Case Study: Kittl achieves 10x payment scalability and faster payouts with Tipalti

Kittl Scales Globally as It Brings Beautiful Designs to Well Over 1M Subscribers

Kittl is a Berlin-based design platform founded in 2020 that has grown to well over 1 million subscribers and a team of 120+ across four countries. As the company expanded, its lean finance team struggled with manual, error-prone invoice handling, supplier onboarding, and mass payouts to 300+ designers across multiple tax jurisdictions and payment methods, limiting scalability.

Kittl implemented Tipalti to automate invoicing, consolidate payment and compliance data, and enable self-billing. The integration centralized finance operations, minimized errors, and sped up processing—now issuing 300+ automated monthly payouts, cutting weekly payment work from a day to two hours, and future-proofing payments to scale by 10x without adding headcount.
