Frequently Asked Questions

Got questions? We’ve got answers. We cover all questions associated with membership.

What is an Archivi.ng Membership?

A recurring way to support our work. Members help fund preservation while getting closer to the archives with updates, community, and growing tools.

How is a membership different from a donation?

Memberships are monthly or yearly support with community perks (and a free tier to start). Donations are one-time gifts for anyone or organisation that wants to fuel the mission right now.

Is there a free tier?

Yes—Roots. It lets you step into the community, browse public archives, and try the tools with light limits. Upgrade anytime

What happens after I join?

You get immediate access to your plan, a welcome email with tips, and your name added to the Supporters’ Wall, based on your eligibility

Can I change or cancel anytime?

Yes: upgrade, downgrade, or cancel from your account. Changes take effect on the next billing cycle.

What do I get today—and what’s still in beta?

Immediate access to searchable archives, Context by Archiving with citations, and saving/organising sources (more power on higher tiers). Exports and API are rolling out; some features are in active development—members get early access and help shape the roadmap
