ABOUT THE SOFTWARE

What is Firefly III

Firefly III is an open-source, self-hosted personal finance manager built around double-entry bookkeeping — every transaction has a source and a destination, the way professional accountants do it.

The project was created and is maintained by James Cole, originates from the Netherlands, and is licensed under AGPL-3.0. The codebase on GitHub has roughly 23,000 stars and an active contributor community translating the interface into more than 30 languages.

What Firefly III is not: a Plaid-style bank-data aggregator with a polished mobile app. What it is: a rigorous double-entry ledger with budgets, piggy banks, a rule engine for transaction automation, recurring transactions, multi-currency at every level (account, budget, piggy bank, transaction), and a complete OpenAPI 3 REST surface that covers almost every feature. Bank connections are a separate concern — handled by the Firefly III Data Importer, a companion container that supports CSV, CAMT.053, GoCardless (PSD2 open-banking feeds), and SimpleFIN (most US banks). The architecture is honest about its trade-offs and rewards the people who want depth.

FEATURES

What Firefly III does

A rigorous double-entry ledger built for personal and small-organization finance. Eight feature families cover budgeting, savings, automation, and integration. Every one of them is in the open-source core — no paid tier, no upsell.

Double-entry bookkeeping

Every transaction moves money between a source account and a destination account. Net worth, asset balances, and category spending stay consistent across the entire ledger by construction.

Piggy banks

Sinking funds tied to an asset account. Save toward a goal, watch the progress, and reconcile against the actual balance. Each piggy bank can carry its own currency.

Recurring transactions

Define a transaction once with a repetition schedule (weekly, monthly, yearly, custom), and the cron job creates the actual entries on the right dates. Split recurrences supported.

REST JSON API with OAuth2

Full OpenAPI 3 surface covering accounts, transactions, budgets, piggy banks, rules, and reports. Personal access tokens for scripts, OAuth2 clients for third-party apps. Home Assistant, n8n, and AI agents all integrate.

Budgets, categories, and tags

Budget envelopes with monthly or custom periods, categories for spend classification, and tags for cross-cutting groupings (a vacation, a client project, a renovation). Three orthogonal axes, all reportable.

Rule engine

If-this-then-that logic for incoming transactions: assign budgets and categories automatically, tag by counterparty, split a recurring withdrawal across categories. Runs on import and on demand.

Multi-currency support

Native ISO 4217 currencies on accounts, budgets, piggy banks, and individual transactions. Optional exchange-rate conversion (opt-in from v6.2) keeps a primary-currency view consistent.

Reports and webhooks

Income vs expense, category breakdown, budget consumption, double-entry consistency, net-worth trend, audit log. Webhooks fire on transaction create, update, delete — and on budget, account, and piggy-bank events.

WHY MANAGED

Why teams pick managed Firefly III

Monarch Money launched a $199-per-year "Plus" tier in 2026 — doubling the entry price for users with side hustles, rental income, or forecasting needs. YNAB sits at $109 per year. Mint shut down two years ago. The subscription-finance category keeps getting more expensive; the data keeps living on someone else's server.

Self-hosting Firefly III is the answer for the buyer who wants the depth without the rent. But "just run Firefly III yourself" hides real operational work. The container expects a PostgreSQL or MySQL instance configured with a non-trivial set of credentials. The APP_KEY environment variable must be exactly 32 alphanumeric characters with no special characters — get it wrong and the application refuses to start. The Data Importer is a separate container with its own OAuth client, its own .env file, and its own cron schedule for the auto-import endpoint.

The most common failure mode shows up the moment Firefly III sits behind a reverse proxy. The login form generates http:// URLs instead of https://, the browser blocks the form submission with a Content Security Policy violation, the CSS and JavaScript assets refuse to load over mixed content, and the registration flow breaks before the user has logged in for the first time. The GitHub discussions on this single configuration question — TRUSTED_PROXIES, APP_URL, X-Forwarded-Proto headers, nginx proxy_set_header lines — run into the hundreds across multiple years. The fix is a few precise lines of configuration, but they have to be exactly right.

REVIEWS

Hear from customers like you

Successful businesses and professionals around the world rely on DANIAN every day

No more maintenance headaches!

Finaly, I can relax and not bother with maintenance. Each of the softwares that we run on DANIAN is automated and running stable for couple months already. They even assist us with modifying the DNS records. Once we needed to modify the config of Nextcloud so that we are able to upload higher than 5GB files and they assisted us fast. I also love their documentation!

Kevin Blackwell

Best managed service

I previously ran Peertube, Mastodon, Mattermost and Mirotalk on other providers before switching to DANIAN. I was tired of handling the updates and backups myself. Not only that the performance is "out of this world" fast, but their tech support is amazing. Since then I added 5-10 more Apps on my account. I also love how they add more softwares on their list constantly!

William Northfield

Love the personalized service!

I own an ecommerce startup. I knew that I need some softwares so that I add automations in my biz. I hopped on their livechat and I explained my needs. Albert recommended me couple softwares, each for a specific use-case. I signed up for the free trial and tested all. Ended up activating 6 apps. Everything is running smooth 2 months so far. I love the personalized service that I get with them!

George Adams

n8n runs excellent

We needed to add the ffmpeg functionality to our n8n instance. I contacted their support team. They made the required changes in couple minutes and notified me. Usually for this type of service I would need to hire a developer on a hourly basis. Love them!

David Hartmann

Smooth experience

I needed a way to manage the projects and files for my company. This was the first time I learn about opensource. I asked their support and livechat and they assisted me immediately. I started with Openproject. Later I added Nextcloud. My team were able to get used to the apps fast.

Levi Nilsson

Bye GA

I wanted to replace GA with something but I didn't know the options. I talked with Jack on the livechat. Couple minutes after that, I have a running Matomo Analytics. They even configured the tracking and connected it with my website. I have only words of appreciation and respect!

Wyatt Mitchell

Love the freedom

I wanted to use a crm for my startup. I signed up for the free trial. Tried out espocrm and dolibar and picked one. Their dashboard is very easy for a beginner. I recommend them and feel confident in choosing them.

Elias Koch

Wow just wow

After discovering DANIAN, I wished I'd found them sooner — their solution is excellent and deserves wider recognition. Very good solution!

Tyler Hollander

Professional tech support!

I thought that I knew what I was doing and I made changes in the Mattermost backend config file. Then it broke. I reached out to their tech and received an incredibly specific and fast response. They found the error fast and provided a clear solution.

Bastian Engel

Their support team is the best!

I had a problem with my card and the subscription could not be renewed in time. I notified their support and surprisingly, they showed much understanding. They basically left my apps run until I solved the card issue. Other providers would have deleted my data in a heartbeat. This is the way to build client-vendor trust!

George Adams

Fair price and fast

4 months ago I activated n8n, Uptime kuma, Vaultwarden and Paperlessngx. So far everything is perfect. The performance of all apps is excellent. I contacted their support team couple times for using custom subdomains for the apps and they were fast and kind. I'm constantly recommending them to my network!

Atanas

Vaultwarden 10/10

I wanted to selfhost a passwords manager for my company but I didn't trust the mainstream providers. I tried out Vaultwarden for the free trial. I loved how their support team communicated with me professionally but still kind. I know that I can contact them whenever with whatever question I have. Recommended!

James Smith

Multiple locations options

I run an agency. The majority of our clients are in different countries. I love that DANIAN has 20+ countries and I can spin up any app in any location. This gives us the freedom to focus on our clients. Sure, I can employee a dev in my team, but honestly, I prefer to not have those headaches. With DANIAN everything is running 24/7.

Edward Nelson

Everything just works!

My focus is on my business, not running servers. I love that I can lauch any app without having to think about the tech behind it. Everything just works!

Tony Roy

Awesome support team!

I signed up for the free trial in order to test Chatwoot. I needed to put a livechat widget on my website but I don't have much tech experience. I contacted their support to see if they can assist. They went above and beyond by generating the livechat widget code for me and inserting it in my website. They answered all my additional questions.

Filip

Very proactive!

Today couple of the videos on my Peertube got viral. Before I even noticed, their support have notified me via email that they proactively upgraded my app with more cpu & ram so that it continues to work without any downtime. They left the upgraded app with the added resources for couple days until the traffic stabilizes. After that I had the possiblity to stay on the same plan or keep the upgraded plan. Out of gratitude I stayed on the upgraded one.

Luke Hall

Win-win!

I run a web design biz. After I perform the work for my clients, they constantly ask me for more software solutions. So I partnered with DANIAN. Not only I provide the requested softwares for my clients and get the increased revenue boost by delegating all to DANIAN, but also for those clients that wish to order directly from DANIAN, I send them an affiliate link. Win-win on all sides!

Luke Walker

Flexible

For the past couple months I was running many apps with DANIAN for my clients. But one of my clients wanted a software that isn't on the current list. I talked with their tech support. They accomodated me and added the software the same day. The next day, I signed for their Partners program. We will go long way together!

Jeffrey Johnson

Awesome customer service

I needed to add analytics on my website but I didn't know anything about DNS. Their team guided me at all phases and they performed the changes for me. Additionally they were transparent and notified me of every change applied and steps performed.

Gabriele Marino

Good admin dashboard

Not only that I got Chatwoot, I also have access to the management dashboard. I love that I can view my hourly/daily usage and perform manual backups and restorations if needed. I don't need the level of control but it feels good to know that I have it if I need it.

Matthew Turner

Financially wise decision

Why install Chatwoot on a VPS that will cost me $20-25/month. Then worry about security, updates, backups, etc. Instead, I can activate it on DANIAN the same day for half the price. Plus, less headaches for maintenance. So happy I found out about this company!

Andreas Schmitt

Great service!

I configure custom Matomo tracking for my clients as a monthly service. Many of my clients were asking if they can selfhost Matomo instead of using the Cloud service. My employee recommended DANIAN. Basically, I can activate as much Matomo's in any of 20+ countries the same day. Additionally the affiliate revenue is a nice bonus.

Jacob Turner

Smooth experience

I was listing through youtube tuts on how to install Bookstack myself. Then randomly, I found their video playlist exactly for Bookstack. Got curious and went at their website. For the same price (or higher) that I would pay for just the VPS, with them I'm getting a fully managed Bookstack. It's a no-brainer decision!

Elias Gustafsson

I love opensource software

2 days ago I haven't heard about opensource softwares. Today I'm running 4 apps and enjoying the trip. Hey, 1 month later I may become a developer, haha just kidding. Love you guys!

Mason Hayes

Its a great service

Its a great service. I love the performance of my Mastodon community. It keeps on growing and I don't have any worries about backups, secuirity, updates, etc.

Vinícius Rocha

Very intuitive solution!

I wanted to use a nocode software for my company. A friend recommended them so I tried both Baserow and NocoDB, couple days later picked one.

Haruto Hashimoto

Top-notch security

Honestly, I don't care much about performance and functionalities. I just wish to not bother with hacking attacks so that I can focus on my firm. I recommend them!

COMPARISON

Four ways to run Firefly III

Compare the realistic costs of running Firefly III, against the SaaS alternatives most buyers are leaving behind, and against the two self-host paths. The DANIAN column is the flat €9 per app per month. The math is on its side at every scale.

PATH	1 ADMINISTRATION	5 ADMINISTRATIONS	10 ADMINISTRATIONS	NOTES
Proprietary SaaS Monarch Money	$99.99/yr Core $199/yr Plus	$499.95/yr Core $995/yr Plus	$999.90/yr Core $1,990/yr Plus	Per-account pricing. Plus tier required for rental tracking, business income, forecasting. Data lives on Monarch servers. No self-host option.
Self-host on a VPS	$44/mo + €60–240/mo time	$44/mo + €60–240/mo time	$88/mo + €120–480/mo time	$24/mo production-class VPS + $5 backup target + $15 monitoring. Plus 1–2 hours/month per instance for patching, certificate renewal, backup verification, on-call.

DANIAN Managed Firefly III	€9/mo	€45/mo	€90/mo	Flat €9 per Firefly III instance. PostgreSQL, daily backups, SSL, custom domain, Data Importer, recurring-transactions cron, multi-user mode available. 0 hours of customer ops time.

BY INDUSTRY

Firefly III for specific industries

Four buyer profiles put materially different demands on a personal-finance ledger: tax-grade records, multi-currency depth, per-property segregation, and shared-treasury transparency. Each has a configuration shape that DANIAN tunes by default for that profile.

Freelancers and sole traders

Freelancers and sole traders need tax-grade records: HMRC's Making Tax Digital for Income Tax begins phasing in for UK self-employed earnings over £50,000 in April 2026, and US Schedule C filers face the same record-keeping bar at any income level. Firefly III's double-entry bookkeeping gives every transaction a source and a destination, which is the foundation auditors actually want.

On DANIAN we enable multi-user mode so an accountant can be granted a read-only OAuth client for quarter-end review, pin PostgreSQL with daily off-site backups, and wire the recurring-transactions cron so monthly retainers post on time. A typical sole trader runs 200 to 800 transactions a year; tag each with client and project (client:acme, project:website-redesign), run a CSV export when the tax window opens, and the accountant gets a clean ledger instead of a shoebox.

Multi-currency households and remote workers

Remote workers, expats, and bi-national households often hold 3 to 6 currencies at once: salary in one, rent in another, savings in a third, holiday spending in a fourth. Firefly III handles ISO 4217 currencies natively at every level — account, budget, piggy bank, transaction — which most subscription budgeting apps treat as an upsell or omit entirely.

On DANIAN we set the primary currency at provision (EUR, USD, GBP — whatever the household reports its net worth in), enable the exchange-rate auto-update job, and pin the instance to the region closest to the user's home base so dashboard latency stays under 50ms. GoCardless covers most PSD2 open-banking banks in supported regions; SimpleFIN covers most US banks at $1.50 per connection per month. A household carrying year-on-year FX swings of 4 to 8 percent gets a true net-worth picture instead of a snapshot in one currency.

Small landlords with 1 to 5 properties

Owners of 1 to 5 owner-managed rental properties file Schedule E in the US, SA105 in the UK, or the equivalent rental-income schedule elsewhere. Each property needs its own income, expense, mortgage-interest, and capital-expenditure track, plus a reserve fund for roof, boiler, or major repairs. Firefly III's piggy banks map cleanly onto sinking funds, and its tag system handles property identification without forcing a separate account tree for every unit.

On DANIAN we provision one Firefly III instance per landlord, attach a generous upload volume so PDF receipts and invoices stay with the transactions, and snapshot the database nightly off-site. A typical owner-managed property runs 30 to 80 transactions a year; CSV export at tax time takes a few minutes and arrives in the accountant's inbox the same day.

Treasurers of small associations and cooperatives

Treasurers of condo associations, sports clubs, co-working co-ops, and small community charities need transparent, audit-friendly books and a way to hand over to a successor without losing institutional memory. Firefly III's AGPL-3.0 license means the code stays open and the data stays portable; the multi-user mode lets the board, the auditor, and the incoming treasurer each have their own login.

On DANIAN we enable multi-user, configure a read-only role for the auditor via OAuth, and retain 30 days of off-site backups so the annual general meeting always has a recoverable snapshot. Typical small associations run 20 to 300 members and a single currency; the treasurer commits 2 to 4 hours a month. The annual treasurer report comes out of CSV export with a few formula columns and no surprises.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Everything teams ask before signing up — answered straight, without sales speak.

Three groups: technical setup, migration, and how DANIAN works as a service.

Technical and configuration

Will my Firefly III instance work behind my own domain and HTTPS?

Yes. DANIAN terminates TLS at the ingress, provisions a Let's Encrypt certificate for the custom domain, and sets the Firefly III TRUSTED_PROXIES, APP_URL, and X-Forwarded-Proto headers correctly before the container starts. The mixed-content and CSP form-action errors that come up repeatedly in the Firefly III GitHub discussions — one of the most-asked configuration questions in the project — are pre-resolved by the time the instance hands off to you.

Can I connect my bank via GoCardless or SimpleFIN?

Yes. GoCardless covers most PSD2 open-banking banks in supported regions; SimpleFIN covers most US banks at around $1.50 per connection per month. Both flow through the Data Importer container we provision. The GoCardless free tier rate-limits to 4 successful account refreshes per day per account, so we recommend a daily-import cron rather than hourly. End-user agreements expire every 90 to 180 days depending on the bank — Firefly III emails you when reauthorization is needed. Salt Edge stopped offering free-tier access to Firefly III users in October 2025 and is being removed from the importer.

What happens when Firefly III releases a major upgrade that invalidates OAuth tokens?

Firefly III v6.6.0 invalidated all OAuth tokens and clients when it shipped in March 2026 — this happens occasionally with major Laravel dependency bumps. When it does, we run the upgrade in a maintenance window, regenerate the Data Importer OAuth client, and email you a checklist of integrations to reconnect (Home Assistant, mobile companion apps, custom scripts). The database upgrade itself is automatic; only the API tokens need replacing.

How does DANIAN handle the cron jobs for recurring transactions and auto-import?

We run the Firefly III recurring-transactions cron at 03:00 in the instance's local time zone and the Data Importer auto-import cron at 22:00 — both via a managed scheduler that survives container restarts. AUTO_IMPORT_SECRET is provisioned at deploy time so the auto-import endpoint is locked down. If you want a different cadence — weekly imports, end-of-month-only, hourly during tax week — we change the schedule on request.

Can I run more than one Firefly III administration on the same DANIAN account?

Yes — two patterns work. Either deploy multiple Firefly III instances under your DANIAN account (one per €9 per month, each fully isolated with its own database and upload volume — best for accountants tracking separate client books), or enable multi-user mode on a single instance so a household or board can share one administration with separate logins. We default to single-user mode on provision; flip the env flag and restart the container when you want multi-user.

What database does DANIAN use — MySQL or PostgreSQL?

PostgreSQL, with DB_CONNECTION=pgsql in the Firefly III environment. MariaDB and MySQL are supported by Firefly III upstream, but PostgreSQL handles the v6.x JSON columns and exchange-rate timeseries with fewer edge cases, and the daily logical dump (pg_dump custom format) restores cleanly.

How do you back up the upload volume and the database together?

Both, every night, to an off-site object-storage target in a different region from your instance. The database goes out as a compressed pg_dump in custom format; the upload volume — your receipt PDFs and attachments — goes out as an incremental tar. Retention is 7 days standard; we keep your APP_KEY in our secret store so a restore can be done without losing access to encrypted fields. Point-in-time restore to any night in the last 7 days is one support ticket away.

Does Firefly III's REST API work on DANIAN, and is OAuth already set up?

Yes. The full Firefly III REST API (OpenAPI 3 spec at /api/v1) is exposed on your custom domain over HTTPS. We pre-generate a Personal Access Token for the admin user during provisioning so you can call the API from Home Assistant, n8n, AI agents, or your own scripts without opening Settings first. OAuth2 client registration works for multi-user setups; we hand you the client ID and secret on request.

Migration and onboarding

How do you handle DNS and the custom domain during setup?

We can activate your app on your own custom domain/subdomain. Examples: mydomain.com, anyword.mydomain.com.
Or, on our randomized free subdomain. Example: 963.apps.danian.cloud
If you wish to use a custom domain/subdomain, select that option when ordering your app (or notify us later). We will send you the required DNS records and if needed, our tech team will modify them for you.

Which regions can I deploy in?

21 datacenter locations across six continents. You choose the region at provisioning. Application data sits in the region you choose; pick whichever is closest to your users or matches your data-residency preference.

Can I move regions later?

Yes. Request a region migration from the dashboard and we run the move in the background. The system emails you when the migration completes; total transfer time depends on data volume but typical instances finish in a few hours. There is no extra charge for a region change.

Can I leave and take my data with me?

Yes. Full data export is available at any time, in a portable format you can bring to any infrastructure.

Can I import my Mint, YNAB, or Monarch Money CSV?

Yes. All three apps export transaction history as CSV. The Firefly III Data Importer (provisioned alongside the main instance) maps CSV columns to Firefly's account, category, and tag fields through a guided UI. Mint exports work cleanly. YNAB and Monarch exports usually need a column-mapping tweak — we publish the working column profiles in the support knowledge base and can apply them for you on request.

Can I set up single sign-on with my own identity provider?

Yes. Firefly III supports SAML and OIDC for multi-user instances. We handle the env-variable wiring for Authentik, Authelia, Keycloak, Microsoft Entra, Google Workspace, or any compliant IdP. Open a ticket with your IdP type and metadata URL; setup typically completes the same day.

Billing, support, and platform

What's included in €9 per app, per month?

€9 covers everything we do for that app: hardware in the region you choose, daily off-site backups with one-click restore, automatic security patches and version upgrades, 24/7 monitoring, SSL and firewall, and engineering support on Email/LiveChat. There are no setup fees or hidden line items. For more info see our Pricing page.

What happens after the 7-day trial?

If you decide to continue, we charge €9/app/month from day 8. If you don't, the trial ends and you can export your data. No card is required for the trial, and we never auto-charge you without explicit consent.

Are there per-user fees?

No. The €9/month is flat regardless of how many users log into your app. Add 5 users or 50; the price doesn't change.

What is included in support?

24/7 Live chat and email support, both staffed by engineers who run the systems. We handle DNS configuration, SMTP setup, app integrations, performance tuning, troubleshooting, and migration help. Response time is typically under an hour. There is no tier system — every customer gets the same support.

Can I cancel anytime?

Yes. Cancel from the dashboard. We don't charge a cancellation fee, we don't lock data, and we will export your data to you on request before deletion. data to you on request before deletion.

How do you handle backups?

Every customer instance is backed up daily to a separate region from the primary. We test restores. You can request a restore at any backup point within the retention window — usually 7 days for daily backups.

Where is my data stored?

Your application data sits in the region you choose at provisioning — 21 datacenter locations across six continents. Account-level data (billing, account email, support ticket history) is processed centrally. Application data region is picked by you, per app.

What's the SLA?

99.9% uptime SLA on every app, every tenant. Service credits are documented at danian.co/service-level-agreement. The status page is located at status.danian.co.

How does scaling work?

When your tenant approaches the resource ceiling — the base tier holds 1 vCPU/RAM, 30 GB storage — we notify you. Resource upgrades happen with your explicit consent; we will not upgrade your tenant or charge you without it.

What happens if my card fails?

We wait. We don't suspend the app or delete your data on the first failed charge. We email you, you fix the card on file, and we continue.

What about taxes and invoicing?

Invoices can be downloaded from the billing dashboard in PDF the day each charge succeeds. EU VAT is added where applicable and the VAT-reverse-charge regime applies for VAT-registered businesses with a valid number.

Which apps are in the catalog?

150+ open-source apps across automation, team chat, file sync, analytics, AI, password management, email marketing, dev tools, project management, smart home, CMS, and federated social. See the full catalog →

Do I get terminal access to my instance?

Yes. Every instance comes with a web-based terminal and a file manager in your DANIAN management dashboard. Useful for managing your data and customizations.

What if I outgrow €9 or the per-app resources?

Resources scale with your usage. If your app needs more vCPU, RAM, or storage, we add it — and we ask first before any change to your plan. €9 is the floor; resource-heavy workloads may price higher, but you'll always know in advance.

Is there a Partner or Affiliate program?

Yes. We have both a Partner program and an Affiliate program available. Anybody can sign up.

Is there a contract or minimum commitment?

No contract. No minimum commitment. Cancel anytime from the dashboard with one click. The 7-day free trial requires no credit card. After the trial converts to paid, you can still cancel at any month without notice or penalty.
