The real cost of other pet software
Pet software is usually priced as a base plan for one service, with payments, staff scheduling and messaging sold as add-ons on top. JAP is one flat price per staff band, and the figures below come from published pricing pages.
The true cost: flat price vs. base plan plus add-ons
Pet software is commonly priced as a base plan for the service you run, with payments, staff scheduling and messaging sold separately on top. JAP is one flat price per staff band. The column on the right uses figures published on another provider's own public pricing page. Where a provider does not publish a figure, the cell is left blank and marked, not estimated.

Competitor figures are taken from another pet-care software provider's own published pricing page, retrieved 17 August 2026, and are quoted without adjustment. That provider lists integrated payments, employee scheduling, 2-way SMS and a messaging bundle as add-ons but does not publish a price for any of them, so those cells are left blank. Prices change; check the provider's pricing page before comparing. JAP figures are the tiers on our own pricing page.
You can see the whole price before you talk to anyone
Every JAP tier, its staff limit and everything included is on our pricing page. There is no demo request, no sales call and no quote in between you and the number. Among other providers the picture is mixed: some publish base plan prices, and the add-ons that sit on top of those plans, payments, employee scheduling, SMS and messaging, are commonly quoted on request rather than published. We have only checked this on the providers' own public pricing pages, so we make no claim about every product on the market.

Add staff without your bill creeping up every time. Your tier price stays the same.
No paid add-ons
