Criteria

What we list

The same rules apply to every program in the catalog, whoever sends it.

  • A real offer for startups. Credits, a discount, a free or extended plan, or a program with its own application.
  • Terms on your own site. Every figure on a listing cites the provider's own page, so we list what that page says. A page made for founders who find you here works too, for example yourdomain.com/startupperks.
  • Clear eligibility. That page says who qualifies: stage, funding, company age or region, or that any startup can apply.
  • A way to claim it. An application form, a code, or an address to write to.

Listing is free, and a position cannot be bought.

StartupPerks ranks by the underlying facts (benefit value and how well you qualify), and a partner never changes a value or an eligibility rule. Partner status is one bounded, disclosed signal in how results are ordered: all else equal it can lift a partner above a comparable option, but never above a clearly bigger or more relevant benefit, and every partner is labeled. We show a value only when we have a real source for it; when we do not, we show an honest gap, never an invented number.

  1. 1Send the program below, with the page that states its terms.
  2. 2We read that page and add the program, citing it. If anything is unclear, we email you first.
  3. 3We re-read listed pages on a schedule. When the terms change, the listing follows the page; when a program closes, we mark it closed or take it down.

FAQ

Common questions

Does it cost anything to be listed?

No. Listing on StartupPerks is free, and a position cannot be bought: programs are ordered by the size of the benefit and how well a founder qualifies. If your program has a referral or affiliate program you can tell us about it, but a listing never depends on one, and any link that can earn us a commission is labeled.

Can we offer something extra to founders who find us here?

Yes. Publish the offer on a page on your own site with its terms and how to redeem it, then send us that page. It is listed under the same rules as every other program.

What do you check before a program goes live?

That the page is on the provider's own site, that it states what founders get and who qualifies, and that every figure we show matches it. We do not publish a number the page does not state.

How long until a program appears?

We review submissions in the order they arrive and add a program in the next catalog update once its page checks out. If something is unclear, we email you instead of guessing.

How do we update a listing or tell you a program ended?

Use this form and choose an update to a listing, or the Send us an update link at the bottom of the program's page. We check the change against your page before it goes live.

Can founders suggest a program?

Yes. Choose that you are a founder suggesting a program and link the provider's page. It is listed once that page states the terms.
