OneBookPlus

OneBookPlus is software for pool technicians handling service routes, water records, and invoicing. It supports weekly, fortnightly, monthly, and seasonal schedules, and can build routes and raise invoices automatically. Technicians can record chlorine, pH, alkalinity, salt, stabiliser, and chemicals dosed for each pool. Invoices calculate 10% GST, display the business ABN, and include a GST summary for BAS reporting. The Free plan costs nothing and includes 10 invoices and five quotes per month, a branded booking page, GST and ABN details, per-pool water and chemical logs, and a mobile PWA. Starter costs A$29 a month and adds unlimited invoices, quotes, and jobs, recurring routes, auto-billing, Stripe payments, service reminders, and three team members. Stripe online payments carry Stripe processing fees plus a OneBookPlus platform fee. The service has a native iOS app for iPhone and iPad, as well as a web app recommended for Android users; there is no Android app. Listed integrations include Stripe, Google Calendar, Mailchimp, Google Ads, and Facebook Ads. Xero Sync and ATO Tax Lodgement are in development.

OneBookPlus suits pool technicians managing recurring service routes, pool chemistry records, and customer invoicing. It is available as a native iOS app and web app, with the web app recommended for Android.

OneBookPlus is pool-service software for Australian technicians handling recurring routes, water records, and billing. It is best suited to operators who want service scheduling and GST invoicing in the same workflow. Its free tier is useful for a small operation, but the monthly document caps make paid plans the practical choice as volume grows.

Overview

OneBookPlus connects repeat visits with pool-level chemical records and invoicing. It supports weekly, fortnightly, monthly, and seasonal schedules, and can automatically raise invoices from route schedules. That combination can simplify coordination for businesses with regular service rounds; operators seeking retail checkout or a broad add-on ecosystem should look elsewhere, since it offers neither pool-shop point of sale nor a large third-party marketplace.

For Australian businesses, invoices calculate 10% GST and show the business ABN, with a GST summary for BAS reporting. That is a practical fit for local compliance workflows, though it does not turn the product into a general-purpose field-service suite.

Key features

Routes, water records, and billing

Technicians can log chlorine, pH, alkalinity, salt, stabiliser, and chemicals dosed against each pool. Keeping those readings with the pool record gives recurring service teams a consistent record alongside scheduling and invoices. The Free plan includes per-pool logs, but its ten-invoice and five-quote monthly ceilings are restrictive for active businesses; Starter removes those document limits and adds recurring routes and auto-billing.

Customer tools and integrations

A booking page is included on Free, while paid plans add a hosted website. Starter and higher plans include Stripe payments, with both Stripe processing fees and a OneBookPlus platform fee to account for. Current integrations include Stripe, Google Calendar, Mailchimp, Google Ads, and Facebook Ads; Xero Sync and ATO Tax Lodgement are in development, so they should not be treated as current capabilities.

Security and support

The maker says records, files, and sign-in data are hosted in AWS Sydney, encrypted at rest with AES-256 and in transit with TLS 1.3, and separated by business in the database. It says it operates to the 13 Australian Privacy Principles, while also noting it has not been independently audited against them. Support is founder-led through in-app messaging and email, with replies usually coming the same business day.

Pricing

OneBookPlus has a Free plan, paid plans from A$29 a month, and a 14-day trial. The plans are priced in AUD and billed monthly at the stated rates.

Moving up from Free primarily buys capacity and automation; Starter is the key step for recurring routes, auto-billing, Stripe payments, and unlimited documents. Plus and Growth add web and marketing capabilities and progressively larger team allowances, so they make less sense if the business only needs route management and invoicing. The stated plan features do not specify a renewal term beyond monthly billing for paid plans.

Platforms

A native iOS app is available for iPhone and iPad, and the product also runs on the web. Android users are directed to the web app rather than a native Android app. The Free plan's mobile PWA offers a browser-based mobile option, but Android operators should expect a web workflow.

Who it's for

OneBookPlus fits Australian pool technicians and small service businesses that repeat visits, track water chemistry per pool, and want GST-aware invoicing tied to their routes. It is less suitable for pool retailers needing point of sale, businesses committed to Android-native software, or teams that require a large third-party marketplace.

Pros and cons

• Recurring route-to-invoice workflow: Schedules can span weekly through seasonal service, with automatic invoice creation, reducing separate scheduling and billing steps.
• Pool-specific records: Chemical readings and dosed products can be recorded against each pool, useful for technicians maintaining service histories.
• Australian invoicing details: Automatic 10% GST, ABN display, and a BAS summary suit local operators.
• Free tier has hard caps: Ten invoices and five quotes monthly limit its usefulness once a business handles regular volume.
• Android is web-only: The absence of a native Android app may be a drawback for technicians who prefer dedicated mobile apps.
• Narrower retail and integration scope: No pool-shop POS or broad add-on marketplace, and two anticipated integrations are still in development.

Alternatives

Pool Service Software is a broader category starting point for comparing pool-service products. For a specific alternative, Pool IQ has Android, iOS, and web support plus a permanent free tier capped at 25 clients, one technician, 90 days of service history, and three standard AI uses per month; it suits a small operator who values Android access over OneBookPlus's Australian GST workflow.

Pool Service Software (PSS) offers Android, iOS, and web access, with a free plan for up to 10 properties and all features included; consider it if property count is the main constraint you want to evaluate. PoolBoss provides Android, iOS, API, and web support, with a free tier for up to 20 pools and one admin and a $29 a month Startup plan; it is an option for operators who prioritize those platform choices and pool-based limits.

PoolControl Pro is another option, with commercial plans starting at €59/month depending on operation size and free access during beta. Pool Brain is a paid product with a free trial. POOL360 PoolService is a paid product with a free trial. loTouch is a paid option with a C$400 a month small-team plan for 1–10 field providers, plus a $3,500 one-time implementation fee. Paythepoolman is a paid option with a free trial.

Tutoring Center Software is a category link for a different software need.

Verdict

Choose OneBookPlus if you run an Australian pool-service operation and want recurring routes, water records, and GST invoicing joined together, with Starter at A$29 a month as the sensible step beyond the capped free tier. Look elsewhere if Android-native access, retail POS, or a larger add-on marketplace is essential.
