Jersey Watch pricing, asked and answered
What does Jersey Watch cost?
Jersey Watch charges 3.5% + $1 on every paid registration, plus card processing on top. Single plan: $19 first month, then $348/year (~$29/mo, annual-billed; no separate monthly price shown). Online payment processing 3.5% + $1 per transaction; org chooses to pass to registrants or absorb. No setup fee.
What would Jersey Watch cost me over a year?
On 1,000 registrations at $75, Jersey Watch's published fees come to about $3,625 a year (3.5% of $75 + $1 = $3.63 a registration, 1,000 times). Built and owned, that year is about $362.50 — a tenth of what you pay now — and you keep the $3,263 difference.
Who pays Jersey Watch's fee — me or my customer?
You can choose: absorb it out of your payout, or add it to what the buyer pays at checkout. Either way somebody is paying it every registration.
Is card processing included?
No. Taking the money is a separate cost, normally around 2.9% + $0.30 an order, and it is charged whoever you use. The figures on this page leave processing out on both sides so the comparison is like for like.
Is there a cheaper alternative to Jersey Watch?
That depends on what you actually use it for. Most businesses use a small part of a platform like this — take the money, hold the record, send the confirmation, show the list. That part can be built once and owned, and we price it against your own bill: a tenth of what you pay now, instead of a share of every registration forever. You keep the code and the data, and the old system keeps running beside it until the new one is proven.
