  • −Stripe is currently the only payment processor

The verdict

CareerSiteCloud

CareerSiteCloud is designed for employers and agencies that need career sites with job wrapping, but it lacks the monetization and community features needed for running an independent job board.

Cavuno

Built by the team who scaled Himalayas to millions of users, Cavuno solves the two hardest problems for new job board operators: getting enough jobs to look credible (aggregation plus CSV/XML and recurring feeds) and helping candidates find the right ones (AI-powered search). Every paid plan also includes the API, SDK, CLI, and MCP server, so you can keep the hosted frontend or build your own without rebuilding the backend. Start free, upgrade when you're ready.
