From Jobber pricing, checked October 8, 2026. A cell names the lowest plan that lists the feature; "Not listed" means we did not see it, so ask. Jobber's pricing page blocks a plain fetch and changes its prices with a team size picker, so we read it in a real browser. The $29 a month per added user is in the note behind each plan's user count. Prices are per month in US dollars and change often, so check the page before you buy.

Worked example: weekly service
Weekly service: 30 minutes at the pool, 15 minutes of driving, $6 of chemicals a stop, on the free maintenance plan pricing calculator, comes to $1,675 a year ($139.58 a month, 52 visits).
| Step | The math |
|---|---|
| Labor per visit | (0.5 on site + 0.25 driving) × $20.00 = $15.00 |
| Cost per visit | $15.00 + $6.00 parts = $21.00 |
| Repair discount | 0% off $0 of repairs = $0.00 |
| Cost per member a year | 52 × $21.00 + $0.00 = $1,092.00 |
| Price | $1,092.00 ÷ (1 − 15% overhead − 20% profit) = $1,680.00, quoted as $1,675 |
| Members one tech can serve | 1,500 hrs ÷ 39 hrs per member = 38 |
At $1,675 a member a year, it takes about 1 plan members to pay for a year of Jobber Connect ($1,188). Koira Front Office ($5,988 a year) takes about 4.
