What it costs.

A posting on PracticeMatch costs $299 per 30-day posting. That is a standard posting, read from the order form on the posting page. The featured or highlighted upgrade adds $75 per posting per 30 days, larger orders get volume discounts, and card payments carry a 3.3% processing fee.

Who it fits.

It suits an employer who wants to buy postings without a sales call and run them for a few months. Database access is a separate purchase, so a recruiter who mainly wants to source candidates should price that part on its own.
