Grade point averageFair, out of 4.02.2

Who Soldo is for

  • Fits if you are an incorporated UK business that wants controlled prepaid cards
  • Works for teams that start with 3 cards and add more later

Who it is not for

  • Pricey if you add people, as £27 covers 3 users and 3 cards and each plan has transfer limits
  • Not for you if you are a sole trader, as only incorporated businesses can open an account
  • Watch out: prices are in pounds, exclude VAT and don't say if they are billed monthly or yearly
  • Watch out: card issuance and cash withdrawals carry separate financial services fees

Good to know

Good for

  • Small UK and EU companies that want prepaid cards rather than credit
  • Businesses that need fuel cards or shared team budgets
  • Finance teams that want a fixed monthly price with a free trial

Worth knowing

  • Prices are in pounds and exclude VAT; the page does not say whether they are billed monthly or annually.
  • Card issuance and cash withdrawals carry separate financial services fees.
  • Only incorporated businesses can open an account; sole traders cannot.
  • NetSuite, Dynamics 365 and SSO are add-ons on lower plans.

Keep it, or make your own?

Whether this is something you could build for yourself with an AI app builder, and what you would give up.

Keep it

To replace Soldo you would be making cards issued through a bank. That is not a weekend's work, with an AI app builder or without one.

It costs $434.12 a year.

What you could make

  • Expense tracking: an app builder makes this well.

What you could not

  • Cards issued through a bank.
  • Money moved between bank accounts, which takes a licensed payments partner.
  • Connections to other products, each kept working as those products change.

What this rests on. Soldo’s listing: what it does, where it runs, what it plugs into and what it costs. It is a judgement about the kind of software this is. We have not built a replacement for it, and making your own means looking after it too. How we decide, and every tool’s verdict.
