Applying is free, takes about five minutes, and does not commit you to anything. We read every application and reply personally within three business days.
Plain answers work best. You do not need to know any technical detail; describing the problem in your own words is exactly what we want.
Your email app should have opened with your application pre-filled. Press send there and it is done. If nothing opened, copy the text below and email it to apply@lumotala.co.za.
The Founding 20 is Lumotala's launch programme for the first twenty businesses on the platform. Founding customers get hands-on migration, direct access to the founding team, and a calibration price confirmed after 90 days, then locked for 24 months.
No. Applying is free and does not commit you to a plan, a payment or a contract. You only decide after we have spoken and you have seen exactly what you would get.
About five minutes. The form asks for your business name, contact details, what your digital setup looks like today, and what is frustrating you most.
We reply personally within three business days. Every application is read by a person and you get honest feedback either way.
Your entire migration done for you, direct access to the founding team instead of a ticket queue, a calibration price confirmed after 90 days and then locked for 24 months, and a real say in what we build next.
South African SMEs and organisations that want their domain, website, email and security managed in one place. Size does not matter; a one-person practice and a fifty-person company are both welcome to apply.
No. Starting from scratch is one of the setups we cater for. Tell us that in the form and we plan your foundation from zero.
Founding 20 calibration pricing starts at R799 per month for Seed, R1,799 for Grow and R3,499 for Thrive. These are calibration prices: confirmed in writing after 90 days of real usage, then locked for 24 months.
A calibration price is an honest starting number, not a guess dressed up as final. For your first 90 days, we track the real cost of running your plan. We then confirm your price in writing, at least 14 days before it takes effect, and it is locked for 24 months from that point. We would rather do this than publish a precise-looking number we have not earned.
We use it only to assess your application and to contact you about it, in line with POPIA. The full detail is in our privacy notice, and you can ask us to delete your application at any time.
Yes. Tell us your timing in the form. Founding places are assigned in conversation with you, not on a first-click basis.
