Why Pay-As-You-Go?

Traditional pet software charges massive subscriptions regardless of how much business you do. We think that's backwards.

Predictable Costs

Know exactly what you'll pay - just 1.4% of what you earn. Your costs scale with your revenue.

No Overhead Pressure

Quiet month? Lower costs. No stress about paying $200-400 in subscriptions during slow periods.

Pass Fees to Customers

Add a booking fee to invoices and offset costs entirely. Essentially free software.

How We Compare

Other pet software charges subscription fees, then adds percentage fees on top, plus extra for modules like SMS, packages, and courses. Costs blow out fast.

Don't just take our word for it

I am very excited and glad I went with them, the pricing structure makes sense and they are working very hard to make this the number one pet booking system in Australia. The customer service is out of this world, they focus on what animal businesses actually need and listen to their clients.

Petboost has truly been a saving grace! As a platform that's actually all-in-one, it has streamlined so much, saving me time and reducing costs. One of the biggest time-savers has been the automated invoicing feature. I no longer have to chase clients for late payments or spend hours preparing invoices manually.

Just try it – you won't look back. The moment I turned Petboost on for my business, I never looked back. I haven't had a single missed payment or no-show. I no longer have to manually reconcile payments either. Now I can finally get time to do other things in my business instead of sitting in front of a screen for 'admin days'.
