Monetization
Revenue strategies, payment setup, and pricing tools for your job board.
Job boards generate revenue through four main channels: job posting fees, employer subscriptions, advertising, and affiliate programs. Most successful niche boards combine two or three of these rather than relying on a single source.
Cavuno includes built-in tools for each approach: Stripe-powered payments, tiered pricing plans, Google AdSense integration, a job seeker paywall, and discount codes for promotions. This section covers both the strategy behind each revenue model and the step-by-step setup in Cavuno.
