How KITALE stays fair, no matter how big your facility grows.

You pay per child. Once you have many children, the cap kicks in. Providers with four or more facilities get an additional 20% volume discount.

Cap per location
€89/ month incl. VAT

Applies as soon as €/child × number of children exceeds €89. For Package 2 that means from 30 children on.

Volume discount
€71.20/ location incl. VAT

From 4 facilities per provider: 20% off the entire usage fee. The capped location then effectively costs €71.20.

For families
€0always

Parents and children pay nothing for KITALE, even with siblings across multiple facilities.

Concrete examples (Package 2)

Nursery, 25 children25 × €2.99€74.75Cap does not apply
Kindergarten, 50 children50 × €2.99 → cap€89.00capped from 30 children on
Provider, 4 sites × 100 children4 × €89 × 0.8€284.80avg. €71.20 / location

Lever in numbers: a location with 50 children costs €89 per month. KITALE saves around 6 hours of admin per week (our goal). Depending on the hourly rate, that exceeds the cap-price often within the first working week.

Frequently asked questions

Frequently asked questions

Answers to the most common questions from provider and administration teams.

What does KITALE actually cost?

Modular per child and month. Capped at €89 per site. From 4 facilities, a 20% multi-site discount applies, effectively €71.20 per site. Concrete examples are below in the pricing section.

What about GDPR and the data processing agreement?

Servers in Germany, GDPR-compliant, AVV (data processing agreement) included. Bring your data protection officer, we run the demo together and answer all questions live.

What if we already use software for some areas?

We model your processes rather than enforcing ours. Catering interfaces, accounting exports, BuT applications: connectable. We clarify integrations one-to-one during onboarding.

How fast does a pilot go live?

Usually 48 hours of setup per site, including data import, role configuration and team training. Rollout to further facilities happens in waves, paced by you.

Do we get provider-level reporting?

Yes. Central provider dashboard with occupancy, meal quotas, BuT applications and financial overview across all sites. Exports as CSV and PDF, consolidated or per-site invoices.

Can facilities be configured differently?

Yes. Multi-tenant architecture: per site, own groups, packages, caterers, languages and branding. Across the provider, reporting stays consolidated.
