No margin, no commission: the price covers the working days and hosting. A sponsored cohort at 0 EUR, then four website tiers depending on your need, from 1 200 to 8 000 EUR, reserved to associations: 3, 6, 10 or 20 days at 400 €. All amounts excl. VAT.
Sponsor companies fund the solidarity pool. Your association pays nothing; in return, it relays the campaign and cites its sponsors. The website is the one of the Source Hub cohort: five pages and a blog.
The Source Hub partner cohort (group purchase, five associations gathered) has its own conditions: see the Source Hub offer (in French).
The price of a website is days of work. At each tier, what you really buy: the depth of the website, your team's autonomy, the time spent with you. Ladder reserved to recognised Belgian associations (ASBL, public utility foundations, AISBL).

Ask for this tierThe Kern4Good tiers are at cost, without margin: 3, 6, 10 or 20 days at 400 € (see below). Every price is a "from": a project can sit between two tiers, the quote states the days. Every offer includes the technical base of search visibility; what comes next is explained below.
Kern4Good is made for associations that need a normal website. A large foundation or a federation with hundreds of pages and several teams does not fit in it, and it is not a matter of budget: it is a matter of risk and responsibilities. The guide Website levels explains the six levels.
These projects are run at KERN-IT's agency rate, or elsewhere, and we say so at the first conversation.
400 € excl. VAT per day of work
That is what one day of the team costs KERN-IT: salary and charges, tools, training, infrastructure, R&D. At KernWeb's agency rate, the same day is invoiced 600 €. The difference, one third, is the margin Kern4Good does not take.
Day rates observed in Belgium for web work, excluding beginner freelancers. At cost is not the lowest price on the market: it is the price of an agency team (designer, developer, project manager) without the agency margin.

The price of a website is days of work and trades around your project. Slide the cursor: at each tier, what you really buy, up to the large institutional website, on quote at the same day rate.
4 000 €excl. VAT
10 days of workA designer, a developer, a training for your team.
The small editable website. Wagtail, three or four page templates, a blog, a half-day training. Ten days of work, on a closed scope.
Every offer, from 1 200 EUR, makes the website readable by Google and by AI engines. Being found on the queries that matter to you is regular work, counted in days per month, on your side or ours.
With that, the website is indexed within days and found on your name. That is the foundation, it is done once.
Count a few days a month, two to four depending on ambition, whether the association's team provides them or the technical team does. Results show in three to six months. The guide Getting your association's website found details this plan over twelve months.
Included the first year on editable websites. Then 75 € per month per association, pooled (against 100 to 150 € observed for a single website). The code belongs to you: you can host elsewhere. Static websites cost less: quoted in the offer.
Calendar, membership form, donation button to a payment platform, simple directory: from 250 €, quoted before commitment. Nothing is added without a quote.
On quote, at cost: management tools, CRM, AI, training, search visibility support. A free first conversation, then a quote that states the days and what they cover.
Integrations, custom tools, portals: KERN-IT's agency rates with 10% off for associations, on quote.
Kern4Good is the impact hub of KERN-IT, not a profit centre. At cost means one day of work at 400 € excl. VAT (against 600 € at the agency rate), multiplied by the number of days the website requires, plus hosting. It is below the market because KERN-IT takes no margin, because the small tiers rely on a Kern4Good base and on AI, and because cohorts pool the foundation, the workshops and the training between five associations.
Each tier matches a need, not a range: a launch website at 1 200 EUR is a real website, without editor; a complete website at 8 000 EUR is the agency's Business website, an investment for ten years. The guide Redoing your association's website helps to choose.
Regional aids (Prime Digitalisation in Brussels, Walloon and Flemish schemes) can reduce what remains to pay depending on your association's eligibility. We check it with you: the guide Grants and digital aids for Belgian non-profits explains how.
One day of work at 400 EUR excl. VAT, what it costs KERN-IT (salary and charges, tools, training, infrastructure, R&D), against 600 EUR at the agency rate. Each tier is a number of days at that rate, plus hosting, with no margin or commission; prices are "from", a project can sit between two tiers and the quote states the days. Cohorts also pool the foundation, the workshops and the training.
At the same 400 EUR excl. VAT day as the websites, on quote, after a free first conversation. We do not publish a fixed price because the scope changes from one association to another: the quote states the days, what they cover and what stays with you.
Pooled hosting and maintenance: 75 EUR per month per association, against 100 to 150 EUR observed for a single website. The domain name stays with you (a few euros a year). Nothing else, except the modules you ask for, quoted before commitment.
Two questions are enough. Will you publish yourself every week? If not, a static website (1 200 or 2 400 EUR) is enough and costs less to maintain. Do you have a lot of existing content, several languages or modules (calendar, membership, directory)? If so, the complete website at 8 000 EUR, or the Source Hub partner cohort if five associations gather. The first conversation is there to decide honestly, and we say when the tier below is enough.
The technical base, yes, in every offer from 1 200 EUR: structure, titles and descriptions, sitemap, performance, mobile, structured data, llms.txt. Being found on the queries that matter to you then requires regular work (content, links, follow-up, optimisation for AI engines), a few days a month, on your side or as at-cost support. It is not a task in the quote, and we say so beforehand.
For web work, excluding beginners: a confirmed web freelancer charges 500 to 700 EUR a day (UNIZO: 70 EUR an hour on average; Belgian median 700 EUR on dailyrate.be, 905 rates in March 2026), an established agency 640 to 1 000 EUR. KernWeb, the web hub of KERN-IT, is at 600 EUR; Kern4Good at 400 EUR, the cost price. The sources are on this page, with their date.
Because that is what one day of the team costs KERN-IT: salary and charges, tools, training, infrastructure, R&D. Below that, it would take volunteers or beginners without supervision, and the programme would not last. At cost is not the lowest price on the market: it is the price of an agency team without the agency margin.
Not on the day rate, and rarely on the final price. Compare the days and what they contain: a Kern4Good tier includes a designer, a developer and a project manager, a foundation already built, hosting for the first year and a training. A single freelancer often needs more days to cover the same trades. The right comparison is the final price and what is included, not the day rate.
Because an agency carries a margin, sales costs, project management, offices and a guarantee. Kern4Good charges neither margin nor sales costs; KERN-IT carries the rest. That is what explains the gap, and that is what the end-of-cohort report shows, day by day.
None of the ladder, and it is not the page count as such: it is what it implies. An acquired ranking to preserve page by page, redirects, several teams or countries validating, team trainings, a transition period where every mistake costs visits. Kern4Good is made for associations that need a normal website; a project of that size is an agency project, at KERN-IT at the agency rate or elsewhere, and we say so at the first conversation. The guide Website levels explains why.
In none. As soon as there are accounts and people's data, the website changes category: GDPR (you are the data controller, we are the processor, with a contract), continuous security, recurring maintenance, and a shared responsibility, written down before starting. The private area is quoted separately, with the recurring cost. A ten-page public website with a members' area costs more than a fifty-page public website without one.
Because the need changes from one association to another. A launch website at 1 200 EUR (three days: a few pages generated with AI, no editor) serves an association that is starting; a complete website at 8 000 EUR (twenty days: multilingual, eight templates, modules) serves an established association. In between, the complete static website at 2 400 EUR (six days) and the small editable website at 4 000 EUR (ten days). The sponsored cohort stays at 0 for the association, and the Source Hub partner cohort has its own conditions.
