Operations

Systems that run the day-to-day — dispatch, jobs, stock, doors, tables.

01

Courier & Delivery

Engine modules: records, pipeline, dispatch, customers, invoices, site, chatbot

Monthly only — no setup fees anywhere
CompetitorPricing modelOne-time feesOngoing priceNotes
OnfleetFlat monthlyNone$599–2,999/moTask-capped tiers (2,500–10,000 deliveries). The category's premium anchor.

J Supreme Tech·PremiumSetup + monthlyJ$165,000J$33,000/moUnlimited — every module, priority support.

Market norm

Entry runs $35–150/mo, but real fleets land at $150–600+/mo once driver counts or task caps bite. The premium tier (Onfleet) starts at $599/mo for 2,500 deliveries.

Fee structure

Monthly only — no setup fees anywhere. Pricing scales by driver or by delivery volume.

The JST angle

Every competitor sells dispatch only. One JST plan bundles dispatch + customer records + invoices + a branded site + a chatbot — the stack a courier would otherwise assemble from 3 subscriptions.

02

Movers & Storage

Engine modules: jobs, calendar, quotes, storage units, invoices, site

One-time onboarding + monthly at the specialist end; flat monthly in the budget lane
CompetitorPricing modelOne-time feesOngoing priceNotes
SmartMovingOne-time + monthlyOnboarding fee (quoted)from ~$399/mo (Growth)Sales-gated; annual contracts typical for 20+ employee ops.

J Supreme Tech·PremiumSetup + monthlyJ$145,000J$29,000/moUnlimited — every module, priority support.

Market norm

$135–400/mo for small-to-mid movers; the specialist platforms gate pricing behind sales calls and layer on onboarding fees and annual contracts.

Fee structure

One-time onboarding + monthly at the specialist end; flat monthly in the budget lane.

The JST angle

The category's leaders hide pricing and lock annual contracts. Published JMD pricing, month-to-month, with storage-unit tracking included (competitors treat storage as an add-on) is a clean wedge.

03

Warehouse / Inventory (WMS)

Engine modules: inventory, orders, pick/pack, reports

Flat monthly at the low end; one-time implementation + monthly once pick/pack workflows appear
CompetitorPricing modelOne-time feesOngoing priceNotes
Zoho InventoryFlat monthlyNone$29–299/moOrder-volume tiers; free plan capped at 50 orders/mo.

J Supreme Tech·PremiumSetup + monthlyJ$180,000J$36,000/moUnlimited — every module, priority support.

Market norm

Light inventory is $29–149/mo; true pick/pack WMS jumps to $349–999/mo, and mid-market platforms add $500–3,000 one-time implementation.

Fee structure

Flat monthly at the low end; one-time implementation + monthly once pick/pack workflows appear.

The JST angle

There's a hole between $149 toy tools and $349+ real WMS. A JST build with pick/pack and reports priced inside that gap — setup included — undercuts the Fishbowl/Cin7 tier by hundreds a month.

04

Property Management

Engine modules: units, tenants, leases, maintenance, rent ledger

Monthly (flat tier or per-unit)
CompetitorPricing modelOne-time feesOngoing priceNotes
TenantCloudFlat monthlyNone$18–35+/moDIY landlords; free tier up to 75 units with limited features.

J Supreme Tech·PremiumSetup + monthlyJ$135,000J$27,000/moUnlimited — every module, priority support.

Market norm

Small landlords pay $18–60/mo; professional managers pay $58–375/mo flat or $1.50–5.00 per unit with a ~$298/mo floor at the enterprise end.

Fee structure

Monthly (flat tier or per-unit). Onboarding fees and unit minimums appear at the enterprise end.

The JST angle

Per-unit pricing punishes growth. A flat JMD plan with units, leases, maintenance and rent ledger — no per-door math, no 50-unit minimum — reads as instant savings to any Jamaican portfolio over ~30 units.

05

Restaurant & Hospitality

Engine modules: menu, orders, tables/reservations, KDS, loyalty

One-time hardware + monthly software + processing percentage
CompetitorPricing modelOne-time feesOngoing priceNotes
Square for RestaurantsFree + processingHardware optional$0–60+/mo + ~2.6% processingNo contract; wins under $500k/yr revenue.

J Supreme Tech·PremiumSetup + monthlyJ$195,000J$39,000/moUnlimited — every module, priority support.

Market norm

Software is $0–399/mo, but the true all-in for a full-service location is $300–1,200/mo once hardware, add-ons and 2.4–3.1% card processing land.

Fee structure

One-time hardware + monthly software + processing percentage. Long contracts are the norm outside Square.

The JST angle

Every add-on (KDS, reservations, loyalty) is a separate fee in this market. JST shipping menu + orders + tables + KDS + loyalty as one system, contract-free, attacks the add-on stacking directly.

Booking

Systems that fill the calendar and take the deposit.

06

Beauty & Salon Booking

Engine modules: calendar, bookings, deposits, customers, loyalty

Monthly only (flat or per-staff) — zero setup fees anywhere in this category
CompetitorPricing modelOne-time feesOngoing priceNotes
GlossGeniusFlat monthlyNone$24–148/mo + 2.6% flatSolo-tech favourite; flat processing is the hook.

J Supreme Tech·PremiumSetup + monthlyJ$85,000J$17,000/moUnlimited — every module, priority support.

Market norm

A solo nail tech pays $0–48/mo; a 3–7 chair salon pays $50–150/mo. Card processing of 2.3–3.3% sits on top of everything.

Fee structure

Monthly only (flat or per-staff) — zero setup fees anywhere in this category. Processing % is the hidden second price.

The JST angle

Deposits are the #1 no-show killer for Jamaican techs, and most platforms gate them behind upper tiers. JST leading with deposits + loyalty punch cards on the entry plan flips the category's upsell model.

07

J Supreme Tech·PremiumSetup + monthlyJ$65,000J$13,000/moUnlimited — every module, priority support.

Market norm

Commodity pricing: $10–20 per user or $20–60 flat. Free tiers everywhere make the entry price effectively $0.

Fee structure

Monthly only. The fight is per-seat vs flat — flat wins for teams.

The JST angle

Impossible to win on price alone — win on ownership: white-label booking on the client's own domain with intake forms and reminders, sold as part of a JST site, where Calendly is a generic link.

08

Tours & Experiences

Engine modules: trips, availability, bookings, waivers, site

Commission-led: free to join, paid per booking

J Supreme Tech·PremiumSetup + monthlyJ$155,000J$31,000/moUnlimited — every module, priority support.

Market norm

The category standard is $0 monthly and a 1.5–6% cut of every booking — a tour operator doing US$200k/yr quietly pays $3,000–12,000/yr in commissions.

Fee structure

Commission-led: free to join, paid per booking. Hybrids (Rezdy, Bokun) charge monthly + a smaller %.

The JST angle

Flat monthly, 0% commission is the headline. A Jamaican operator doing J$10M/yr in bookings keeps roughly J$600k that FareHarbor's model would have skimmed — the system pays for itself in saved commission.

Education

Systems that run schools and academies end-to-end.

09

School / Academy Management

Engine modules: students, classes, attendance, grades, fees

Per-student monthly is the norm; one-time setup/data migration is common as schools scale

J Supreme Tech·PremiumSetup + monthlyJ$180,000J$36,000/moUnlimited — every module, priority support.

Market norm

Small private schools pay $100–250/mo (or ~$1–3 per student); enterprise SIS adds one-time implementation and data-migration fees on top of per-student annual pricing.

Fee structure

Per-student monthly is the norm; one-time setup/data migration is common as schools scale.

The JST angle

Fees collection is where Jamaican academies bleed (manual receipts, no ledger). Bundling fee tracking + parent payment links with attendance and grades makes JST an income tool, not an admin expense.

Growth

Systems that bring customers back.

10

Loyalty & Rewards

Engine modules: points ledger, tiers, punch cards, campaigns — also an add-on to any system

Monthly only, scaled by order volume or location count

J Supreme Tech·PremiumSetup + monthlyJ$80,000J$16,000/moUnlimited — every module, priority support.

Market norm

Standalone loyalty runs $49–399/mo and climbs with order volume. Nobody charges setup — the fight is monthly price vs order caps.

Fee structure

Monthly only, scaled by order volume or location count.

The JST angle

As a built-in add-on to any JST system (salon, restaurant, courier), loyalty becomes a cross-sell at a fraction of the $49–299/mo standalone market — and the punch-card model already proven in JST client work.

Intelligence

Systems that read the numbers and answer the phone.

Analytics Dashboards

Engine modules: cross-system BI, KPIs, exports

Per-seat or flat monthly for tools; one-time build + retainer when done-for-you

J Supreme Tech·PremiumSetup + monthlyJ$135,000J$27,000/moUnlimited — every module, priority support.

Market norm

Self-serve BI is $14–75/user/mo, flat tools $47–320/mo — but every option assumes someone builds the dashboards. Agencies charge $2–10k one-time for that.

Fee structure

Per-seat or flat monthly for tools; one-time build + retainer when done-for-you.

The JST angle

JST systems already own the data, so cross-system KPIs ship pre-built — no $2–10k dashboard project, no analyst seat. 'Your numbers, already wired' is the pitch.

Market norm

DIY platforms cost $30–400/mo metered by credits or conversations; mid-market support bots run $500–3,000/mo. Done-for-you builds add a $1–5k one-time fee.

Fee structure

Usage-metered monthly for DIY; one-time build + monthly for done-for-you.

The JST angle

JST's bot is trained on the client's own CRM and site data as part of the system — the 'done-for-you' tier at DIY pricing, with no per-resolution meter anxiety.

J Supreme Tech·PremiumSetup + monthlyJ$165,000J$33,000/moUnlimited — every module, priority support.

Market norm

Raw platforms bill $0.07–0.33 per minute; productized receptionists package that as $59–500/mo. A human receptionist is ~$3,000/mo — the category sells against that number.

Fee structure

Usage-metered (per minute) at the platform layer; flat monthly bundles with included minutes at the product layer.

The JST angle

Selling the receptionist, not the minutes: a flat JMD plan with included minutes, wired into the client's bookings and CRM, beats quoting Jamaican SMBs in US-cents-per-minute.

The bottom line

The market charges per seat, per unit, per minute — or takes a cut of every booking.

J Supreme systems launch tiered, in JMD — choose monthly-only, or a one-time setup with a lower monthly. 3-day free trial, no free plan, no per-seat math, no commission. One engine.
