Housecall Pro pricing (2026): plans, costs & features
Every plan, user limit, and fee, taken from Housecall Pro’s own pricing page and help center on October 24, 2026.
Housecall Pro has three plans. Basic costs $59/month billed annually or $79 month-to-month for one user. Essentials costs $149/month billed annually or $189 month-to-month for up to 5 users. MAX costs $299/month billed annually or $329 month-to-month for up to 8 users, plus $35/month for each extra user. There is no free plan, but there is a 14-day free trial of MAX, and Housecall Pro does not require a long-term contract. The plan you need usually comes down to two things: team size and accounting. QuickBooks Online sync starts on Essentials, so a one-person business that needs QuickBooks pays $149, not $59. On top of the subscription, card payments cost from 2.59% in person and 1% by bank transfer.

Housecall Pro plans and prices
Prices in USD, excluding sales tax, from Housecall Pro’s pricing page on October 24, 2026. Housecall Pro also shows short introductory offers on each plan; the prices below are the regular rates.
| Plan | Billed annually | Month-to-month | Users included | What it adds |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Basic | $59/mo | $79/mo | 1 | Scheduling, dispatch, estimates, invoicing, payments, price book, online booking, review management |
| Essentials | $149/mo | $189/mo | Up to 5 | Adds routes, flat-rate pricing, checklist automations, employee GPS tracking, commissions, QuickBooks Online sync |
| MAX | $299/mo | $329/mo | Up to 8 (+$35/mo per extra user) | Adds sales proposal tool, Recurring Service Plans, route optimization, open API, dedicated onboarding |
What each Housecall Pro plan includes
Basic ($59/month billed annually, 1 user) covers the core of running jobs: online booking, scheduling and dispatch, estimates and invoicing, payments and consumer financing, a price book, job costing, and review management.
Essentials ($149/month billed annually, up to 5 users) adds routes, flat-rate pricing, checklist automations, photo reports and annotations, employee GPS tracking, commissions, and QuickBooks Online sync. For most small teams this is the plan where accounting stops being manual.
MAX ($299/month billed annually, up to 8 users) adds a sales proposal tool (which Housecall Pro values at $40/month), Recurring Service Plans, route optimization, open API access, a dedicated onboarding specialist, and escalated phone support. If you sell maintenance memberships, note that Recurring Service Plans are a MAX feature.
Every plan includes live phone and chat support, the iOS and Android mobile app (in English and Spanish), offline viewing in the app, and access to business and consumer financing.
Annual vs monthly billing: what you save
Annual billing lowers the monthly rate on every plan. Over a year, that works out to:
- Basic: $708 a year billed annually vs $948 month-to-month, a $240 difference.
- Essentials: $1,788 a year billed annually vs $2,268 month-to-month, a $480 difference.
- MAX: $3,588 a year billed annually vs $3,948 month-to-month, a $360 difference.
Because there is no long-term contract requirement, month-to-month is a reasonable way to test the software on real jobs after the trial before committing to annual billing.
What Housecall Pro costs by team size
Solo operator: Basic at $59/month billed annually, or Essentials at $149 if you need QuickBooks sync or flat-rate pricing. Two to five people: Essentials at $149/month covers up to five users. Six to eight people: MAX at $299/month covers up to eight. Nine or more: MAX plus $35/month for each user over eight; a ten-person team would be about $369/month if that rate applies to your billing term. The pricing page lists an extra-user price only for MAX, so if you need two users on Basic or six on Essentials, ask Housecall Pro what that costs before you sign up.
Add-ons and extra costs
Housecall Pro lists these add-ons on its pricing page without prices: CSR AI, Sales Proposal Tool, Pipeline, Payroll, Accounting, Business Coaching, Voice, Campaigns, vehicle GPS and dashcams, Tap to Pay, and Websites. Because no add-on prices are published there, get a written quote for any add-on you plan to use. The Sales Proposal Tool is already included on MAX. QuickBooks itself is a separate subscription: Housecall Pro’s QuickBooks page notes that QuickBooks is not included in a Housecall Pro subscription.
Payment processing fees
From Housecall Pro’s help center, checked October 24, 2026. Mobile check deposit is free; consumer financing starts at 3.9%.
| Payment method | Fee |
|---|---|
| Card in person (card reader or Tap to Pay) | 2.59% |
| Card entered by the customer on an online invoice | 2.99% |
| PayPal or Venmo via invoice | 2.99% |
| Card keyed in, scanned in the app, or saved on file | 3.49% |
| American Express and commercial cards (any method) | 3.49% |
| ACH / bank transfer | 1% |
| PayPal Pay Later or Klarna | 4.99% |
| Instapay (instant payout) | +1% |
| Tap to Pay on Mobile | $5 per active device per month |
Where the customer pays matters as much as the plan. On a $1,000 invoice, a card tapped on site costs $25.90, the same card entered on an online invoice costs $29.90, and a saved card or American Express costs $34.90. A bank payment costs $10.
Housecall Pro and QuickBooks
QuickBooks Online sync is listed as an Essentials feature, so it is included on Essentials and MAX but not on Basic. Housecall Pro’s QuickBooks page says it integrates with both QuickBooks Online and QuickBooks Desktop, and that invoices, customers, line items, and payments push into QuickBooks automatically. That page does not name the plan required for Desktop, so if you run QuickBooks Desktop, confirm it with Housecall Pro for the plan you are buying. To see how other field service tools handle QuickBooks Online and Desktop, read our FSM software for QuickBooks guide.
Pros and cons of Housecall Pro’s pricing
Pros
- All three plans have published prices, unlike quote-only tools such as ServiceTitan.

- Essentials covers up to five users for one price, which is good value for a small crew.
- Review management and online booking are included from Basic.
Cons

- Add-on prices are not published on the pricing page.
- Keyed-in, saved, and American Express card payments cost 3.49%.
Housecall Pro vs Jobber on price
For a single user, Jobber is cheaper to start: its Core plan is $29/month billed annually, against $59 for Housecall Pro Basic. Neither entry plan includes QuickBooks sync, and Jobber syncs with QuickBooks Online only, while Housecall Pro also lists Desktop support. Every Jobber plan and team-size price is in our Jobber pricing guide. The full side-by-side, including fees and features, is in our Jobber vs Housecall Pro comparison, and the full FSM software comparison covers the other major platforms.
Is Housecall Pro worth the price?
It fits best when you run a small home-service team, want published prices instead of a sales quote, and can use what Essentials includes. A solo operator who only needs scheduling and invoicing may pay less elsewhere; a larger operation that needs more than eight users or enterprise reporting should also compare quote-based platforms. For trade-specific picks, see our guides to HVAC field service management software and plumbing software, or start with field service software for small business.
Frequently asked questions
With annual billing, Housecall Pro costs $59/month for Basic (1 user), $149/month for Essentials (up to 5 users), and $299/month for MAX (up to 8 users). Month-to-month, the same plans are $79, $189, and $329. Prices were checked on Housecall Pro’s pricing page on October 24, 2026 and exclude sales tax.
There is no free plan. Housecall Pro offers a 14-day free trial with full access to its MAX plan, and its pricing page says your data is kept if the trial expires so you can resume later by adding billing details.
Card payments start at 2.59% in person. Cards entered by the customer on an online invoice are 2.99%, and keyed-in, saved, American Express, and commercial cards are 3.49%. Bank (ACH) payments are 1%. Instant payouts add 1%.
The pricing page lists $35/month per additional user on the MAX plan, which includes 8 users. It does not list an extra-user price for Basic (1 user) or Essentials (up to 5 users), so ask Housecall Pro before adding users on those plans.
No. Housecall Pro’s pricing FAQ says it does not require long-term contracts and that cancelling is simple. You can still choose annual billing, which costs less per month than month-to-month.
QuickBooks Online sync is listed on Essentials ($149/month billed annually) and therefore MAX, not on Basic. Housecall Pro’s QuickBooks page says it also integrates with QuickBooks Desktop but does not name the plan required, so confirm Desktop support for your plan with Housecall Pro.
Not for one user. Jobber Core starts at $29/month billed annually versus $59/month for Housecall Pro Basic. The difference narrows as your team grows and as you add features such as QuickBooks sync, which neither entry plan includes. Compare both at your exact team size.
