Short verdict

Good fit for

Freelancers with a sole proprietorship or single-person BV who want a fixed low monthly price with 500 transactions per year.

Less suited to

General partnerships (vof), professional partnerships (maatschap) and BVs with several directors; Knab does not currently accept them.

Key facts

  • €7 per month for a sole proprietorship, €11 for a BV
  • 500 transactions per year included, then €0.10 each
  • Since November 2025 a branch of the Austrian BAWAG

What is Knab Zakelijk?

Knab Zakelijk is the business account from Knab, since November 2025 a trading name of the Dutch branch of the Austrian bank BAWAG, based in Amsterdam. You open the account in the Knab app and get a Dutch IBAN (NL), up to 5 current accounts, savings pots for VAT and tax, and business payment requests. Knab does not say that all customer data stays in the EU; according to the privacy statement, in exceptional cases data may be visible to service providers outside the EEA. We did not find a data processing agreement; for a bank account it usually does not apply.

Good: a fixed price with 500 transactions per year, free customer due diligence and an integration with e-Boekhouden.nl, SnelStart and Jortt, among others.

Less good: only for a sole proprietorship or a BV with one director who is a 100% shareholder. Moneybird is not on the list of integrations.
