Do you have special plans for open source projects,

non-profits, and other non-commercial entities?
|
||
</div>
|
||
<p class="answer">
|
||
Yes! Zulip Cloud Standard is free for open source
|
||
projects; we're proud to fully sponsor hundreds of
|
||
worthy organizations. We also offer steep discounts (usually
|
||
85%-100%) for non-profits, education, and research, and in other
|
||
scenarios where most of the users are not full-time
|
||
employees of the customer. Generally, only closed
|
||
organizations that also pay their members’
|
||
salaries pay full price.

Yes! Some of our biggest fans have hundreds or thousands

How are guest users billed?
|

</div>
|
||
<p class="answer">
|
||
Guests cannot see or join streams they are not invited
|

to. Guests subscribed to more than 1 stream are billed
|
||
like regular users. Guests subscribed to a single stream
|
||
are generally free, unless you have more than 5 times as
|
||
many single-stream guests as paying users. More details
|
||
are available <a href="/help/roles-and-permissions">here</a>.

How does the free plan message limit work?

<p class="answer">
|

Only the most recent 10,000 messages can be viewed

and searched with Zulip Free. Older messages are
|

still stored and will become available again
|

should the organization purchase a paid plan or
|
||
get Zulip Cloud Standard free because they are an
|

open source project or similar organization.

What is the difference between automatic and manual billing?
|
||
</div>
|
||
<p class="answer">
|
||
With automatic billing, you automatically purchase a Zulip license
|
||
for each user in your organization at the start of each billing period
|
||
(month or year). Deactivating a user frees up their license for reuse.
|
||
Additional licenses are purchased automatically as needed.
|
||
|
||
With manual billing, you choose and pay for a preset user limit. If
|
||
the limit is reached, no more users can join until licenses are manually
|
||
added.
|
||
|
||
In general, we highly recommend selecting automatic billing unless you
|
||
have a specific reason to do otherwise.
