Pricing questions, answered

Billing, regions, and what’s included.

How is CalHire billed in India?
Indian customers are billed in US dollars through Paddle, which acts as merchant of record, accepts international credit and debit cards, and issues the tax invoice for each payment. Any applicable tax is calculated and shown at checkout. Rupee pricing through Razorpay — with UPI, net banking and NACH mandates — is not available yet; the amount charged is always confirmed in USD by our billing system before you pay.
Are candidates really free?
Yes. Creating a verified profile, taking the assessment, and applying are free for candidates forever. Candidate Premium ($9.99/mo) is an optional upgrade for coaching tools like AI mock interviews, profile reviews, and salary benchmarking — and, on the paid plan, live interviews with the CalHire team that can earn an Advanced vetted badge.
How does regional pricing work?
Every market is billed in US dollars through Paddle for now, so the price you see is the price your card is charged wherever you are. Each market still has its own page — /pricing/in for India and /pricing/ae for the UAE — so you can open, link to or share a specific one, and local currency pricing will appear there when it is available. The amount you pay is always confirmed by our billing system at checkout.
Can I change or cancel my plan?
Yes. You can upgrade, downgrade, or cancel anytime from billing settings. Changes are prorated, and cancellation stops future renewals while keeping your plan active until the end of the current period.
What counts as a “candidate”?
A candidate is a unique applicant in your pipelines within a billing month. Re-engaging an existing candidate does not count again.
What happens if we go past the monthly candidate cap?
On Business, the 5,000-candidate monthly cap is a fair-use cap: past it, each extra candidate is billed at $1.00 per extra candidate. Enterprise works the same way from 20,000 candidates, at a rate agreed in your quote. On other plans the cap is a limit — upgrade when you need more.
Is there a fee when we hire someone?
Not for direct hires. When a candidate applied to your job, there is no fee beyond your plan. A one-time placement fee (a standard 10% of the hired candidate’s salary, unless your plan or agreement sets a different rate) applies only to agency placements and to hires from marketplace outreach, where you invite a candidate from the talent marketplace. The percentage is shown before you send the outreach offer, and the fee is charged once, when the candidate accepts an offer.
Do you offer annual discounts?
Yes. An annual subscription costs 2 months less than paying monthly for a year — about 17% off — on every paid plan, including Candidate Premium.
What is included in Enterprise, Emiratisation and Agency pricing?
All three are sales-led and quoted for your organization. Enterprise adds identity verification and Emiratisation quota reporting to everything in Business, with residency, white-label, a dedicated CSM, and an SLA available. Emiratisation (UAE only) is built for UAE mainland hiring toward the Emiratisation quota, with quota reporting. Agency is priced per recruiter seat, with commission, take-rate, and invoicing tooling. Talk to our team for a quote.
Can I get a refund?
Self-serve monthly and annual plans include a 14-day money-back guarantee on your first purchase. See the Refund Policy for details.
