# Support Snare

Free for you. Funded by friends.

Snare is free forever — the user never pays, there is no paid tier, and no feature sits behind a paywall. That is a hard line. But "free" still has a bill: EU servers, storage and the time to keep the tool sharp. If Snare saves you time, here is how you can keep it running.

## Sponsor a feature

Need a specific capability, a higher rate limit, or your logo in a tasteful "sponsored by" slot? Sponsorship from aligned teams is the primary way Snare stays free for everyone. Get in touch and we will scope it together.

## Donate

One-off or recurring donations through GitHub Sponsors, Ko-fi or Open Collective cover the running costs directly. Every bit helps, none of it is required, and it never changes what you get.

## Spread the word

The cheapest and most valuable support is a mention: link Snare from a guide, recommend it to a teammate debugging webhooks, or post about it. Reach is what lets a free tool stay free.

## What your support never buys

It never buys a worse experience for non-payers. No ads, no paywalled features, no selling captured request data — funding only keeps the free tool alive, it never gates it.
