QuickBooks Bookkeeping Pricing for Small Businesses
Transparent, Affordable, Scalable. QuickBooks Bookkeeping Pricing for Small Businesses, Startups, and Growing Teams.
How QuickBooks Bookkeeping Pricing Works
QuickBooks bookkeeping is priced as a flat monthly service, not hourly billing. This means you know your cost in advance and avoid unpredictable invoices.
Pricing is based on three primary factors.
- Transaction volume per month
- Number of bank and credit card accounts
- Complexity such as payroll, sales tax, inventory, or multiple entities
Businesses with clean and current QuickBooks files qualify for lower monthly pricing. Businesses with errors or missing months may require cleanup before transitioning to monthly bookkeeping.
Typical Monthly Pricing Ranges
Most small businesses fall into one of the following monthly pricing ranges.
Starter businesses with low transaction volume typically pay between $150 and $250 per month.- Growing businesses with higher volume or payroll typically range from $250 to $500 per month.
- Complex businesses with inventory, multiple entities, or sales tax reporting are priced higher based on scope.
Exact pricing is determined after reviewing your QuickBooks file.

Your price may be lower if your business has clean books, low volume, and simple reporting needs.
QuickBooks Cleanup and Catch Up Costs
If your QuickBooks file is inaccurate, cleanup may be required before monthly bookkeeping begins. Cleanup pricing depends on how many months are affected and the type of errors present. Cleanup is always quoted separately and completed before monthly pricing applies. Businesses that are missing months of data may require catch up bookkeeping before transitioning to monthly service. Once cleanup or catch up is completed, monthly pricing applies going forward.
