Decimal sells outsourced accounting operations organised by industry vertical (ecommerce, SaaS, professional services, dental, nonprofit, manufacturing, home services, multi-location) rather than by company size alone. Its scope runs from bookkeeping to bill pay, expense management, payroll support and advisory, and it states 1,000+ clients across companies from 1–5 employees to 1,000+. No prices are published; every engagement starts with a sales conversation.
Who it is for
Choose Decimal if: A business in one of Decimal's named verticals that wants a single outsourced back office rather than assembling bookkeeping, AP, payroll and advisory separately.
Look elsewhere if: No published pricing at all — impossible to shortlist on cost, or if any of the limitations below are load-bearing for your business.
Decimal pricing
Decimal does not publish complete pricing. Not published. Pricing requires contacting sales. Budget for a sales conversation, and ask for the price at your entity count and transaction volume specifically — quote-based vendors in this category vary widely by account.
