Last updated October 28, 2026
PaceCount has three paid plans: Fundamentals ($9.99/mo), Essentials ($29/mo), and Pro ($59/mo). Fundamentals is the entry plan for invoicing, deposits, and e-signatures. Essentials is the same work with more room. Pro adds reporting, advanced scheduling, SMS (rolling out), and broadcasts. Live public pricing also lives at pacecount.net/pricing.
What happens on a new workspace?
No card is required today. PaceCount requires a card 3 days after you create the workspace. If you don't add one, the workspace locks until you choose Fundamentals, Essentials, or Pro at checkout.
Workspaces created before [cutover date] on the legacy Free plan keep it.
What is included in each plan?
- Fundamentals — invoicing, deposits, service agreements, e-signatures (5/mo), and photo uploads. Staff is not included. 150 customers, 60 appointments a month, and 5 GB storage.
- Essentials — everything in Fundamentals, plus staff (up to 2), e-signatures (10/mo), 500 customers, 200 appointments a month, 20 GB storage, Automations (beta), and copying new paid invoices into a connected QuickBooks company.
- Pro — everything in Essentials plus reporting, Broadcasts (1,500 emails/mo), advanced scheduling, SMS (rolling out), higher e-signature caps (50/mo), staff up to 10, unlimited customers and appointments, and 40 GB storage. Events is in beta.

- The book of work grew? Essentials keeps those tools and raises the caps.
- Want insights, marketing, and automation? Pro unlocks reporting, Broadcasts, advanced scheduling, and the newest betas.
How do I hide features I do not use?
- Open Settings → Workspace Features.
- Turn off tools you are not using.
- Turn them back on anytime in the same place.
Locked tabs stay visible with a lock when the only gap is your plan — that is an upgrade path.
Common questions
Will I lose data if I change plans?
Switching among Fundamentals, Essentials, and Pro removes access to features that are not on the plan you pick. There is no downgrade to Free. This article does not describe what a paid cancellation does to stored records.
Why is a feature I need off?
First check Settings → Licensing — if the tab is locked, upgrade. If you already have the plan but the tool disappeared, turn it back on in Settings → Workspace Features.
Is there a military discount?
Yes — 30% off Essentials and Pro when Support verifies eligibility. The discount does not apply to Fundamentals. See Support.
When do I need a card?
No card is required today. PaceCount requires a card 3 days after you create the workspace. If you don't add one, the workspace locks until you choose Fundamentals, Essentials, or Pro at checkout.
