Do you have special plans for open source projects, non-profits, groups of friends, and other non-commercial entities?

Yes! Zulip Cloud Standard is free for open source projects and affiliated institutions. We also offer steep discounts to non-profits, educational institutions, groups of friends, and in scenarios where most of the users are not paid employees (e.g. company support forums). Just contact sales@zulipchat.com and we’d be happy to discuss your situation!

You may also be interested in Zulip for open source projects or Zulip for working groups and other part-time communities.

Does Zulip scale to a large number of users?

Yes! Some of our biggest fans have hundreds or thousands of users, including Fortune 500 companies like Akamai, and open source communities like The Recurse Center. If you'd like to see a large Zulip in action, the Zulip community server has thousands of accounts and hundreds of weekly active users, and is run on a single machine with 8GB of RAM.

Can I pay by credit card and/or invoice?

You can always use a credit card to pay, and we can bill by invoice for amounts over $1000.

Can I start on Zulip Cloud and later move to On-Premise?

Yes! Our high quality export and import tools (cloud, on-premise) ensure you can always move from our hosting to yours (and back). If you’d like to do a migration, email support@zulipchat.com and we'll get you started!

Who can I contact if I have further questions?
