About Fustle

Smart, stress-free finances for Iceland's freelancers and gig workers.

Who we are

We are Fustle — we build payment and compliance tools that let contractors focus on their job, not the paperwork. Our headquarters are in Reykjavík and we also operate in Akureyri.

Our story

In 2023, founders Joonas Tuompo and Maarit Kaipainen kept hearing the same complaints from contractors in Iceland: they spent more time invoicing and worrying about taxes than working.

With backgrounds in fintech, accounting, entrepreneurship, and EU regulation, they launched Fustle — a cloud platform that turns every gig into a payslip, with taxes and mandatory payments reported and sorted in one click.

Fustle is an official service partner of Wolt in Iceland since 2023.

Our mission

Give freelancers and contractors financial super-powers. Fustle offers an easy, all-inclusive service for self-employed contractors — first in Iceland. We invoice and collect your earnings, generate payslips, and report and pay your taxes, pension, and social security. You concentrate on your work; we do the rest.
