Members no longer have to manually change the rates of their service for each individual customer. Features include: additional reporting insights; the ability to schedule a rate change to occur on a future date; and the capability to select specific customers to receive price increase updates.

Jobber Tips & Referrals

Jobber’s tipping feature makes it easier to motivate high-performing team members. Business owners control when to offer customers the ability to add a tip.

Clients can choose a percent-based tip (10%, 15%, or 20%) or a custom amount. When tipping is presented as an option, nearly one in four homeowners opt to provide one. The referrals feature allows clients to promote your work to friends and family. The ‘refer a friend’ prompt is displayed in Jobber’s online customer portal, encouraging clients to share booking links via email, text, or social media.
