Jobboardly and Kardow both put a monetisable niche board within reach of a self-serve founder, so the choice is about how you pay for supply and how monetisation grows. Jobboardly is a no-code platform at $50 or $100 per month with aggregation from 12M+ listings paid through pay-as-you-go credits. Kardow starts at £29 per month with an AI website builder, scraper credits included in every tier and monetisation that grows into subscriptions, bundles and paywalls. Pick by whether pay-as-you-go supply or included credits with layered monetisation fits your plan.
Jobboardly publishes its plans in USD. Standard is $50 per month with the no-code board build, built-in monetisation and SEO with Google Jobs schema. Pro is $100 per month and adds further tooling per the pricing page. Annual billing is 33% less and there are no contracts. A free trial is not published and a 30-day money-back guarantee is offered instead. Aggregation is priced separately as pay-as-you-go credits against 12M+ listings. Setup fees and revenue share are not published.
Kardow publishes its plans in GBP with USD and EUR also shown. Starter is £29 per month with the AI website builder, a custom domain, paid job posts, 300 scraper credits per month and 1 team seat. Pro is £69 per month and adds white-label removal, subscriptions, bundles and paywalls, Google OAuth, custom email domains, custom fields, AI screening, API access, 1,000 scraper credits and 3 team seats. Scale is £139 per month and adds invoices and custom payment links, 3,000 scraper credits, unlimited team seats and up to 3 separate job boards. Enterprise pricing is custom and not published. Annual billing saves 20% or more and there is a 14-day free trial. Kardow charges the platform subscription rather than a revenue share. The two meter differently, with Jobboardly charging for aggregation as you use it while Kardow bundles a credit quota into each tier.
Jobboardly is built for entrepreneurs and founders launching a niche professional job board at an accessible entry price, used in 50+ countries. Its strength is speed and simplicity. A board can go live in roughly 15 minutes with no code. Built-in monetisation is ready for employer postings from day one. SEO with Google Jobs schema helps roles surface in search. Aggregation from a 12M+ listings pool runs on pay-as-you-go credits, so supply scales with spend rather than plan tier. There are no contracts and a 30-day money-back guarantee stands in place of a published free trial. If launch speed and a low entry price matter most, Jobboardly is built for that.
Kardow is built for operators who want to build and run a branded, monetisable job board themselves at a low monthly subscription. An AI website builder assembles the board, scraper credits keep it filled and monetisation runs through Stripe, from paid postings on Starter to subscriptions, bundles and paywalls on Pro. Scale adds invoices, custom payment links, unlimited team seats and up to 3 separate boards, with additional boards at £29 per month each. It suits self-serve founders who prefer a flat platform fee to a revenue share and want SEO pages, custom domains and multi-board support. If included credits and layered monetisation fit your plan, Kardow is built for that.
There is a third model for boards that exist to serve a defined community rather than to be operated or monetised. Spacewalk sources an employer-direct verified job stream, matches roles to your members with smart talent matching and reports through to placements, with no revenue share on any employer fees. Boards can be public, private or invite-only. See Spacewalk vs Jobboardly and Spacewalk vs Kardow or view pricing.
Both put a monetisable niche board within reach of a self-serve founder. Jobboardly is a no-code platform at $50 or $100 per month with a roughly 15-minute launch, built-in monetisation, SEO with Google Jobs schema and pay-as-you-go aggregation credits. Kardow starts at £29 per month with an AI website builder, scraper credits included in every tier and monetisation that grows into subscriptions, bundles and paywalls.
Jobboardly aggregates from a pool of 12M+ listings using pay-as-you-go credits, so you buy supply as you need it. Kardow includes scraper credits in each plan, with 300, 1,000 or 3,000 credits per month by tier. Neither vendor publishes a refresh cadence.
Their published entry prices sit close together. Jobboardly's Standard is $50 per month with 33% off billed annually. Kardow's Starter is £29 per month ($39 in USD) with annual savings of 20% or more. The working cost depends on supply, since Jobboardly's aggregation is paid through separate credits while Kardow includes a monthly credit quota in each plan.
Jobboardly builds monetisation for employer postings into both plans and pairs it with SEO with Google Jobs schema to drive traffic. Kardow starts with paid job posts through Stripe on Starter, then adds subscriptions, bundles and paywalls on Pro and invoices and custom payment links on Scale, charging a platform subscription rather than a revenue share. Jobboardly does not publish revenue-share terms.
Yes. If your board exists to serve a defined community rather than to be operated or monetised, Spacewalk offers a community-first placement model with an employer-direct verified job stream matched to your community, placement reporting and no revenue share.
