Pricing questions

Is there really a free plan?

Yes — Seedling is free forever for up to 4 children. It includes check-in/out, activity logging, one room, and parent messaging. No credit card, no trial clock.

What happens after the 14-day trial?

You pick a plan or drop to the free Seedling tier. Your data stays intact either way — we never hold your roster hostage.

Do you charge per child or per location?

Per program size. Each plan has a child cap (4, 12, 50, unlimited) and includes all your staff and parent accounts at no extra cost.

Are parents charged for payments?

When card checkout is live, parents pay standard Stripe card fees; ACH is lower-cost where available. There are no HappyGarden add-on fees for invoicing features. Online card payouts via Stripe Connect are still rolling out.
