Stop Paying $27/Click for Caregivers Who Never Apply
Indeed charges you every time someone clicks — whether they apply or not. Pipestaff charges $10 only when a verified caregiver lead lands in your dashboard. Outcome-based pricing vs. click-based gambling.
How They Stack Up
Eight dimensions that define what you actually pay — and what you actually get.

| Lead exclusivity | Shared with all employers | 100% exclusive to you |
| Contracts & minimums | $200–$500/mo minimum spend | No contracts, no minimums |
| Billing model | Monthly prepaid subscription | Weekly billing — pay for delivered leads |
| Lead quality / source | General job board, all industries | Caregiver-specific, high-intent |

Why Agencies Switch from Indeed
Three pain points that drive home care agencies to pay-per-lead.
The Pain
"Paying $15–30 per click… I funded a $500 budget and got 3 applicants who never responded."
The Solution
$10 per lead, flat rate. You only pay when a verified caregiver arrives in your dashboard — name, phone, and email included.
The Pain
"Shared leads — my applicants were interviewing with 10 other agencies at the same time. I lost half of them before the first call."
The Solution
100% exclusive leads. Every lead is delivered to your agency only. We never resell or share the same person with a competitor.
The Pain
"Locked into monthly contracts… I spent $1,200 during slow months when I wasn't even actively hiring."
The Solution
Pause anytime, no contracts. Turn lead delivery on when you're hiring, off when you're not — with zero penalties.
The Math: Indeed vs Pipestaff
Same hiring outcome. Very different invoice.
Indeed
Pipestaff
More applicants, less money, and you only pay for what you actually receive.
