Terms of use
Carefold is provided “as is”. It applies the rules described on this site to the childcare payments you provide. It is not tax, legal or financial advice. It relies on your payments and settings being complete and accurate, and it doesn't cover the cases listed in the FAQ. You remain responsible for your tax return. Carefold is not affiliated with, endorsed by or sponsored by the IRS, any employer or software company.
Free plan
The free plan lets you check files of any size and see the Form 2441 credit, the DCFSA exclusion, every note, the first 8 rows and the first 2 people.
Pro
Pro is licensed per person. Payments are processed by Polar (polar.sh) as merchant of record, which calculates and collects any sales tax or VAT; the checkout page and your receipt show our Polar seller name, Launchtools. Subscriptions renew automatically until cancelled; the 7-day pass expires after 7 days. Refunds are available within 14 days if Carefold can't read your file or applies a rule incorrectly.
Acceptable use
Don't resell or redistribute license keys.
Trademarks
Excel and other names are trademarks of their respective owners. Products named on comparison pages are mentioned only for comparison; Carefold is not affiliated with, endorsed by or sponsored by any of them.
