Open Source

Starter — free for a year

Maintaining a public project? We'll cover the panel for its infrastructure.

  • A public repository with active development

  • A repository link in the application is enough

FAQ

FAQ

No. The grant is activated without a card and never turns into a paid subscription automatically. When it expires, we'll simply email you.
No. Deploykin is a control panel, not a hosting provider: any VPS from any provider works. The grant pairs well with student hosting plans and cloud credits.
Nothing gets switched off abruptly. We'll contact you in advance and offer to renew the grant if you still qualify, or to move to a regular plan.
The student and open source tracks are for studying, pet projects and open code. For client and commercial projects there are regular plans and the agency program.
Usually within 2–3 business days. The reply goes to the email you applied from.
Just send the application from your university email address (the institution's domain). No photo of a student ID or other documents is needed — we don't collect or store them.
We use it only to review your grant application and to contact you. After the review we delete the application data. See the privacy policy for details.
We enable Pro for 3 months and you publish a piece about Deploykin on your platform. A partnership disclosure is required; the content and opinions are entirely yours — we only agree on the topic and platform.
