Sample data for illustration

The 3-month cycle

Every code needs reconfirming every 3 months

Miss the date and your funded hours or Tax-Free Childcare top-ups can stop. Official reminders can land in spam or get buried, so Hourhold sends its own.

  1. Day 1Code issued
  2. 4 weeks beforeReconfirm window opens
  3. 2 weeks beforeSecond nudge
  4. DeadlineLast day to reconfirm

Hourhold also nudges you 3 days before and on the day, and labels each reminder with which code it's for, so you never mix them up.

What it does

Three things that protect your childcare money

Code guard

Add each code and its reconfirm date once. Get clear reminders well before every deadline.

Term countdown

See the next application cut-off for each child, based on their birthday, so a new place starts on time.

Invoice checker

Snap your nursery invoice. Hourhold flags funded hours that aren't shown as free.
