Payments, built on a custom Stripe integration

Pay tuition the way
families already pay.

Apple Pay for remote tuition, and Tap-to-Pay on iPhone for parents who want to pay on the spot. We're one of the only ECE apps that supports it. No card reader, no terminal, no third-party processor.

Tuition, in two taps.
$2,100 itemized to Childcare Tuition + Registration Fee. Confirm with Side Button. Done.

Tap-to-Pay for parents Almost nobody else
"I don't have my checkbook" → solved.
A parent at pickup pulls out a card or taps their phone. The director taps the parent's card or phone on the back of the staff iPhone, and payment clears in about 8 seconds. No card reader to rent, no Square terminal, no third-party processor. Brightwheel, Procare, and Lillio all need separate hardware for this.

All of this runs on a custom Stripe integration we built specifically for RoundUp. It's modern, it's fast, and it adds no markup over standard Stripe rates. See how the four platforms handle payments →

Every center starts here

The Base plan, on every staff phone.

$99/mo per location. The three things every center needs from day one, including built-in mixed-age ratio support across all 31 supported states.

3-tap check-in & ratios

Drop-off, pickup, authorized-pickup, late notifications. Live OCC ratios per room, including the mixed-age math Brightwheel can't do.

Daily reports + threads

One thread per child. Photos, naps, and meals go to families as the day happens. No third-party app, no parent training.

Multi-room dashboards

Director sees every room at once: who's present, who's running hot on ratio, who needs a hand. Free roster migration on day one.

ChildForce by RoundUp ECE

Meet ChildForce.

ChildForce is the new CRM built into every RoundUp app. It's where your children, staff, parents, and payments actually live, so nobody's digging through spreadsheets or logging into a second system just to find a phone number or check who's paid up.

Children

One profile per child for enrollment, room, allergies, and emergency contacts. It stays current everywhere the child shows up in the app.

Staff

Roster, roles, certifications, and schedules in one place. They feed straight into the ratios, hours, and payroll you already run.

Parents

Guardians, authorized pickups, and billing contacts for each family, with every message you've traded kept in one thread.

Payments

Tuition, invoices, balances, and subsidies tied to the right child and family, running on the same Stripe integration the app uses.

Tours, waitlists, attendance history, and documents are in there too. See what's included →

Any size center, custom plans

Small, medium, or enterprise. Every size has a plan.

Now supported in 31 states. Each state's child-care compliance rules are built right into the app. The app automatically applies the most current state-mandated requirements for your location, no manual updates needed.

Show your board the math

A typical 60-child center saves $13,080/year on RoundUp.

Violation prevention, no card-reader rental, ~12 hrs/week of admin time saved, better tuition collection, and paper supplies. Net: $11,256 saved year one at 7.2× ROI.
