How pricing works
The number of bank, card and payment transactions each month is the biggest driver of time and cost.
More accounts, payment processors, entities, classes or inventory add review and reconciliation work.
Current books go straight onto a monthly plan. Books that are behind or messy need catch-up or cleanup first.
Payroll, sales tax, AP/AR and reporting needs change the scope. We only quote what you actually need.
The U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics reports a median wage of about $50,670 a year for bookkeeping, accounting and auditing clerks (May 2025). Add employer payroll taxes, benefits and software and an in-house bookkeeper typically costs well over $4,000 a month. Most small businesses need a fraction of that time, which is why a monthly plan from $149 to $549 is usually the better value. Run your own numbers with the employee cost calculator.
