Pricing math for a 2-crew washer (4 users)
Monthly billing, list prices from each pricing page on Sep 23, 2026:
- Jobber Core: $49 + 3 x $29 = $136/mo
- Jobber Grow: $199 + 3 x $29 = $286/mo
- Housecall Pro Essentials (5 users): $189/mo monthly, or $149/mo billed annually
Card fees then scale with revenue: on $20,000 a month of card payments, 2.9% + 30c (Jobber) vs 2.59% and up (Housecall Pro) is a difference of at least about $62 a month before per-transaction fees. Check each vendor for the rate that applies to your account.
