A home cook in a dark apron standing at a bright kitchen counter, smiling as he closes the lid on the third of seven kraft food containers filled with home cooked meals. Two brown paper carry bags wait to his right. Warm daylight from a large window on the left, herbs on the sill, a cutting board and a pot on the induction stove behind him.

Kitchen Club

A cook you count on, on your rhythm.

Kitchen Club is a standing order from a home cook you count on. Daily, weekly, biweekly, or monthly, on the rhythm the cook sets. Members pay before pickup, so the food is sold before it is made. Cooks keep 100% of the food price. Pickup at launch. Delivery is coming to clubs.

Why it exists

Two people, carrying the same feeling.

The cook wondering who’s in this week. The member wondering what’s for dinner. Kitchen Club answers both with one rhythm.

The cook this week

Chasing an e transfer from every subscriber.
Guessing the headcount before I shop.
Income I can't predict.

The member this week

'What's for dinner?' every single day.
My favourite cook sells out before I remember.
Traveling next week. Losing my spot.

One standing order settles all six of these at once. The rest of the page shows you how.

Kitchen shapes

Whatever your rhythm.

A cook picks the rhythm that fits her kitchen. Members subscribe once and it recurs. Same mechanic, four shapes.

Daily5x a week, billed monthly upfront

Tiffin lunch

For the lunch cook.

Fresh lunch, Monday to Friday. Members subscribe for the month, you cook to an exact headcount, and you're paid before you shop.

A homemade Sunday dinner spread on a stainless steel counter with a golden pot pie in a dark bowl, a bowl of mashed potato dotted with butter and chives, a plate of six Yorkshire puddings with a small jar of mustard, a bowl of beetroot borscht with a slice of rye bread, and a small bowl of green peas, warm daylight from a window on the left.

Weekly1x a week

Dinner club

For the once a week ritual.

One big cook a week. Members reserve their portions before the drop goes public.

Two open brown kraft meal boxes on a white marble kitchen island, one with a salmon fillet on quinoa with roasted sweet potato and green beans and a lemon wedge, another with a colourful vegetable and cashew stir fry over brown rice with a lime, a bundle of fresh rosemary and parsley tied with twine to the side, a potted basil on the windowsill behind, warm daylight.

Biweekly1x every two weeks

The steady drop

For steady regulars.

Every two weeks. Perfect for a dish that takes half a day and pays for the whole two.

An open brown kraft box lined with kraft crinkle paper on a wooden farmhouse counter, filled with homemade baking: chocolate chip and thumbprint cookies on the left, two mini banana loaves on the right, and two small mason jars of jam and honey with twine tags in the middle, a whisk and a linen napkin to the side, a potted rosemary in the window, warm morning light.

Monthly1x a month

Monthly box

For the specialty drop.

Once a month. Your seasonal specialty, or a batch of baking, on a standing order.

How it works for the cook

Every batch sold in advance

Members pay before pickup. You cook exactly what is sold, never the difference. No wasted ingredients, no eating the cost.

Yours to keep, yours to leave.

Stack a Sunday club with a weekday tiffin and the food revenue reaches around $2,688 a month. Kitchen Club scales with your kitchen, not with more hustle.

Illustrative. Cooks set their own price and rhythm; members see the price before subscribing. Clartiv’s small service fee is added to the member’s total and never comes out of the cook’s take.

Protections, both ways

What happens when a cycle goes wrong.

A subscription is a promise repeated every cycle. These are the rules that hold it up when someone cannot keep it.

If a cycle goes wrong

Cook cannot cook? Buyer is refunded.

Automatic. No forms, no chasing. If a menu is not posted in time, we skip the cycle and nobody is charged.

Two misses in a row? The club pauses.

If a cook misses two publish windows, the whole club is paused automatically and members are refunded. That protects everyone, including the cook's reputation.

Every cycle, standing rules

Money held until pickup

The buyer's card is charged before each pickup, but the money sits protected. It releases to the cook only after the handover.

100% of the food price to the cook

Clartiv adds a small fee to the buyer, never to the cook. The cook's price is the cook's price.

Built for this workflow

Plus is how Kitchen Club plans each cycle.

Batch forecasting tells you how much to cook. The sold-out waitlist captures the neighbours who missed. Kitchen Club runs on both.

Founding kitchens

A real founding cook’s Kitchen Club month will appear here once one has completed one.

We would rather show you an empty box than a made-up quote. When a founding cook has run Kitchen Club for a full month and is willing to be named, their story goes here.

Common questions

Before you subscribe.

How am I charged?: Payment method on file. Weekly, biweekly, and monthly clubs are charged before each pickup. Daily clubs are billed monthly upfront. You see the next charge date and amount before you subscribe.
When does the cook get paid?: After each handover. Money is charged before the cycle to protect the cook, and released to the cook only after the food is picked up.
Can I skip a cycle?: Yes. Skip from your app up to a couple of days before pickup. You are not charged and your subscription rolls on.
Can I cancel?: Any time, from your app. One tap. No penalty, no contract.
What if I am away for a while?: Skip the cycles you are away, or cancel and subscribe again when you are back. Your spot in a full club is not held once you cancel.
What if the cook cannot cook?: You are refunded automatically. If the cook misses two publish windows in a row, the whole club is paused and every member is refunded.

Cook the same thing, every cycle. Get paid before you shop.

Kitchen Club opens alongside the first verified kitchens in each community.
