FAQ about Mautic for nonprofits
Is Mautic's self-hosted software free?
Yes. Mautic's software is free and open source under GPLv3, with no licence fee for self-hosting. The product page states unlimited contacts and users, while infrastructure and delivery costs remain outside the free software licence.
Does Mautic offer special nonprofit pricing?
The cited access information states no nonprofit-only discount or eligibility condition. The no-fee path is the GPLv3 self-hosted software for any organization that can run it, rather than a special nonprofit hosted service.
What must a nonprofit still pay for?
A self-hosted organization must pay for suitable infrastructure, email delivery and any support it chooses. Managed Mautic starts at EUR 247.50 per month with annual billing or EUR 275 per month with quarterly billing, according to the official partner page.
When is managed Mautic relevant to the cost decision?
The self-hosted licence has no software fee but requires infrastructure and administration. Managed Mautic is the documented paid alternative, starting at EUR 247.50 monthly on annual billing, so it matters when an organization chooses paid hosting and support.
