What is the Charge for White Label Bookkeeping?
White label bookkeeping allows CPA firms and bookkeeping providers to offer outsourced bookkeeping services under their own brand. While pricing varies based on volume, scope, and turnaround time, most white label bookkeeping providers charge between $100 and $300 per client per month, depending on complexity.
This model allows firms to deliver high-quality service without hiring or training in-house staff – and without clients ever knowing it’s outsourced.
How White Label Pricing Works
White label pricing usually follows one of three models:
- Flat Monthly Rate per Client:
- Simple businesses: $100-$150/month
- Medium complexity: $150-$250/month
- High complexity: $250-$350/month
- Volume-Based Tiering:
Pricing drops with scale. A firm handling 50 clients may pay $110/client, while a 200-client firm might pay only $80/client. - Hourly/Task-Based Billing:
Some white label vendors charge per task – e.g., reconciliations, invoicing, or payroll. Less common, harder to scale.
At RemoteBooksOnline, we offer flat-fee white label pricing for simplicity and margin protection. CPA firms mark up the service as desired and retain the client relationship.

Test Case Example
A CPA firm in Texas receives 40 last-minute tax season requests from small businesses with no books. Their internal team is already overwhelmed.
They use RemoteBooksOnline’s white label portal. Clients upload their bank statements directly, the outsourced team handles full catch-up bookkeeping, and the CPA firm files taxes on time – with no overtime costs or staff burnout. The firm charges $400 per client, pays $150 to RBO, and keeps $250 in profit per file.
