Pricing

You pay for the hub. Never for a person.

A hub is the machine that holds your stock — a Mac or a Windows PC, or a tablet you carry. The two are priced separately. The phones are free, and five come with a desktop hub.

A hub is the machine that holds your stock. Two of them, priced separately. The phones are free.

SoftBo Desktop — the hub on a Mac or a PC

Pro

€29 a month · $29

Everything in Plus, plus valuation by FIFO or weighted average, reorder suggestions, several tablets counting at once, and two SoftBo Companion phones.

Plus valuation, reorder, several tablets, and two phones.

The two phones on Pro are in preparation — the tablet cannot pair a phone yet, and this page will say so until it can.

SoftBo Companion is free, and five come with a desktop hub.

The app costs nothing and always will. A desktop hub licence includes five phones counting at the same time. A sixth is €5 a month, five more are €20, ten are €35 — rented from your account, cancelled whenever you like, and never sold inside the app.

Free. Five come with a desktop hub; more are €5 a month each.

What the phones do

No VAT is added, because we are not registered for it. What you see is what you pay. For SoftBo Desktop we are the seller and payment is handled by Stripe. For SoftBo Inventory the seller is Apple or Google, under their terms — which is also who refunds it.

What happens when you stop paying

The question nobody in this category answers, so here it is first.

You keep the app

Pay for twelve months and the version you hold is yours. Stop whenever you like and we send you a build with the cloud removed — no sign-in, no licence check, nothing to expire. It keeps counting for as long as the machine runs.

Twelve paid months and the version you hold is yours — a build with the cloud removed, and nothing in it to expire.

You lose the cloud

The connectors to Odoo, Shopify and the rest, and the account that holds their keys. Those cost us money every year, which is the honest reason there is a subscription at all — and they are exactly what stops.

Your data never moved

It was a file on your machine the whole time, readable with free tools. We cannot lose it, leak it or hold it, and nothing you count is ever sent to us.

A file on your machine the whole time. Nothing you count is ever sent to us.

More phones

Five are included. More are €5 a month each, €20 for five, €35 for ten — rented from your account and cancelled whenever you like. A shop that takes six extra for a January count and drops them in February is using them exactly as intended.

Five included. More are €5 a month each, €20 for five, €35 for ten — cancelled whenever you like.

A second shop

Another machine, another subscription at the same price. Five phones on each.

Your price will not jump

It can move with inflation and no more than five points above it, once a year, never beyond a fixed ceiling — with two months' notice and a free way out. It does not go up because we improved something. The exact wording.

Inflation plus five points at most, once a year, under a fixed ceiling, with two months' notice and a free way out. The wording.

Questions people actually ask

What is a hub?

The one machine that holds the data. SoftBo Desktop is a hub on a Mac or a Windows PC; SoftBo Inventory is a hub on a tablet. Phones pair to a desktop hub over your own network, and they come with it.

Do I need an account?

Yes, and it is used once at first run to deliver your licence, then about once a month to confirm it. Nothing about what you count is ever part of that.

What if I replace the machine?

Release the old one from your account page and install on the new one. No support ticket, no permission, nothing consumed.

Can I change my mind?

A free month first, no card. After that, thirty days from your first payment and we refund it in full, no questions. Cancel any time from your account page — never by writing to us.
