Dutch Belastingdienst for one-click VAT and ICP submissions. Automation centers on rule-based bank transaction matching to open invoices, OCR-driven document intake, and XML Auditfile exports for tax-authority audits.

The business model is a freemium-to-subscription SaaS: a 15-month free starter account tied to new Dutch Chamber of Commerce registrations, a 14-day free trial, a Zzp/Mini subscription at €9.95/month (capped at 240 bookings/year), a Standard Package at €14.50/month for accounting plus €9.50/month for invoicing, a discounted Associations & Foundations package, and a free Accountants Environment monetized through connected client subscriptions. A Clicks.nu affiliate program pays up to €60 per referred lead, and an optional €1.40/month archive storage add-on supports retention after cancellation. Go-to-market blends product-led self-serve acquisition with an indirect accountant channel. The company claims 500,000+ entrepreneur customers, a 9.2/10 Trustpilot rating from 2,000 reviews, and serves Belgium through a separate e-boekhouden.be domain. No funding rounds, M&A, or revenue figures are publicly disclosed.

Recent moves6 records

Expansion highlights5 records

Emerging players

• Reeleezee: Dutch cloud accounting platform for entrepreneurs and accountants, owned by Wolters Kluwer. Smaller customer base but competes head-to-head in the same SME zzp accounting segment.
• Jortt: Dutch online accounting SaaS for SMBs and zzp'ers, positioned as a modern, design-forward alternative. Smaller scale than e-Boekhouden but competes for the same Dutch freelancer/SMB segment with comparable self-serve onboarding.

Direct peers

• SnelStart: Long-standing Dutch accounting software provider for small businesses and zzp'ers, with both cloud and on-premise offerings. Directly comparable SME target audience and accountant channel.
• Moneybird: Direct Dutch cloud accounting competitor focused on freelancers and small businesses with similar pricing (~€10–€15/month) and an accountant collaboration model. Closest one-to-one peer in the Dutch zzp/SMB accounting SaaS segment.
• Yuki: Dutch cloud accounting SaaS owned by Visma, built specifically for accountants and bookkeepers managing multiple SME client administrations. Directly comparable accountant-channel go-to-market and similar Dutch regulatory integration.
• Twinfield: Dutch-origin cloud accounting platform, now part of Wolters Kluwer. Targets accountants and SMEs with online bookkeeping and is a direct alternative for the same customer profile as e-Boekhouden.

Broad incumbents

• AFAS Profit: Major Dutch payroll and accounting software suite from AFAS Software. Competes for the Dutch SME segment with integrated HR/payroll/accounting — a bundling threat to e-Boekhouden's standalone accounting positioning.
• Exact Online: Largest incumbent Dutch cloud accounting/ERP suite, now backed by KKR. Serves the same SME base with broader functionality (HRM, CRM, project management) but higher price points and a more complex onboarding — a key competitor for upmarket migration of e-Boekhouden customers.
• Visma eAccounting: Nordic-headquartered Visma's Dutch cloud accounting product for SMBs. Competes on similar SME/accountant channels and benefits from Visma's larger scale, R&D investment, and cross-sell potential.
• Wolters Kluwer: Dutch-headquartered global information services and software group that owns Twinfield and Reeleezee. Competes broadly in Dutch accounting software and benefits from deep fiscal-content expertise complementary to e-Boekhouden's product.
