Comparison · Light vs Mynt
Light vs Mynt
Mynt is a well-built Swedish company card and expense platform, and Fortnox Företagskort is offered in partnership with Mynt. Whichever card you use, it posts into Fortnox or your accounting system rather than being one, so you run 2 systems and the ledger question stays open. Light is the agentic ERP that IS your system of record: spend, AP/AR, and multi-entity accounting in one platform.

Cards and books together
Mynt posts expenses into Fortnox or another accounting system. Light records the card transaction, receipt and posting on the same ledger that holds your accounts.

One view across the group
Light consolidates entities and currencies continuously. Your group accounts come from the ledger where employees spend and suppliers get paid.
- 02
Keep the receipt with the spend
Light captures receipts through Slack, Teams and email, with corporate and virtual cards and expense policies built into the accounting workflow.
When to choose Light
- 01
The close happens in one place
The card transaction, the receipt and the ledger entry sit in one system, so there is nothing to match across systems.
- 02
One ledger for every entity
Add a company, a country or a currency without adding another system.
- 03
Group accounts, not a dashboard
Consolidated financial statements come from the ledger itself, across every entity and currency.

Frequently asked questions
Does Mynt replace Fortnox?
No. Mynt integrates with Fortnox. Light provides both the ledger and spend management.
Do we have to replace our Mynt cards?
No. Add your Mynt cards to Light as an external card account and bring the transactions in by CSV upload or a continuous push through the Light API. From there the transactions are handled like Light card spend: cardholders are asked for receipts, AI matches and codes each transaction, and it posts to the ledger. Your cards and your plan stay with Mynt. If you later move to Light cards, the card transaction and the ledger entry become one record.
What about Fortnox Företagskort?
Fortnox offers it in partnership with Mynt. It still sits alongside the accounting system.
When does Mynt fit?
When you want cards and expense management and are happy with your current accounting system.
