Intelligent finance starts with connected systems

Aritma is a B2B fintech company that connects banks and ERPs, specialising in automation that reduces manual work and gives finance teams better control.

Where we came from

Our story started in the 1980s, when our founder, Jan Ove Seth, saw a problem firsthand while working in finance: banks and businesses were running payments through completely different systems, creating unnecessary friction, manual work, and disconnected data.

Aritma was established in 1990 to bridge that gap.

What began as a way to help banks and businesses communicate better has grown into a platform for modern financial workflows — helping finance teams move data more easily, automate critical processes, and work with greater control across banking and accounting.
