What Tamigo does

Tamigo (legal entity tamigo ApS) is a Copenhagen-headquartered cloud SaaS provider of workforce management software purpose-built for the retail and hospitality sectors. Founded in 2006 by Jakob Toftgaard after a shift-planning request from Danish restaurant chain Sticks'n'Sushi, the company delivers a unified platform covering employee scheduling, time and attendance, payroll export, HR data management, internal communication, KPI and financial reporting, and a mobile self-service app. The platform supports 20 languages and configurable compliance with national labour laws and collective agreements across 20 European countries, enabling multi-location retailers, hotel chains, restaurants, supermarkets, and luxury brands to standardize workforce operations across borders.

The product architecture is multi-tenant cloud SaaS with an open API, SSO-enabled authentication (tamigo Signin), pre-built integrations with HRM/HCM, payroll, POS, ERP, PMS, RCP, and BI tools (including Power BI), and complementary components such as the "tamigo Touch" digital time clock and iOS/Android employee applications. The customer evidence base is anchored by roughly 20 named enterprise logos spanning hotels (Marriott, 25hours, Pestana, Hotel des Nordens), food service (McDonald's, Subway, Sticks'n'Sushi, Lakrids by Johan Bülow), retail (Salomon across 11 European countries, Spar, ALDI Denmark in nearly 200 stores, Bolia, Bijou Brigitte, Scotch & Soda, Triumph, Intersport, REMA 1000), and luxury brands (Shiseido, Molton Brown), supplemented by SMB references such as Danhostel.

Tamigo operates a tiered subscription model with four plans (Essential from €15 per location per month, Standard from €30 per location per month, Advanced custom-priced, and Premium custom-priced with dedicated Customer Success Manager) sold via a hybrid motion combining a self-serve 30-day free trial with regional enterprise field-sales teams covering DACH, Nordic, Benelux, Iberia, and Central Europe. Professional services (training, implementation, consulting) and usage-based SMS charges provide secondary revenue. The company was backed by Viking Growth from 2019 (€9.3 million invested; business tripled under ownership) and in March 2026 transitioned to Accel-KKR, joining a Nordic HR software group alongside portfolio companies 4Human and Eletive.
