Jobber vs Housecall Pro: what the two vendors publish, side by side

2 min

Cover graphic: Housecall Pro's three published monthly prices, 79, 189 and 329 US dollars.

Cover drawn by this site from figures in its own source ledger. Every figure carries the id of the page it was read from and the date it was read.

Both are aimed at the same buyer. They disclose very differently, and the disclosure gap is the most useful thing to know before a trial.

The published record

Tiers. Jobber: Core, Connect, Grow, Plus at USD 49, USD 139-399, USD 199-499 and USD 499-699 monthly with no commitment; USD 29, USD 99-299, USD 149-399 and USD 439-529 billed annually at the standing rate. The introductory annual rates — USD 24, USD 80, USD 120, USD 352 — ran for twelve months on a dated offer for new customers before stepping up to those standing figures; that offer’s stated deadline of August 12 at 11:59 p.m. PT had passed by 13 August 2026, so the standing figures are the ones quoted here. Housecall Pro: Basic, Essentials, Max at USD 79, USD 189, USD 329 monthly; USD 59, USD 149, USD 299 annually, with no introductory period and no renewal step.

Seats. Jobber publishes prices at one, five, ten and fifteen users and USD 29 per additional user per month, and stops publishing above fifteen. Housecall Pro publishes neither.

Processing. Jobber: 2.9% + 30c card, 1% ACH, 2.7% + 30c Tap to Pay. Housecall Pro: card “as low as 2.59%”, 1% on bank payments.

Trial and contract. Housecall Pro publishes 14 days free, no credit card required, and states it does not require long-term contracts. Read 7 August 2026.

What that supports and what it does not

It supports a subscription comparison by headcount for Jobber and not for Housecall Pro. It supports a processing comparison for both. It supports no conclusion whatsoever about which product is better to use.

We have not deployed either. There is no test here, no trial run, no shop that used one and switched. Where this site has an opinion it is about disclosure and arithmetic, which are things you can check from a browser.

The one place the difference is decisive

If you are growing, Jobber lets you price the next five hires today. That is a real, checkable property.

Housecall Pro’s “as low as 2.59%” card rate is, on its face, below Jobber’s flat 2.9%. On a shop putting USD 100,000 a month on cards that gap is worth about USD 310 a month if you actually qualify for the floor. Whether you do is not published, and it is the first question to ask them.

So the honest reading is: one vendor is more predictable on seats, the other advertises a lower card floor. Which matters more depends entirely on your card volume, which is why the calculator asks for it.

Vendor pricing changes without notice. Every figure above carries the date it was read. If a vendor’s current page disagrees with this one, the vendor’s page is right and this one is stale — and that is a bug worth reporting.
