Our verdict
Bunpro suits beginners who want a free plan and a trial rather than a commitment. Paid entry starts at $5, and a free plan plus a 30 trial means you can size it up before paying anything. It runs on ios and is run from JP.

Pros and cons
Pros
- A free plan and a 30 trial, so you can try the paid tier at no cost
- Entry price of $5, under the €8.76 typical of accounting software on this list
- Support runs on email, help centre and community, with a help centre and community alongside email
- Aimed at beginners rather than teams that need a full finance department
Cons
- Available on ios only, so there is no desktop or Android build to match
- Priced from $5 against Qonto at €9 and Accountable at €9.90, so the free plan is the main reason to start
Who it suits
- Beginners who want to try bookkeeping before paying
- Learners who want a plan they can leave without a charge
- Anyone who wants help centre and community answers to email, help centre and community
Who should look elsewhere
- Qonto or Accountable buyers who want a desktop app for their bookkeeper
- Billy users who need invoicing and expenses for a business, not a study app
Free plan and trial
A free plan is available, and so is a 30 free trial, which is the longer of the two ways in. The trial ranks among the longer runs on offer, sitting above the 15 typical for accounting software. Paid entry starts at $5. The model is listed as free-plan and free-trial, so you can size up the paid tier and fall back to the free version without a charge.
Who runs it
Bunpro is run by BUNPRO株式会社, which is based in Japan and was founded in 2017. Support runs on email, help centre and community, which is a mix of a help centre, email and a community rather than a single route. There is no named regulator or licence behind the service, so the accountability sits with the operating company itself.

Frequently asked questions
How much does Bunpro cost to start?+
Paid entry starts at $5, and there is a free plan alongside it. The trial runs 30, so you can see the paid tier at no cost before deciding. That entry price sits below the €8.76 typical of accounting software in this ranking.
Is there a free plan?+
Yes. A free plan is available, and the pricing lists a free plan and a free trial as the two ways in. A 30 trial lets you try the paid tier first, then fall back to the free version if it does not suit.
What platforms does Bunpro run on?+
The app is listed on ios, which means it is built for phones rather than a desktop client. If you work at a fixed computer or share records with a bookkeeper, that matters. Support still runs on email, help centre and community.
Who runs Bunpro?+
The service is run by BUNPRO株式会社, based in Japan and founded in 2017. There is no named regulator or licence listed, so the company itself carries the accountability. Support is handled through email, help centre and community.
Who is Bunpro aimed at?+
The stated audience is beginners, and the app runs on ios with help through email, help centre and community. Buyers who want invoicing and expense tracking for a company should compare €9.90 and DKK 160 instead.
How long is the free trial?+
The trial runs 30, which is longer than the 15 typical for accounting software and near the top of the range. Nothing needs to be paid during the trial, and the free plan stays available afterwards.
What support can I get?+
Support runs on email, help centre and community: a help centre, email and a community. There is no phone or live chat listed, so a quick spoken answer is not part of the offer. The help centre and the community carry most of the load.
How does Bunpro compare with Qonto and Accountable on price?+
Bunpro starts at $5, Qonto at €9 and Accountable at €9.90. Bunpro is the cheapest of the three and adds a free plan on top. The difference matters most for a first purchase rather than an annual budget.
