The verdict on record

ServiceM8's pricing model is its verdict: every paid plan allows unlimited users (the free tier is single-user), and you pay for job volume instead, from a genuinely free 30-jobs-a-month tier to £269/month for 1,500+ jobs (ex VAT, re-checked 19 September 2026). For a five-person crew doing 40 jobs a month, that's £25/month against £170+ on per-user rivals. Device fit is no longer a simple 'Apple catch': ServiceM8's newer Help Centre says Android now offers almost all iOS functionality, while current UK pricing/marketing pages and an older Android article still describe a narrower Apple-first / Lite experience. We have not independently tested the Android app, so we treat that source conflict as a trial check, not a verdict. This is a desk assessment supported by our fictional-data quote-to-invoice workflow; we have not run live jobs through it.

Known limitations

  • ServiceM8's official Android documentation currently conflicts: newer Help Centre FAQs describe near-parity with iOS, while UK marketing/pricing pages and an older Android article still describe a narrower Apple-first / Lite experience
  • Australian origin shows in UK tax handling, so expect workarounds for VAT/CIS compared with UK-built tools
  • Job credits don't roll over; a quiet month's unused credits are gone
