Atlassian donates 100% of Starter License payments to charity, absorbing all transactions costs incurred in payment processing. Rather than distribute small amounts of money to a number of organizations, the staff of Atlassian have chosen to support a single non-profit organization called Room to Read. Room to Read has established more than 13,000 libraries and constructed more than 1,500 schools in developing nations. The Atlassian Foundation will make a donation equivalent to your payment to www.roomtoread.org.

Please Note: Given the charitable nature of monies collected from Starter Licenses, we are unable to offer refunds or exchanges for Starter License purchases.

* Source code is not available for the following: Jira Service Desk, Team Calendars for Confluence.

Note: Entry-level licenses are available for third-party Marketplace add-ons at the tiers above, but these are not included in the Starter License program.

We also offer Free subscriptions for Atlassian cloud. Our Free plans are free forever – no cost and no commitment for teams of up to 10 users and/or 3 agents. Reduce costs by eliminating maintenance and physical hardware, keep your team safe and compliant with industry-leading privacy and security including GDPR and Privacy Shield, and always have access to the latest and greatest new features without manually updating your instance.

Atlassian Starter Licenses are just USD $10 each. Australian customers must add 10% GST.

We also offer Free subscriptions for Atlassian cloud for up to 10 users and/or 3 agents. Learn more here.

If you have purchased an Atlassian Starter License, you can access your license key via your My.Atlassian account.

Due to processing and handling costs we're only able to accept credit card payments for Starter Licenses.

Oh that's getting a bit fancy. The10-user Starter licenses can not be combined to form a single license of greater than 10-users. Starter Licenses can be upgraded at the cost of a new license at the higher tier. You can get additional information on the pricing of each product from the tabs on the left.

Free cloud software plansStarter licenses are for our downloadable editions of our products. We also offer Free subscriptions for Atlassian Cloud.

The license is perpetual and includes 12 months of software maintenance (which entitles you to software updates) for a full year. Starter licenses can be renewed annually for just $10 to extend the software maintenance

However, we also offer Free subscriptions for Atlassian cloud. Learn more here.

Support for our starter licenses program is available exclusively through the Atlassian Community.

To continue receiving software updates, you will need to renew your software maintenance for a $10 renewal fee. The monies collected from renewals of Starter Licenses will also be donated to charity. The license holder will be contacted by email prior to the expiration of the included software maintenance period, to serve as a reminder. This email will provide details on how specifically you can renew your software maintenance.

When purchasing a Starter License, you can purchase up to 3 years of maintenance in advance (3 x $10 = $30). You can also renew your Starter License at any time, up to a maximum of 3 years into the future.

Please Note: All maintenance renewals commence from the previous date of expiration.  If your maintenance has lapsed, it makes more sense to purchase a new license. You can just drop the new license key into your existing instance - there is no need to reinstall the software.

You will need to upgrade to a commercial license that supports the number of users you require. You can find additional information on the pricing of each respective product on the tabs to the left.

If you’d prefer to avoid manual version updates, we also offer Free subscriptions for Atlassian cloud. Learn more here.

If the Starter License is sufficient for your needs, go ahead and buy it.

However, if you are trialing our products for deployment in a production environment that requires more users or functionality, then we recommend using a free 30-day trial license. This lets you trial our products with a larger number of users, but limited to a trial period.

We also offer Free subscriptions for Atlassian cloud for up to 10 users and/or 3 agents. Learn more here.

Atlassian believes that responsible businesses give back to the community. We want to take the proceeds from all of our Starter Licenses and donate them to charity. We feel $10 for a 10-user license is a very, very fair price.

We also offer a Free plan of our cloud products for up to 10 users (Jira Software, Jira Core, Confluence) and 3 agents (Jira Service Desk), 2 GB of storage, Community Support, and no audit logs. Jira Software, Jira Core, and Confluence also have permission restrictions and will not include anonymous access in the Free plan.

Jira Software, Confluence, Crowd, Jira Core, Jira Service Desk, Team Calendars for Confluence and Bitbucket Server Starter Licenses are for fully featured versions. As Fisheye and Bamboo license tiers vary by functionality rather than the number of users, Starter Licenses for Fisheye allow ten users, ten committers per repository, as well as a total of five repositories. Bamboo allows up to 10 local build jobs.

As Advanced Roadmaps for Jira is linked to Jira's licensing, Advanced Roadmaps for Jira Starter Licenses will only function when used in conjunction with a Jira Software Starter License.

No, our Starter Licenses are just $10 each. This includes 12 months of software maintenance (which entitles you to software updates). Furthermore, the amount you will pay in subsequent years for additional years of Starter License software maintenance is just $10. Support for our starter licenses program is available exclusively through the Atlassian Community.

Absolutely. The Atlassian Starter Licenses are not restricted to small companies and can be used by companies of any size. If you find that 10-user licenses are not sufficient for your team size, you can purchase a different edition that allows a higher number of users at any point in time.

We also offer Free subscriptions for Atlassian cloud for up to 10 users and/or 3 agents. Learn more here.

Atlassian products are used by more than 50,000 customers worldwide.

Unfortunately not. The reason is that you are actually purchasing the license and Atlassian is making the charitable donation on your behalf. Last time we did a program like this we donated over $100,000 to charity, so every small contribution adds up.

While both Starter licenses and Free cloud subscriptions are suitable for small teams, we recommend our Free cloud subscriptions unless you have strict data requirements. Our Free cloud subscriptions are free for up to 10 users and/or 3 agents, meet strong security and compliance standards, and don’t require any physical hardware, manual upgrading, or maintenance. We do the hard work for you so your team can use its resources to focus on the work that really matters.

Make sure you have a starter-license-enabled version installed:

All Starter Licenses require that you have no more than 10 users for the license to function, except for:

• Fisheye: 10 committers but no more than 5 repositories
• Crucible: no more than 5 users
• Bamboo: no more than 10 local build plans
• Crowd: no more than 50 users

• Fisheye: 10 committers but no more than 5 repositories

Because the proceeds of the Starter Licenses go directly to charity, we decided to set the renewal price to 100% of the purchase price: $10.

Renewing maintenance for a Starter License costs the same as purchasing a new Starter License: both are just $10! But if your maintenance has already expired, it makes more sense to purchase a new license rather than a renewal to make sure you get the most for your money, as all renewals commence from the previous date of expiration and you will be charged for lapsed maintenance.

Either way, you can just drop the new license key into your existing instance - there is no need to reinstall the software.

If you’re interested in moving to cloud, we also offer Free subscriptions for our Atlassian cloud products for up to 10 users and/or 3 agents. Learn more here.

Yes, you can buy maintenance for up to 2 years in advance.

No, given the fixed cost of Starter Licenses we can not provide this service.

You will need to purchase a commercial license that supports the number of users you require. You can find additional information on the pricing of each respective product on the tabs to the left.

With the introduction of Jira 4.0 and this Starter Program, Jira moved to a user-based licensing model. This means that all editions now have full Enterprise functionality, which was previously only available in the Jira Enterprise Edition (RRP US$4,800).

The $10 Starter License for Fisheye is restricted to no more than 10 committers total per repository and 5 repositories, whereas your full 10-User Fisheye has unlimited repositories and unlimited committers per repository.

Fisheye Starter Licenses are restricted to no more than 10 users in Fisheye, 10 committers total per repository, and 5 repositories.

If you have more than five repositories, Fisheye will prevent more than five repositories from being enabled at any given time. Administrators can control which five repositories are enabled.

For all SCMs other than CVS Fisheye will index all revisions up to but not including the revision that introduced the 11th committer. Since CVS is indexing is file-by-file based, Fisheye will index files until it reaches the committer limit. Remaining files in the repository are not indexed. This means only files which have been indexed will be displayed in changesets and changesets may be incomplete.

Fisheye will only start indexing on the first five repositories. An administrator can use admin UI to adjust which repositories are enabled and hence control the five repositories that are started. Fisheye should then be restarted.

Fisheye will display all information currently indexed but for each repository that has reached the ten committer limit, no further revisions will be indexed.

On restart of Fisheye, indexing will resume for all repositories. Each repository can restarted individually to avoid restarting Fisheye. Due to the nature of CVS indexing, we recommend reindexing any CVS repositories which have reached the committer limit prior to the license upgrade.

On restart of Fisheye, all enabled repositories will start. Each repository can restarted individually to avoid restarting Fisheye.

As described above, a maximum of five repositories will start and for any repository with more than 10 committers, no further indexing will occur. All existing indexed content is retained and can be viewed.

A maximum of five of your configured repositories will start running. The remainder will not start but will continue to be available.

No further indexing will occur for the repositories where the committer limit has been exceeded.

Training sessions are delivered as interactive webinars and online video resources. The course is delivered with a set of PowerPoint slides, using practical examples from within Jira or Confluence.

The Crucible Starter will work with both Starter and commercial Fisheye installations and will mirror Fisheye's repository restrictions (e.g. if working with a Fisheye Starter with limited repos, Crucible will only support that number of repos; if commercial Fisheye then there will be no repo number restrictions)

With a Bamboo Starter License, you are restricted to 10 build Jobs, and 0 remote agents, but can run unlimited local agents.  A Job is a single build unit within a Plan. One or more Jobs can be organized into one or more Stages. Given a 10 Job limit, you may distribute your Jobs between up to 10 Plans - for example, one Job per Plan or all 10 Jobs within one Plan. There is no limit on the number of times a Plan is built/executed.

Please note that use of the Plan Branches has a multiplicative effect on the number of jobs configured, and therefore an effect on the 10 jobs cap. For example, a plan with two jobs that is building against a total of three branches (the plan's original branch, plus two additional branches) will contribute 6 jobs toward the limit.
