How we price

Four commitments we put in writing.

No setup fees.

Migrating in from another platform? We don't charge implementation fees, ever.

No long contracts.

Monthly is monthly. Annual is annual. Cancel from the dashboard, not by emailing a sales rep.

Transparent line items.

Every charge on your invoice is broken down by unit. We don't bury features behind hidden tiers.

Pricing FAQ

The questions everybody asks.

One rentable space. A single-family home is one unit. A duplex is two units. A 12-unit building is twelve units. Vacant units that are listed and ready to rent count too. Units off the market for renovation longer than 30 days can be paused.

No. Migrating in from another platform is free, our team helps you import data without charge. Subscription is month-to-month or annual and can be cancelled anytime from your dashboard.

Yes, anytime, from the dashboard. Pausing keeps your data and history intact while reducing your bill to $0 for the months you're paused. You can re-activate later without losing prior records.

Major credit and debit cards via Stripe Checkout. ACH bank transfer is available on annual plans. We never store your card on our servers.

Adding units charges a prorated amount for the rest of the billing period. Removing units credits your next invoice. There are no penalty fees in either direction.

If you'd rather have a person handle migration, training, custom integrations, or a faster SLA, Concierge sits on top of Prime. Pricing typically starts at $200/month plus one-time onboarding. Drop us a note to scope it.
