Chippie vs Jobber

For small AU, UK, and European crews, yes. Jobber Core is $49 USD a month for a single user; Chippie Pro is $25 AUD a month including 2 users. Extra users cost $29 USD a month on Jobber versus $10 AUD on Chippie's Team plan. Because Jobber bills in US dollars, non-US customers also pay currency conversion and any card foreign-transaction fees on top.

No. Jobber prices exclusively in US dollars worldwide; as of July 2026 it publishes no AUD, GBP, or EUR pricing. Your bank converts each charge and may add a foreign-transaction fee. Chippie prices natively in AUD for Australia, GBP for the UK, and EUR for Europe.

Only generically. Per Jobber's own help centre, tax setup is a configurable field: you enter a tax name (such as GST), a tax ID number, and a default rate. There's no native BAS reporting or ABN validation, so Australian users typically layer Xero or QuickBooks on top. Chippie is built for Australian trades and invoices with GST natively in AUD.

No. Jobber offers a 14-day free trial with the Grow plan's feature set and no credit card required, but no ongoing free tier. Chippie has a genuinely free plan: 20 jobs a month, free forever.

Partly. Jobber shipped an offline mode around January 2026: timers, job forms, checklists, notes, attachments, and photos work offline and sync automatically when you're back in signal. It doesn't cover creating new jobs, quotes, or invoices offline, editing already-saved records, or capturing signatures. Chippie's offline mode is in development and not shipped yet, so today Jobber's shipped offline scope goes further than Chippie's.

$29 USD per user per month on any tier, once you exceed your plan's included seats. Jobber sells seats in bands of 1, 5, 10, or 15 users, so growing from 5 to 6 people means either paying the overage or stepping up a band. Chippie's Team plan includes 4 users and extra users are $10 AUD a month each.

Per Jobber's pricing page: Marketing Suite at $79 USD a month, AI Receptionist at $29 USD a month (30 conversations included, $0.79 per extra; unlimited only on the Plus tier), and Pipeline at $49 USD a month. Card payment processing is 2.9% plus 30 cents.

The most commonly reported complaints across review sites are QuickBooks and Xero sync issues, steep price jumps between tiers, add-on costs stacking up, and basic route planning. For balance: Jobber is a well-liked product overall, rating 4.6/5 on Capterra across more than 1,400 reviews and 4.8/5 on the Apple App Store.

Choose Jobber if you're in the US or Canada where its USD pricing and North American tax handling fit naturally, you want its AI Receptionist answering calls, or you value its polished all-in-one workflow, On My Way customer texting, and Client Hub. It's a mature, well-funded product rating 4.6/5 on Capterra. Chippie is the better fit for Australian, UK, and European crews of 1 to 10 who want local-currency pricing with GST or VAT handled.
