How we make money

When a parent chooses to pay tuition online, that payment carries one processing fee, shown clearly before they confirm. Stripe is paid out of that fee first, for running the cards and bank debits. What remains after Stripe is NestliCare's revenue. No subscriptions for daycares, no ads, no selling data, no paid tiers behind the daycare software.

A model this thin only works at volume, and that is the point. We earn when the platform is genuinely doing work, moving real tuition for real families. A center that collects only cash and checks pays us nothing at all, and is as welcome as everyone else.

The exact rates for every country we operate in are public on our pricing page. No asterisks.

Every feature, unlimited children, unlimited staff, unlimited rooms and centers. There are no tiers, no premium plan, and no trial that expires. The account you create today is the whole product, forever.

This is not a stripped-down free version designed to upsell you later. There is no paid version for providers to be upsold to.

And it stays that way for you even if the model ever changes: the Day One Promise on our pricing page says any future paid plan would apply only to centers that join after it exists. Sign up today and the software is free for you, forever.

AI has collapsed the cost of building and running software. NestliCare is a handful of highly skilled engineers with no offices, no sales floor, and no investors waiting for a payday. Software costs very little to run when nobody is spending millions on advertising and demo teams.

The legacy software makers know this too. They could cut their costs and pass the savings to you. Most would rather keep their prices where they are and hope you never do this math. We would rather be the proof that you did.
