Jobber Canada Review (2026): pricing, payments, and who it fits
Jobber is Edmonton-built job management software for home-service businesses: quoting, scheduling, invoicing and payments in one app, with a client hub that books, reminds and chases on your behalf. This review prices it from Jobber's own pages, says plainly that those prices are in US dollars, and is honest about the one gap that decides it for a Xero shop.

Count the owner, the office, and every tech who quotes or invoices from the field. Crew members who only see their schedule still need a seat. Jobber prices Connect, Grow and Plus by team-size band (1, 2 to 5, 6 to 10, 11 to 15) and quotes 16 or more; Core is listed for one person only.
Jobber publishes every price in US dollars and shows no Canadian price list, so your Canadian-dollar cost moves with the exchange rate. Every plan starts with a 14-day free trial on Grow, no credit card needed, and monthly plans cancel anytime; annual plans are billed for the year upfront. Jobber runs no discount or promo code through us.
Lawn care, cleaning, HVAC, plumbing, electrical, painting and other home-service businesses with a crew in the field, an office that books and invoices, books in QuickBooks Online, and clients who expect online booking, reminders and a portal to pay from.
Businesses that keep their books in Xero and want a native two-way sync, solo operators who only need quotes and invoices and would rather pay a flat Canadian-dollar price, and project-based contractors who bill on progress claims and track supplier bills against each job.
Jobber is the most complete job-management app we see Canadian home-service crews use, and the client hub is the reason: booking, reminders, follow-ups and payment collection happen without the office chasing. Price it honestly, in US dollars, with a seat for everyone who quotes or invoices, and it is still good value for a crew of three or more on QuickBooks Online. If your accountant works in Xero, or you want one Canadian-dollar price per user, Tradify is the comparison to make before you commit. Take the 14-day trial on Grow; it needs no card.
Is Jobber worth it for a Canadian home-service business?
Yes, if you run crews that quote, schedule and invoice from the field. Jobber was founded in Edmonton in 2011, is used by more than 400,000 service pros, and puts quoting, scheduling, dispatch, invoicing, online booking, automated reminders and payments in one app, with Jobber Payments available in Canada. Two things to know before you sign up: every price is published in US dollars (Core $29, Connect $99, Grow $149, Plus $399 a month billed annually for one person, stepping up by team size: Connect is $149 for 2 to 5 people and $229 for 6 to 10), and the accounting sync is QuickBooks Online only. A business on Xero should compare Tradify, which syncs to Xero on every plan and prices per user in Canadian dollars. The 14-day trial gives full Grow access with no credit card.
What Jobber does well, and where it stops
Feature by feature from Jobber's own pricing and feature pages as of September 2026, with the per-plan gates that decide the price.
Professional quotes on every plan; Grow adds optional line items and images so the client picks the upgrade themselves, plus automated quote follow-ups from Connect.
Drag-and-drop calendar, routing, and real-time notifications to the crew's phones. Jobs carry checklists from Connect and job costing from Grow.
Online booking, automated appointment reminders, "on my way" texts, invoice follow-ups and a client portal where customers approve quotes and pay. Two-way SMS arrives on Grow.
Cards online and in person, bank payments, automatic payment collection from Connect, and payouts on a two-business-day rolling window. The published rates are 2.9% plus 30 cents on cards and 1% on bank payments; Canadian rates appear in your account settings.
Performance reporting on every plan; Grow adds job costing against quoted amounts and automatic time tracking; Plus automates the costing.
Founded in Edmonton in 2011, with offices in Canada and the US, and more than 400,000 service pros on the platform across 50-plus industries: lawn care, cleaning, HVAC, plumbing, electrical, painting and more.
The plan table changes with the size of the crew: one person, 2 to 5, 6 to 10, 11 to 15, and a quote at 16 or more. Connect runs US$99, $149, $229 and $299 across those bands, and Core is listed for one person only.
Two-way sync of clients, invoices and payments with QuickBooks Online from the Connect plan. There is no native Xero integration on Jobber's integrations page, which matters for Xero shops.
Where Jobber wins, and where a CPA hesitates
Jobber vs Tradify
The two job-management platforms Canadian trades ask us about. Jobber is priced per plan in US dollars, stepped by team size; Tradify is priced per user in Canadian dollars and syncs to Xero on every plan. Figures from each vendor's own pricing page, September 2026.
The full head-to-head, with the cost of a 1, 3 and 6-person crew on each and the Xero question answered, is in Jobber vs Tradify for Canadian trades. For payroll once the crew grows, see the Canadian payroll price index.
Jobber pricing for Canadian businesses (2026)
Four plans, published in US dollars. The automation you want decides the tier and the size of the crew decides the step; the prices shown are for one person.
One user. The quote-schedule-invoice loop with online payments, a website and reporting. $49 month to month.
One user; $149 for 2 to 5 people, $229 for 6 to 10, $299 for 11 to 15. The tier where the client hub starts working for you. $139 month to month.
One user; $229 for 2 to 5 people, $299 for 6 to 10, $399 for 11 to 15. Job costing, upsells and two-way texting. $199 month to month.
Up to five users; $449 for 6 to 10, $529 for 11 to 15. The add-ons bundled in, with dedicated onboarding. $499 month to month.
Note: Every price is published in US dollars at getjobber.com/pricing, read on 7 September 2026 and re-read on 11 September 2026, before tax; Jobber shows no Canadian price list, so the Canadian-dollar cost moves with the exchange rate. Annual billing is charged for the year upfront; monthly plans cancel anytime. Add-ons: Marketing Suite $99, AI Receptionist $29 and Pipeline $49 a month. Jobber runs no discount or promo code; the 14-day trial gives full Grow access with no credit card.
From signup to your first paid job
Everyone who quotes, invoices or checks a schedule counts toward the band, and the steps sit at 6 and 11 people. Connect is $149 up to five people and $229 from six, so the sixth login costs $80 a month more, not $29. Know which side of a step you sit on before you pick the plan.
No card. You get full Grow access for 14 days, so test job costing and two-way SMS even if you expect to land on Connect.
Add GST/HST (and PST or QST where they apply) to your invoice defaults before the first quote goes out, then turn on Jobber Payments and read your Canadian rates in Settings.
Map your income and payment accounts once so clients, invoices and payments sync both ways. If your books are in Xero, decide now whether Zapier is acceptable or whether Tradify is the better fit.
Online booking, reminders, quote follow-ups and automatic payment collection are the features that pay for Connect. Switch them on in the first week, not the third month.
Jobber does not file GST/HST or run payroll. Pair it with Wagepoint for CRA remittances and Dext for supply and fuel receipts, and let the bookkeeper reconcile from QuickBooks.
Jobber runs the jobs. Something else has to run the books.
Jobber invoices and collects; it does not file GST/HST, run payroll or keep the receipts the CRA asks for. The setup we see work for a Canadian crew is Jobber synced to QuickBooks Online or Xero, Wagepoint for payroll with automatic CRA remittances, and Dext for the fuel and supply receipts.
How we reviewed it
Every price, plan feature, fee and eligibility statement on this page comes from Jobber's own pages, read on 7 September 2026, with the pricing page re-read on 11 September 2026: the pricing page, the features and integrations pages, the about and FAQ pages, and the Jobber Payments article in its help centre. The Edmonton founding and the co-founders are from Globe and Mail, CBC and The Logic reporting. The judgement calls come from preparing books and year-ends for Canadian trades businesses that run Jobber alongside QuickBooks Online, and from the ones that chose Tradify because their accountant works in Xero. Jobber pays us a referral fee through a direct link; that does not change a number on this page, and where Jobber does not publish a Canadian figure we say so rather than estimate it.
