General
What is Casper ATS?+
Casper ATS is a cloud-based applicant tracking system (ATS) that helps businesses manage recruitment — from building a branded career page to posting jobs, screening candidates with AI, scheduling interviews, and making offers. It's built and operated by Skill Engine Ltd, a company registered in England and Wales (Company No. 16395887).
What is an ATS?+
An Applicant Tracking System is software that helps organizations manage recruitment — from posting jobs and collecting applications to screening candidates, scheduling interviews, and making offers. Casper ATS adds built-in AI for candidate matching and ranking on top of these core functions.
Who is Casper ATS for?+
Casper ATS is designed for in-house HR teams, staffing and recruiting agencies, and SMEs across industries including healthcare, IT, education, and hospitality. Agencies benefit from multi-client pipeline management and high-volume processing; in-house teams get a single branded hub for all open roles.
Does Casper ATS use AI?+
Yes — AI is core to the product, not an add-on. The AI Recruiting Assistant can post jobs, find and rank the best candidates, and execute recruiting tasks from plain-language instructions. AI also powers resume parsing, candidate ranking, and skill matching.
Can I use my own domain and branding?+
Yes. Casper ATS supports custom branding — your logo, colors, and fonts — across your career page, application forms, and emails. You can run your career page on your own domain (e.g. careers.yourcompany.com) for a fully white-label candidate experience.
Pricing & Billing
How is pricing structured?+
Casper ATS offers four plans — Starter (free), SME, Professional, and Enterprise — priced by team size and hiring volume. All paid plans include core ATS functionality, AI assistance, and white-label branding. Annual billing saves 10% versus monthly. Enterprise pricing is custom; contact sales for a quote.
What payment methods do you accept?+
We accept major credit and debit cards via Stripe, our payment processor. All prices are listed in USD.
How does billing work?+
Paid plans are billed on a recurring basis — monthly or annually, depending on the option you choose at signup. Your card is charged automatically at the start of each billing cycle. There are no long-term contracts; you can upgrade, downgrade, or cancel at any time from your account settings.
Is there a free trial, and do I need a credit card to sign up?+
Yes. You can start a free trial with no credit card required. Sign up at app.casperats.com/recruiter/register, or book a demo for a guided walkthrough. The Starter plan itself is free indefinitely for individuals or small teams.
What happens if I upgrade or downgrade my plan?+
Upgrades take effect immediately, and you're charged the prorated difference. Downgrades take effect at the start of your next billing cycle; we don't provide partial refunds for the unused value of your current plan during that cycle.
Refunds & Cancellation
Can I cancel anytime?+
Yes. You can cancel your subscription at any time from your account settings, or by emailing support@skillengine.co.uk. Cancellation takes effect at the end of your current billing period, and you'll keep full access until then. There are no cancellation fees.
What's your refund policy?+
Monthly plans: Payments are non-refundable once a billing cycle has started. If you cancel mid-cycle, you keep access until the cycle ends but won't be charged again. Annual plans: Full refund available if you cancel within 14 days of purchase or renewal. After 14 days, annual payments are non-refundable, but you retain access for the rest of the paid term. Free trial / Starter plan: No payment is collected, so no refund applies. Billing errors: If you're charged in error (e.g. duplicate or incorrect charge), contact us within 30 days and we'll investigate and correct it, including a full refund where appropriate. Full details are in our Refund & Cancellation Policy.
How do I request a refund?+
Email support@skillengine.co.uk with your account email and the reason for your request. We review requests within 5 business days, and approved refunds are processed to your original payment method within 5–10 business days via Stripe.
Do Enterprise plans follow the same refund policy?+
No. Refund and cancellation terms for Enterprise customers are set out in the individual service agreement signed with Skill Engine Ltd, which takes precedence over the standard policy.
Security, Data & Compliance
Is my data secure?+
Yes. Casper ATS uses encryption in transit and at rest, role-based access controls, and regular security audits, and is hosted on secure AWS infrastructure.
Are you GDPR compliant?+
Yes. Casper ATS is GDPR compliant. Full details are in our Privacy Policy.
Who processes payments, and is it secure?+
All payments are processed securely by Stripe, a PCI-DSS Level 1 certified payment processor. Casper ATS does not store your card details directly.
Can I migrate from another ATS?+
Yes. We offer free data migration assistance for teams switching from Workable, Greenhouse, Lever, Zoho Recruit, or other platforms — our team helps import your candidates, jobs, and pipeline data.
