# GitLab subscription **(PREMIUM)**
2019-07-31 22:56:46 +05:30
2020-11-24 15:15:51 +05:30
GitLab offers tiers of features. Your subscription determines which tier you
have access to. Subscriptions are valid for 12 months.
2019-07-31 22:56:46 +05:30
2020-11-24 15:15:51 +05:30
GitLab provides special subscriptions to participants in:
2019-07-31 22:56:46 +05:30
2021-09-04 01:27:46 +05:30
- [Education](#gitlab-for-education)
- [Open Source](#gitlab-for-open-source)
2019-07-31 22:56:46 +05:30
2020-11-24 15:15:51 +05:30
## Choose a GitLab subscription
2019-07-31 22:56:46 +05:30
2020-11-24 15:15:51 +05:30
When choosing a subscription, there are two factors to consider:
2019-07-31 22:56:46 +05:30
2021-03-11 19:13:27 +05:30
- [GitLab SaaS or GitLab self-managed](#choose-between-gitlab-saas-or-gitlab-self-managed)
2020-11-24 15:15:51 +05:30
- [GitLab tier](#choose-a-gitlab-tier)
2019-07-31 22:56:46 +05:30
2021-03-11 19:13:27 +05:30
### Choose between GitLab SaaS or GitLab self-managed
2019-07-31 22:56:46 +05:30
2020-11-24 15:15:51 +05:30
There are some differences in how a subscription applies, depending if you use
2021-03-11 19:13:27 +05:30
GitLab SaaS or GitLab self-managed:
2019-10-12 21:52:04 +05:30
2021-03-11 19:13:27 +05:30
- [GitLab SaaS](gitlab_com/index.md): The GitLab software-as-a-service offering.
You don't need to install anything to use GitLab SaaS, you only need to
2020-11-24 15:15:51 +05:30
[sign up](https://gitlab.com/users/sign_up) and start using GitLab straight away.
- [GitLab self-managed](self_managed/index.md): Install, administer, and maintain
your own GitLab instance.
2019-07-31 22:56:46 +05:30
2021-03-11 19:13:27 +05:30
On a GitLab self-managed instance, a GitLab subscription provides the same set of
2022-06-21 17:19:12 +05:30
features for _all_ users. On GitLab SaaS, you can apply a subscription to a group
namespace. You cannot apply a subscription to a personal namespace.
2020-04-22 19:07:51 +05:30
2021-02-22 17:27:13 +05:30
NOTE:
2021-03-11 19:13:27 +05:30
Subscriptions cannot be transferred between GitLab SaaS and GitLab self-managed.
2020-11-24 15:15:51 +05:30
A new subscription must be purchased and applied as needed.
2019-10-12 21:52:04 +05:30
2020-11-24 15:15:51 +05:30
### Choose a GitLab tier
2019-10-12 21:52:04 +05:30
2020-11-24 15:15:51 +05:30
Pricing is [tier-based](https://about.gitlab.com/pricing/), allowing you to choose
the features which fit your budget. For information on what features are available
at each tier for each product, see:

2019-12-21 20:55:43 +05:30

Subscription charges are calculated based on the total number of users in a group, including its subgroups and nested projects. If the [total number of users](gitlab_com/index.md#view-seat-usage) exceeds the number of seats in your subscription, your account is charged for the additional users and you need to pay for the overage before you can change the linked namespace.
2019-07-31 22:56:46 +05:30
2021-09-04 01:27:46 +05:30

#### Verification for Open Source program
As part of the [application verification process](https://about.gitlab.com/solutions/open-source/join/), you must upload <b>three screenshots</b>.
These are the three screenshots that are needed to qualify you for the GitLab for Open Source program.
- [OSI-approved license overview](#screenshot-1-license-overview)
- [OSI-approved license file](#screenshot-2-license-file)
- [Publicly visible settings](#screenshot-3-publicly-visible-settings)
##### OSI-approved license
You must apply an [OSI-approved license](https://opensource.org/licenses/) to each project in your group before you can be verified.
Add the license to the LICENSE file so that it shows up in the overview section of the project. This allows contributors to see it at a glance.
It's best to copy and paste the entire license into the file in its original form. GitLab defaults to **All rights reserved** if no license file is mentioned.
You must ensure that you add the correct license to each project within your group.
After you ensure that you are using OSI-approved licenses for your projects, you can take your screenshots.
2021-09-30 23:02:18 +05:30
##### Screenshot 1: License overview
2021-09-04 01:27:46 +05:30
On the left sidebar, select **Project information > Details**. Take a screenshot that includes a view of the license you've chosen for your project.
![License overview](img/license-overview.png)
2021-09-30 23:02:18 +05:30
##### Screenshot 2: License file
2021-09-04 01:27:46 +05:30
Navigate to one of the license files that you uploaded. You can usually find the license file by selecting **Project information > Details** and scanning the page for the license.
Make sure the screenshot includes the title of the license.
![License file](img/license-file.png)
##### Screenshot 3: Publicly visible settings
The goal of the GitLab for Open Source program is to enable collaboration on open source projects.
As a pre-condition to collaboration, people must be able to view the open source project.
As a result, we ask that all projects under this license are publicly visible.
Follow these instructions to take a screenshot of the publicly visible settings:
1. Go to your project and select **Settings**.
1. Expand **Visibility, project features, permissions**.
1. Set **Project Visibility** to **Public**.
1. Ensure others can request access by selecting the **Users can request access** checkbox.
1. Take the screenshot. Include as much of the publicly visible settings as possible. Make sure to include your project's name in the
upper-left of the screenshot.
![Publicly visible setting](img/publicly-visible.png)
NOTE:
From time to time, GitLab allows exceptions. One or two projects within a group can be private if there is a legitimate need for it, for example,
if a project holds sensitive data. Email `opensource@gitlab.com` with details of your use case to request written permission for exceptions.
### GitLab for Startups
For qualifying startups, the [GitLab for Startups](https://about.gitlab.com/solutions/startups/) program provides
2022-03-02 08:16:31 +05:30
the top GitLab tier, plus 50,000 CI/CD minutes per month for 12 months.
2021-09-04 01:27:46 +05:30
For more information, including program requirements, see the [Startup program's landing page](https://about.gitlab.com/solutions/startups/).

### Support for Community Programs
2022-06-21 17:19:12 +05:30

<!-- ## Troubleshooting
Include any troubleshooting steps that you can foresee. If you know beforehand what issues
one might have when setting this up, or when something is changed, or on upgrading, it's
important to describe those, too. Think of things that may go wrong and include them here.
This is important to minimize requests for support, and to avoid doc comments with
questions that you know someone might ask.
Each scenario can be a third-level heading, e.g. `### Getting error message X`.
If you have none to add when creating a doc, leave this section in place
but commented out to help encourage others to add to it in the future. -->
