The fastest way to evaluate spend management platform pricing is to compare it to what it replaces, not to its list price. Customers consolidating multiple overlapping spend management platform tools usually find Cobalt Ledger pays for itself in the first quarter — before any productivity gains.
Beyond consolidation, the second-order effects compound: faster onboarding for new hires, fewer hand-offs between teams, cleaner data flowing into the rest of your stack, and audit trails ready before security review asks. We document each of these in customer ROI reviews and would be happy to share the template before you decide.
The honest counter-list — things you won't have to negotiate around.
Cobalt Ledger prices on the metric that scales with value — never on the number of seats you add.
SAML and OIDC SSO are available on every paid plan, not gated behind an Enterprise upgrade.
Cobalt Ledger is funded by customer revenue. There is no ad model, no aggregated-data resale, no data brokers.
Cancellation is one click in the dashboard. Annual contracts can be cancelled and prorated, no email loops.
Cobalt Ledger has no per-seat software fee on the Starter plan; revenue comes from interchange and a 0.9% fee on non-USD transactions.
