Licensing and payment

How much does Keepsake cost and how do I pay?

The free tier never expires and covers 25 documents per device with full encryption, OCR and reminders. Premium is 19 pounds a year, Family 29 for six members, Teams 79 per ten seats. Payment is by invoice and bank transfer; you receive a signed Ed25519 licence key by email that activates offline. There is no account, subscription processor or activation server.

The free tier

25 documents per device with full encryption, OCR filing, search, reminders and the Recovery Kit. No account, no time limit, no card. Secure Send is included at 3 sends per month.

The paid plans

| Plan | Price | Covers | |---|---|---| | Premium | £19 / year (intro) | One person, unlimited documents, every device they own | | Family | £29 / year | Up to 6 members plus the shared Family Vault | | Teams | £79 / year | 10 seats, shared team vault, PDF invoice for your books |

All prices are in pounds sterling. Full details on the pricing page.

Buying a licence

  1. Fill the short form on the upgrade page — name, email, plan.
  2. Within a business day you receive a PDF invoice with bank transfer details (IBAN / Wise).
  3. When the payment lands, your license key arrives by email — usually within a business day.
  4. Paste the key into any app: Settings → License. It activates instantly, offline.

You can get a full refund any time before your key is emailed. Once the key is sent the sale is final, because an offline license activates on your device and cannot be cancelled or revoked — so try the never-expiring free tier first. See the refund policy.

How the key works

The key is a short signed text (Ed25519). The apps verify the signature with a built-in public key — no activation server, no phoning home. One key covers all devices belonging to the licensed person (or household, on Family).

When the year ends

Nothing locks. You can always read, decrypt and export every document. Premium conveniences (sync, unlimited documents, Travel Mode…) politely degrade until you renew.

Lost your key?

Email us from the address on your invoice and we re-send it. The license record — email, plan, expiry — is the only thing we store about you.
