FinMaster: sovereignty score and 8 European alternatives

FinMaster is Dutch online accounting and administration software for business owners and bookkeeping firms. The cloud application records purchase and sales invoices, cash and bank data. Bank connections run over PSD2, and there is a mobile app and optional modules, such as budgeting and contract management.

FinMaster B.V. is based in De Kwakel and registered with the Dutch Chamber of Commerce. The company states that it holds a PSD2 licence from De Nederlandsche Bank. The sources do not name owners or any foreign parent company. The privacy statement refers to the Dutch Personal Data Protection Act rather than explicitly to the GDPR, and it does not name a hosting location or cloud provider. For a European organisation this means a Dutch provider whose data location should be confirmed before use.

Why digital sovereignty matters with FinMaster

FinMaster is headquartered in NL and therefore falls under European law: the GDPR, NIS2 and the Data Act. No foreign legislation can compel access to your data.

Data is hosted exclusively in the EU, so FinMaster scores best on data residency.

FinMaster is closed source and hosted by the vendor. The encryption keys and the runtime sit with the vendor and switching requires data migration. Ask about bring-your-own-key, export options and open standards.

What this means for your organisation depends on your whole stack and context. The free assessment weighs FinMaster together with your other vendors and gives a total score, a heatmap and the main risk drivers.
