Dubsado costs vs KadePay: plans, fees and usage

How Dubsado prices the reviewed offering

Premier adds scheduling, workflows, public proposals, and integrations beyond Starter. Additional brands and larger user groups carry charges. Payment processing is a separate cost dimension, with regional and method conditions.

Pricing model: Starter or Premier subscription plus team, brand, and processing costs

• Starter versus Premier workflow requirements
• Additional business brands
• Team-user count
• Billing term
• Card, ACH, BNPL, and payout charges

Build a like-for-like quote

For creative, professional, event, and specialized service businesses managing client projects, a useful budget follows the work you actually perform. Ask each provider to price the same staff count, payment channel and required customer tasks. Include the integrations needed for the complete setup, and keep one-time migration work separate from recurring monthly charges.

• Does the business need a formal proposal and project portal for every engagement?
• Will Premier scheduling and workflow automation be required from day one?
• Are repeat services billed as milestones, recurring charges, or visit credits?

Put the KadePay side in the same budget

Choose the applicable KadePay plan and read the complete pricing table. Distinguish terminal and manually entered card rates, appointment usage, session or ticket charges and optional payment methods. Recurring billing and multiple users depend on the plan. Do not compare a card-present rate on one side with an online or manual-entry rate on the other.

If Dubsado connects to a separate processor, include that processor in its budget. If KadePay uses a processor for your payment setup, include the applicable full payment charges and avoid counting the same charge twice. A software subscription and a transaction processing charge describe different costs.

Your monthly cost worksheet

Before you accept a quote

Confirm the renewal period, location or staff limits, optional add-ons and any migration work. Ask the provider to demonstrate the exact workflow in your quote. An advertised starting price is not a promise that every feature or every payment method is included.
