Photo: Tillo [Kindo](https://giftcard.news/company/kindo/) has connected its childcare rewards app to [Tillo](https://giftcard.news/company/tillo/), allowing parents to exchange points associated with eligible nursery invoices for retailer gift cards. Tillo announced the partnership on February 23, 2026, followed by Kindo's own account on March 12\. [\[S01\]](https://giftcard.news/rewards-loyalty/kindo-tillo-childcare-invoice-gift-card-rewards-february-2026/#article-source-1) [\[S02\]](https://giftcard.news/rewards-loyalty/kindo-tillo-childcare-invoice-gift-card-rewards-february-2026/#article-source-2) The nursery bill may explain when a family earns a reward, but the commercial question is who pays for that reward and under what conditions. ## Childcare invoices, employer reward plans and retail redemption Show data tableHide data table Scroll left or right to see all columns __Childcare invoices, employer reward plans and retail redemption__ | Stage | Role | | ------------------ | -------------------------------------- | | Nursery payment | Existing payment arrangements continue | | Upload the invoice | Kindo verifies eligible spending | | Earn points | The app applies its reward rules | | Choose a voucher | Tillo supplies gift card redemption | | Use the reward | The retailer’s terms apply | Kindo and Tillo describe this division of responsibilities in their announcements. [\[S01\]](https://giftcard.news/rewards-loyalty/kindo-tillo-childcare-invoice-gift-card-rewards-february-2026/#article-source-1) [\[S02\]](https://giftcard.news/rewards-loyalty/kindo-tillo-childcare-invoice-gift-card-rewards-february-2026/#article-source-2) The current Kindo website makes a further distinction: an eligible invoice does not have to have been paid before it is uploaded. It values one point at £1 for its reward system. Verification of an invoice should therefore not be confused with independent confirmation of a completed bank payment. [\[S03\]](https://giftcard.news/rewards-loyalty/kindo-tillo-childcare-invoice-gift-card-rewards-february-2026/#article-source-3) That distinction matters to the economics. Rewards linked to invoiced spending require rules about eligibility, duplicate submissions and later changes. The nursery still expects its ordinary fee; the reward is a separate benefit whose value depends on the programme's terms. Kindo's current employer page, checked October 19, gives a more specific menu than the launch release: Family advertises 3% back on nursery fees, Plus 5% and Premium 10%. It says employers are billed per enrolled parent each month, but does not publish a complete per-parent price schedule alongside those three tiers. The figures are advertised reward-plan rates, not independently measured savings, a percentage discount charged by the nursery or Tillo's revenue share.
