Childcare Center
Income Guaranteed

Clad supports childcare centers by guaranteeing 100% of their tuition and government subsidies arrive on the due date, even if parents or agencies pay late.

Let's Get Started

Predictable Cash Flow, Zero Effort.

Running a center is hard enough without the stress of unpredictable revenue. Clad acts as an "Umbrella of Financial Support," giving you the stability of a K-12 institution with the flexibility a childcare center needs. Beyond guaranteed income, Clad also offers a Financial Assistance (FA) program which help centers fund improvements based on individual needs.

"Working with Clad has been amazing! It's such a relief knowing exactly how much money our center will receive at one time without having to chase down multiple payments or track different platforms. Everything is organized, clear, and easy to manage, which gives me more time to focus on what matters most, the children, families, and staff. Clad has truly simplified our payment process and given us peace of mind as a childcare center. I would definitely recommend them to any center looking for a smooth and reliable system!"

FAQs

  • Is this a loan?

    No. It is a revenue guarantee, not a loan  debt or interest. You earn your revenue; Clad simply ensures it arrives on the due date.

  • We already use a billing software. Do we have to switch?

    No. Clad is "plug-and-play." They adapt to whatever payment processor or billing setup you currently use without any need to switch software or retrain your staff.

  • What does it cost?

    There is a small management fee based on your specific enrollment and payment history. In most cases, it is less than what childcare centers currently lose to late or missed payments.

  • How long does setup take?

    Clad's onboarding takes less than 5 days and requires minimal effort from your staff.

  • Does this cover government subsidies?

    Yes. While subsidy cycles usually take 30-45 days, Clad guarantees that income upfront along with parent tuition.

  • What if we don't have a late payment problem?

    Industry data shows ~25% of tuition is typically paid late. If your childcare center truly has low defaults, your management fee with Clad will be significantly lower to reflect that.
