Flat-Fee vs. Monthly Hiring Plans: What’s Best for Your Startup?

Understanding which CanBridge plan gives you the flexibility, speed, and cost-efficiency you need.

Hiring remote talent shouldn’t feel like a gamble. At CanBridge, we designed two simple pricing models that meet startups where they are: one for when you need a specific hire, and one for when you’re scaling your team.

But which one’s right for you?

Let’s break it down — so you can choose with confidence and build your team the smart way.

Option 1: Flat-Fee Per Hire

Best for:

• Early-stage startups

• One-off hires

• Trying CanBridge for the first time

How it works:
You pay $3,500 CAD (or USD equivalent) for a single full-time hire. That includes sourcing, vetting, candidate presentation, scheduling, and a 30-day replacement guarantee.

Use it when:

• You need a specific role filled fast (e.g., backend developer, executive assistant)

• You’re testing new markets or initiatives

• You’re hiring occasionally, not monthly

Benefits:

• Fixed cost, no surprises

• Only pay when you’re ready to hire

• Great way to experience our process

Flat-fee is ideal if this is your first time hiring internationally or you’re unsure how many roles you'll need filled in the next 90 days.

Option 2: Monthly Hiring Plan

Best for:

• Teams hiring two or more roles over 60–90 days

• Startups scaling up or filling multiple seats

• Founders who want more control and priority support

How it works:
For $2,500/month, you get access to ongoing sourcing support, multiple shortlists, flexible role targeting, and priority turnaround.

This plan is month-to-month — no long-term contracts. You can pause or pivot at any time.

Use it when:

• You’re hiring a full stack engineer this month, a designer next month, and a VA the month after

• You want CanBridge to act as your embedded hiring partner

• You’re tired of job boards and resume overload

Benefits:

• Flexible and founder-friendly

• Better cost per hire if filling multiple roles

• Fast turnaround on shortlists

• Dedicated account manager and talent pipeline

Monthly plans also work well for agency owners or fractional CTOs regularly building teams.

Which One Is Right for You?

Let’s keep it simple:

Both plans include our 30-day guarantee and access to a curated LATAM talent pool.

Why We Built These Two Plans

Startups move fast — and one-size-fits-all hiring doesn’t cut it.

Some founders need to move surgically. Others need a partner who’s in the trenches with them for multiple hires.

At CanBridge, we built pricing that’s clear, founder-first, and flexible — because we’ve been on both sides of the hiring table.
