Crew ($39/mo) is perfect for single-location businesses—full marketplace access, shift swapping, team messaging, GPS time tracking, and timesheet exports. Business ($79/mo + $69/location) is for multi-location operations—everything in Crew plus cross-location marketplace, AI auto-scheduling, Square POS integration (more payroll/POS integrations coming soon), payroll-ready CSV exports, and advanced analytics.
Business includes your first location in the base price; additional locations are $69 each per month. For example, a Business plan with 5 locations is $79 + (4 × $69) = $355/month. Annual billing saves 20% on the base fee. Enterprise (contact sales) offers custom per-location pricing.
