Your subscription
Customers have the ability to select subscription plans for your organization, allowing you to provision accounts in real-time.
A table displays your cost for each plan, and the built-in cost calculator will show you the total cost of subscriptions on a per-organization level before purchasing the subscription.
DNSFilter accepts Visa, Mastercard, American Express, Discover, and Diners Club debit and credit cards from customers in every country. ACH, check, wire transfer, and payment terms are available for some customers; contact our Support team for details.
Select a subscription plan
DNSFilter’s standard subscription model is per-user. This means that billing is based upon the number of users in the organization which have internet access.
Choose a monthly or annual billing cycle (the annual billing cycle provides a discount), which begins on the date the subscription is saved.
✍️ Selecting a billing plan during the trial period will convert the account and begin the billing cycle.
For more billing information and plan types, visit our Pricing Page.
Educational Organization discounts
Our educational pricing is based on all students and staff registered at the school (full time and part time, regardless of age). The rate is $4 per person per year (with a $500 minimum). We require a signed letter from an administrative member of that school, on official letterhead, which confirms the number of students and staff. Education pricing is available for K-12 Schools and Colleges & Universities.
