What the price is based on
Pricing is a flat monthly fee for the whole company, not per user or per technician: the vendor states outright that it places no cap on the number of employees in an account.
Yardbook does not restrict the number of Employees you can have.
Adding a user
Adding a technician costs nothing and forces no plan change, because employee records are unlimited and the plan fee is flat; employees get either admin or limited mobile access.

Card processing rate
Card payments run through Stripe at Stripe's own published rate, and free accounts pay Yardbook a further 1% on online payments, which the two paid plans waive; you can also pass fees to customers.
Stripe charges 2.9% for credit card processing and 30 cents per swipe. ... For premium paid accounts (Business Plan and Enterprise Plan), this is the…

Maintenance plans and recurring jobs

AI features
AI help is narrow and build-time rather than conversational: an AI Assist that drafts custom forms and another that fills in chemical product details; nothing writes quotes or answers office questions.
Build Forms with AI Assist
QuickBooks Online
QuickBooks sync sits on the top Enterprise plan only, pushes invoices and payments one way to QuickBooks Online, and the vendor's own tutorial still heads it a beta feature.
Currently, we only sync with Quickbooks Online. ... Is the sync process one way? Yes. This means you can send data from Yardbook to Quickbooks.
