dk raised its prices. Here are the 5 best alternatives and how to switch.
Kassify · 5 November 2026
In March 2026 the cheapest package on dk's site cost 12.857 kr. a month excluding VAT. In November the cheapest package costs 19.250 kr. Companies on dk that are getting a higher bill have started asking what else is out there and what it costs to switch.
Here is how the alternatives rank, what they cost, what each one does for you and how to switch.
What changed at dk
On 28 November 2025 dk announced price rises on selected service items from the New Year, without giving figures. This is how the price list on dk's site looked in March and in November, per month excluding VAT:
| Package, 10 March 2026 | Price | Package, 5 November 2026 | Price |
|---|---|---|---|
| Viðskiptalausn I | 12.857 kr. | dk Kjarni | 19.250 kr. |
| Viðskiptalausn II | 16.343 kr. | dk Vöxtur | 29.500 kr. |
| Viðskiptalausn III | 19.835 kr. | dk Tindur | 39.000 kr. |
The contents of the packages changed at the same time, and a service contract now comes with every new package.
The system is only part of the bill
dk is a system. Someone still has to book, reconcile, file VAT and run payroll, and an accountant has to do the annual accounts and tax return. dk Vöxtur, the package marked most chosen on dk's site, costs 354.000 kr. a year. Simplex publishes prices from 39.900 kr. a month for bookkeeping and VAT returns, so 478.800 kr. a year. Endurskoðun & ráðgjöf publishes prices from 130.000 kr. for a company's annual accounts and tax return. Together that is 962.800 kr. a year excluding VAT, on three invoices, and you still manage the contact between all three.
The question that matters is who does the work. So the ranking below goes by how much work comes off your plate, and then by price.

1. Kassify
Kassify is a whole finance department for one fixed price. It is an accounting firm that uses AI, so you need no separate system, bookkeeper or accountant on top. Every transaction is read, categorised and matched without a single manual entry from you.
- Bookkeeping, payroll, VAT returns, the app, the annual accounts and the tax return for one fixed monthly price.
- 20% lower annual accounting costs than at a traditional firm, and over 100 hours a year for other things.
- The move from dk in less than 7 days, included in the price. Kassify talks to your bookkeeper and the history comes with you.
- Banks and cards connected. Bills in your email find their own way into the books, and receipts arrive from Messenger and the app.
- A bookkeeper replies within 24 hours. Chartered accountants stand behind the work, including Gunnar Freyr Guðmundsson, owner of Endár ehf.
The other four options below are systems. You change systems, the work stays yours and you still pay a bookkeeper and an accountant. With Kassify you stop handling the books.
2. Payday

How to switch
If you change systems yourself, these are the steps:
- 1Pick a date
The start of a month, ideally at New Year or when a new VAT period starts (January, March, May, July, September, November). VAT periods are usually two months, and half a period in each system makes extra work.
- 2Finish the books in dk
Confirm your transactions and reconcile the bank before the date. If you switch at New Year you still have to close the old year: the last VAT period, the payslip statements and the annual accounts.
- 3Move the data
Balances, customers, suppliers, products and opening balances. Some systems take only opening balances and leave the history behind, so ask first what moves.
- 4Compare the numbers
Run a balance list in both systems. The numbers should match before you go on.
- 5Set up the bank connection and payroll
The bank connection has to work from the switch date, and each month's payroll runs in one system, not both.
- 6Keep the old data
The Bookkeeping Act no. 145/1994 requires accounting records to be kept for 7 years from the end of the financial year. Make sure you can reach them before you cancel your dk subscription.
Bóklega, which works with Payday, estimates two to three weeks for a small company.
With Kassify you skip all of this. You give your bookkeeper's name, Kassify moves the history, reconciles every account and takes over in less than 7 days. The move is included in the fixed price.
Questions
What does Kassify cost?
One fixed monthly price, set by the size of your business, covers bookkeeping, payroll, VAT, the annual accounts and the tax return. You get the price in writing before you decide.
What about my bookkeeper?
Kassify talks to them and takes over for you. You do not have to have that conversation.
When is the best time to switch?
At New Year, when most companies start a new financial year. Switch before New Year and Kassify takes over your books from 1 January. You can also switch at another time of year.
Who does the books?
Certified bookkeepers and chartered accountants. The AI does the work and Kassify's professionals stand behind it.
Stop paying three providers. One fixed price.
