Implementation
Quoted from your register on the walkthrough, before you sign. What you are buying is a tie-out: opening accumulated depreciation reconciled to your trial balance, evidenced by the net book value rollforward, before the first month closes.
Standard onboarding
$1,200
A clean register: accumulated depreciation ties, in-service dates are present, one book. Up to about 250 assets. One connector configured, the first close run together, the first journal entry posted.
Assisted migration
$3,000
A historical or drifted register, book and tax reconciled, up to about 1,000 assets. Cleanup, gap resolution, and tie-out to your trial balance.
Complex
Quoted
Multiple entities, state books, or a register above 1,000 assets.
Questions
What counts as an entity?
One set of books, one QuickBooks file. A company with an operating company, a holding company, and a real estate LLC is three entities: the first at full price, the other two at the additional-entity rate.
Why is pricing published?
So you can compare without booking a call. The price does not depend on who is asking.
What does implementation actually buy?
A tie-out. Your opening accumulated depreciation reconciled to your trial balance, evidenced by the net book value rollforward, before the first month closes. An opening balance that does not tie stays wrong for years. The fee is quoted from your own register on the walkthrough, so you see the number before you sign.
Why is implementation not included?
Because it is real work, done by hand, on your register. Annual billing is already two months free. We discount the subscription, not the implementation.
What happens above 1,000 assets?
Each entity includes 1,000 assets, and each additional 1,000 is $99 per entity per month. It is published rather than quoted, because distributors and manufacturers with a fleet and several facilities are the companies most likely to pass it.
Are the registers priced separately?
No. One price, every register. Fixed assets, prepaid and deferred expenses, leases and loans, receivables, and Texas property tax renditions are all included, and so is the data import tool. There is no per-register add-on and no feature matrix to read. The customer invoice portal is the single exception, because it is the one part of Steda your own customers use.
What does the customer portal cost?
$79 per entity per month, plus a one-time $500 setup, and it is the only optional part of Steda. Your customers pay through your own Stripe account, so you are the merchant of record and Stripe bills you for processing directly. Steda also takes a small platform fee on each payment, at the rate in your agreement, shown read-only in Settings before any payment is taken.
What does the $500 portal setup buy?
Your Stripe account connected, your invoice ledger syncing from QuickBooks, your logo and supplier documents loaded, and a live payment taken end to end and written back to QuickBooks as a received payment applied to the invoice. Quoted per entity, the same as the portal subscription.
Do you handle leases?
Yes. Lease liabilities and right-of-use assets under Accounting Standards Codification 842, and notes payable, on one effective-interest engine, included in the same price as the other registers.
Do I have to use all of them?
No. Most companies start with one register and add the others as they get to them. Nothing is billed differently either way, so there is no reason to postpone turning one on.
Can I buy the import tool on its own?
No. The import tool is part of Steda, included at every level, and not sold separately. If a one-off migration is all you need, book a walkthrough anyway; the implementation service may cover it.
Can I switch from Desktop to Online later?
Yes. The register lives in Steda, not in QuickBooks, so it survives the move. Disconnect Desktop, connect Online, keep closing months.
Do you charge per user?
No. Unlimited users at every level. Charging per seat for an audit trail just means fewer people use the audit trail.
I am a firm with several client files. Is there a rate for that?
Yes, a wholesale rate that starts at three client entities and falls as the count rises, with no implementation fee because the firm onboards its own clients. Ask for the firm terms when you book a walkthrough.
What happens to my data if I leave?
Export everything, in Excel and CSV, always. Export works even if your subscription has lapsed.
Is the import really a day?
For a clean spreadsheet, yes. Send it ahead of the walkthrough and we will have it loaded before we talk, so you see your own register on the call rather than a demo. A register with years of drift, gaps in the history, or several books to reconcile takes longer, and that is what the implementation fee covers.
