Keep the cost down without a program
Vendors often drop startup offers once they move upmarket to enterprise buyers. These still work for an early team.
- Check 1Password's pricing page for a free trial before buying seats.
- Ask 1Password sales for a first-year discount even though no startup program is listed.
- Buy business seats only for people who need shared vaults and add more as you hire.
- Look at the Ramp Rewards route under Compliance Programs in this directory, where password management may come bundled with other security spend.
- Consider an open-source password manager such as Bitwarden if you can manage it yourself.
About
We could not find a 1Password startup program. The link this entry used leads to the 1Password for Open Source repository, which offers a free 1Password Teams account to open-source projects. That is a program for open-source maintainers, not for startups, so the name and framing of this entry did not match what the page offers.
If you maintain an active open-source project, the open-source program is still worth a look. If you need password management and compliance tooling as a startup, the live programs below are a better starting point.
Frequently asked about 1Password for Startups
Is 1Password for Startups still available?
1Password does not list a startup program we could verify. The link this entry used leads to a free Teams account for open-source projects only, not for startups. Checked October 10, 2026.
What should startups use instead of 1Password for Startups?
The closest live options are compliance-programs, 1Password for Open Source. Each one is listed with its current terms and application link on this page.
Why is this page still published if the program ended?
Because founders still search for it. Removing the page would send them to third-party sites that are still republishing the old terms as if they were current. Keeping it, with the offer stripped out, is the only way to correct the record at the place people actually look.
How can I tell whether a startup credit program is still live?
Open the provider's own startup or partner page and look for a working application form with stated eligibility and credit amounts. Aggregator sites routinely keep listings up for years after a program ends, so a deal roundup is not evidence that the program exists.
