FAQ

Can I get Atlassian products for free?
  

All Atlassian products have a free forever tier that have limited feature sets. Community License discounts are a 75% discount on the Standard and Premium paid licenses.
I’m an academic institution, student, or educator do I qualify for the Community License?
  

Atlassian offers separate discount licenses for Academic institutions, students, and educators. Apply here if you are an institution. Students and educators can apply for our Classroom License discount.
How do you verify eligibility?
  

Atlassian partners with Goodstack - a leading nonprofit technology platform - to verify that applying organizations meet Atlassian’s eligibility criteria.

To assess your organization’s eligibility for a Community License, Goodstack reviews the information provided in your application, public information, and ensures alignment with the following criteria:

  • Does not operate at the expense of the environment, human rights or dignity, or public safety
  • Does not advocate for or against any political party, candidate, or campaign

  • Does not discriminate against, marginalize or exclude any person or group on the basis of personal characteristics or attributes

All new and existing Community License applicants are reviewed by Goodstack against the same qualification standards and guidelines. Please be aware that Goodstack may need additional information from you in order to confirm eligibility for discounted licensing.

If you have any questions about qualifications, please contact us. For more information about approved documentation for valid nonprofits, see Nonprofit verification guidance.
What Atlassian products are discounted?

Atlassian Cloud Subscriptions - 100% off list price

  • Bitbucket Cloud - Standard
  • Atlassian Access (enterprise-grade security and centralized administration across all your Atlassian cloud products)
What documentation is needed in the discount application?
  

On the application form there is a field to automatically identify your nonprofit by name or Registration ID. If your organization is not recognized by the system you can manually input the following:

  • Organization name
  • Registry name
  • Registry ID
  • Website
  • Supporting evidence of your official nonprofit status
What is the difference between Cloud products and Data Center for nonprofits?
  

Atlassian Cloud products are connected to the cloud which means they are always-on, continuously updated, and highly secure. All Atlassian products are built on one Cloud platform which allows for a connected experience across Atlassian products and third party tools. For nonprofits, Cloud is 75% off, and what we recommend for most nonprofit teams.

Data Center is Free for nonprofits. It is self managed. Your organization would host Atlassian products on your own infrastructure or through cloud providers like AWS and Azure. Hosting on your own infrastructure requires internal resources and technical expertise to effectively implement and maintain the software yourself.

The fine print

Atlassian aims to unleash the potential of every team, including all nonprofit teams, but not every organization may meet Atlassian’s Community License eligibility criteria.

Atlassian verifies nonprofit Community License eligibility in partnership with Goodstack, yet determines qualification for discounted licenses at its sole discretion. We reserve the right to grant or deny an individual or organization’s application for a discounted license, or to discontinue an active discounted license, at any time, for any reason, and to supplement or amend our Community License eligibility guidelines at any time.
