What Vinspired costs, and what stays free

Volunteers never pay. Every organisation has a free level. You pay only when you run a programme of your own.

  • Finding volunteering
  • Recording your hours
  • Earning recognition

Free for every volunteer and every organisation, permanently. See what stays free

One amount a year, per organisation. Never per volunteer, never per pupil, never per hour.

Support as an organisation

From £5 a month

or any amount you choose

Gain one of our prestigious supporter badges.

It sits beside your name, if you want it shown: recognition, and proof that you chose to give. Share what your support keeps free, and bring others with you. Optional, and it unlocks no features.

Because of supporters, the free level stays free for whoever comes next.

A Friend likes that Vinspired exists. A Believer wants it to grow. A Champion keeps the free level free.

Vinspired is free, and it will stay free.

Everything vInspired was built to do, finding volunteering, doing it, and being recognised for it, costs nothing here. For as many people as you like and for as long as you like. No trial, no cap, no end date. Volunteers never pay to use Vinspired.

The first Vinspired closed in 2018 when its funding ran out. This one is a company that pays for itself, so the free level does not depend on a grant being renewed. Why there is a price at all

See what stays free

The hours matter.
So does what happens next.

  1. Take part

    Find opportunities and bring people together around a cause.

  2. Record the contribution

    Log volunteering hours and have them verified by an organisation or referee.

  3. Recognise the impact

    Celebrate volunteering with certificates and a profile that makes the contribution visible.

Four things that will not change

These are the same on every level, including the free ones.

  1. Volunteers never pay to use Vinspired.

    Not to join, not to log hours, not for a certificate, not later. Supporting us is separate, and always optional.

  2. The record level is free for every organisation and school, permanently.

    With no cap on volunteers or students.

  3. No price per head.

    Nothing is priced per volunteer, per pupil, per hour or per certificate.

  4. Nothing is deleted for non payment.

    Stop paying and you move to the free level with every record intact.

Every organisation is verified before it can contact anyone. Verification is free on every level, and paying does not skip a step.

How verification works

Optional

Be the reason the free level stays free

Posting roles, recruiting and verification cost your organisation nothing. Something else pays for them. An organisation that can spare a little keeps them free for the ones that cannot.

What you get

  • Your supporter badge beside your name, if you want it shown.
  • Your name on the supporters page, if you want it there.
  • A letter each term saying what the money paid for, in numbers.

What it is not

  • It is not a feature. Nothing on Vinspired unlocks because you support it.
  • It is not verification. Verification is free on every level and cannot be bought.
  • It is not earned. Your supporter badge says you chose to give, and it never sits in the awards area beside the badges people earn.

Supporting is for organisations and for people 18 and over. A supporter badge is given, never earned, and it never sits beside the badges and certificates that are. A certificate is the highest thing anyone earns here, and it cannot be bought.

Questions people ask us

Do you charge per volunteer, per pupil or per hour?

No. Nothing is priced per volunteer, per pupil, per hour, per certificate or per export. More people taking part is the point, and your invoice will never rise because it happened.

Is the free level really free, or is it a trial?

It is free and permanent. There is no time limit and no cap on volunteers or students. We say which things it does not include on each card, so you can see what you would be paying for.

How do you verify organisations?

Email verification first, then human approval with a named safeguarding contact. What you can do with messaging depends on how far you have got, never on what you have paid.

Not sure which level fits?

Tell us what you run and we will say plainly which one does, or that free already does it. We would rather hear that than lose you.
