Why brands choose CropClerk
One price that doesn't multiply
Per-filing fees are easy to read and hard to predict. Ten products in Florida and Virginia comes to about $4,250 in Verdant's published service fees in year one: 2 licenses, 20 product registrations at $125–$250 each, and 5 tonnage reports. That's before state fees. It's about $2,450 in renewal years before any multi-product discount. CropClerk is $1,800 a year either way, and it stays $1,800 when you launch product 11. See how much fertilizer registration costs for the full math.
Tonnage without the spreadsheet
A consultant files the tonnage report, but someone has to give them the numbers: every shipment from every channel, converted to tons by state and period. CropClerk connects to Shopify directly, takes wholesale and marketplace sales through a simple file, and closes each period only after you confirm every channel is complete. The report reflects what you actually sold, and it's filed and paid for you.
The work between filings is included
Registrations are the visible part. Deficiency letters, fee payments, renewal timing and proof that each filing was accepted take as much time. CropClerk includes all of it: agency letters matched to the right filing, fees paid within your cap, renewals started 60–90 days before the expiry the agency issued, and the agency's confirmation kept for each filing.
See every obligation, not just open projects
Your workspace lists every license, registration and report in every state you ship to, with its status, owner and deadline. It also shows a ship list for each product and state. If a shipment goes to a state where a product isn't approved yet, it's flagged for remediation before it becomes a pattern.
