Pricing Comparison: FlowerBuddy Offers Incredible Value

FlowerBuddy keeps pricing transparent and straightforward. There are no surprise fees or add-on costs for core features like inquiry forms.

Here’s what makes FlowerBuddy different:

  • No invoicing fees added to Stripe payment processing fees for Pro and Unlimited plans
  • No extra charges for core features, like forms or inventory management
  • Pro and Unlimited plans let you pass booking fees to clients
  • Unlimited plan includes 2 team seats

‍The chart below compares FlowerBuddy’s scalable, transparent pricing with a generic example of a pricing plan that charges extra for payment processing and add-on features. While the example is inspired by pricing structures available on the market, it’s not tied to any specific competitor. It is meant to show how FlowerBuddy compares across different business sizes.

Choose the example that matches your annual event revenue—$40K, $100K, or $150K—to see the difference.

Feature Comparison: FlowerBuddy is Future Focused

FlowerBuddy offers one of the most comprehensive, continually evolving feature sets in the floral industry. We add new features on a regular cadence, driven by florist feedback.

FlowerBuddy’s features are built to help you price, plan, order, and deliver more profitably. Here are a few features to highlight:

Inventory Management
FlowerBuddy tracks your inventory down to the shelf level. You can pull items directly into recipes, receive alerts when stock is low, and auto-generate hard good pull lists. 

Cost, Price, and Profit Visibility
FlowerBuddy shows your cost, price, and profit at both the event and recipe levels. Hovering over these values reveals a more detailed breakdown, giving you clear insight to make smarter, more profitable decisions. 

AI-Driven Workflow Support
FlowerBuddy uses AI to help you move faster and stay organized. Describe your design, and FlowerBuddy will recommend a list of flowers for your event or generate a recipe. Our image library also uses AI to tag and organize photos automatically, no more digging through folders.

Our goal is to give you the right information and tools, at the right time, to help your business thrive.

Additional FlowerBuddy features include:

  • Floral recipes with markup, costs, and profit tracking
