If you use REST framework commercially we strongly encourage you to invest in its continued development by signing up for a paid plan.
**We believe that collaboratively funded software can offer outstanding returns on investment, by allowing users and clients to collectively share the cost of development.**
Signing up for a paid plan will:
* Directly contribute to faster releases, more features and higher quality software.
* Allow more time to be invested in documentation, issue triage and community support.
* Safeguard the future development of REST framework.

## Individual plan
This subscription is recommended for freelancers and other individuals with an interest in seeing REST framework continue to improve. Billing is monthly and you can cancel at any time.
If you are using REST framework as an full-time employee, consider recommending that your company takes out a [corporate plan](#corporate-plans).
These subscriptions are recommended for companies and organizations using REST framework either publicly or privately.
In exchange for funding you'll also receive advertising space on our site, allowing you to **promote your company or product to many tens of thousands of developers worldwide**.
Our professional and premium plans also include **priority support**. At any time your engineers can escalate an issue or discussion group thread, and we'll ensure it gets a guaranteed response on the next available project day.
