## Price changes

No change record has cleared two sources yet, so nothing is published on the wire.

**Key features:** Explicit no-cover-fee flat pricing positioned directly against a competitor's $1-$1.50 per network cover; Distribution through Yelp's own high-traffic restaurant pages plus Reserve with Google, Apple Maps and ChatGPT; Optional Yelp Host add-on that answers the phone and books reservations 24/7; Guest check-in kiosk and POS integration included in the platform comparison.

**Plan limits:** Basic is capped at 500 covers/month — unlimited covers require Plus at $349/month month-to-month; The pricing page defaults to annual billing, so the visible $129/$279 are annual-commitment rates, not month-to-month; Yelp Host, the 24/7 AI phone-answering product on the same page, is a separate subscription at $249/month (Basic) or $399/month (Plus), and the page footnotes that "Yelp Host Basic is subject to call limits and additional fees may apply"; The advertised "$300/month free ad credit" carries an asterisk: "Purchase required. See additional terms."; API access and data feed are Enterprise-only.

Provenance: Re-fetched business.yelp.com/restaurants/yelp-restaurants-pricing/ on 2026-09-10. The Guest Manager toggle DEFAULTS TO 'Annually' ($129/$279); monthlyUsd carries the month-to-month figures ($159/$349) with the annual rates and the page's own 19%/20% savings labels in notes. The review-site figures of $99/$299 remain refuted. Added on re-verification: the page states tables are listed on 'Yelp, Reserve with Google, Apple Maps & ChatGPT', so those are recorded as integrations, and the Yelp Host tier prices and the '$300/month free ad credit*  *Purchase required' asterisk were confirmed verbatim.
