25.00 USD per user per month, VAT included

25.00 USD per user per month, VAT included. There is one plan and it is called Monthly. There is no per-module charge: turn on whichever ones you want and the price does not change, because you pay for the people using the system, not for what you enable. We are currently in a demo phase: you will not be charged anything. We will give you advance notice before billing starts.

No. You can sign up as a company in formation, without a tax ID, and keep your clients, catalog, inventory and sales from day one. The only thing left waiting is electronic invoicing, because without a tax ID the tax authority will not authorise any document. When you get your tax ID you add it in Business settings and it turns on. Nothing has to start over.

Yes. That is precisely the first thing sign-up asks: whether you invoice under your own ID or whether there is a company involved. Both are complete paths, with their legal form and tax regime — in Ecuador a sole trader and an S.A.S. can both be under the RIMPE regime.

You sign in with your Google account and a wizard asks you ten questions: what your business is called, whether it is incorporated, your legal details, what you do, which modules you want, your details, your logo and colors, who you invite from your team, who we invoice, and your plan. If your legal form has shareholders there is one extra step for the ownership structure. There is no contract to sign and no salesperson to talk to.

Yes: invoices, credit notes, debit notes and withholding receipts. MERP builds the XML, signs it with your electronic signature, submits it, waits for authorisation and generates the printable document. It also reads the XML a supplier sends you and leaves the purchase invoice started. Three things are needed to issue: authorisation from the tax authority, an electronic signature, and a system that builds the document. MERP is the third.

To prepare and reconcile them, yes. MERP projects the month from what you already invoiced and purchased, sets the transactional annex against form 104 box by box and, if they do not match, will not let you close. You download the ATmmaaaa.zip under the exact filename the portal demands, and the 104 as a spreadsheet. Filing itself you do on the tax authority portal: MERP does not connect to it for that. When you come back you mark the return as filed with its receipt number, and from then on the only way out is a substitute return, with its reason written down.

Yes, since August 2026. Monthly runs with the employee and employer social security contributions and reserve funds, the thirteenth and fourteenth salaries, holidays, profit sharing and settlements. The fourteenth salary is paid on the date that applies to each worker based on where they work, so a Quito company with a branch in Guayaquil pays on both dates. The minimum wage and the rates are not written into the program: they live in the country catalog with the date they take effect, which is why a 2024 run recalculated today still uses the 2024 minimum wage. Approving a run writes its journal entry; if accounts are missing, the run is not approved.

Yes, as one more user of your company, and like any user they count towards the price. You can also have the invoices MERP issues you go only to them, and invoice to their details instead of yours. The chart of accounts MERP ships with is the IFRS master catalog already used by accountants in Ecuador. We are preparing something specific for people who keep the books for several companies; it is not ready yet.

The trial lasts 14 days, asks for no card and has no conditions. We are currently in a demo phase: you will not be charged anything. We will give you advance notice before billing starts.

Not today. MERP is built so that the country is data rather than a branch in the code — the tax authority, the chart of accounts, the legal forms and the tax regimes are all declared per country — but the only country loaded right now is Ecuador. We would rather say it plainly than sell a "multi-country" you cannot use yet.

They are encrypted on your own device before they leave it, with a key derived from a secret in the system keystore combined with your PIN. The server holds only unreadable data: neither Kinti nor your company administrator can read them, and that is not a policy promise but a structural one — the mechanism does not exist. When you create your vault you download a rescue key, which is what restores access if you change devices or clear your browser data.

A suspended account keeps its data for three months before it is purged, so there is ample room to come back or to take your information with you. Electronic tax documents are kept for seven years even after you leave, because Ecuadorian regulations require it.

In the browser, from any computer or phone. That is where MERP is published today and it is all you need: there is nothing to install.

Yes, and it is inside the product: 31 written guides that explain screen by screen how each module works, plus how to incorporate your company in Ecuador and how to get a tax ID as a sole trader. Every module has a help button that opens its own.
