The rate card

Pricing that makes sense.

Four plans - Free, Solo, Practice, Studio. Scale storage and team seats as you grow, monthly or annual. No per-client fees. No "contact sales for pricing". No surprise overage bills. Start free, upgrade when you need to, cancel any time.

3 clients free, forever. No credit card - we didn't even bring the card machine.

Which plan is right for you?

A short, honest guide. Pick the plan that fits where you are now - you can always change plans later, and you can cancel any time.

Free is right for you if

  • You want to try Droplana on one real client before paying anything.
  • You're just getting started, with up to three active client relationships.
  • You only need it for occasional, lightweight client work.

The free plan is also our trial - there's no separate paid-plan trial. Use Free for as long as makes sense, upgrade the moment you need a fourth client.

Solo is right for you if

  • You're a freelancer or independent professional working with more than three clients.
  • You're working alone - no team members to add.
  • 50 GB and 1 GB max file size cover your day-to-day work.

Practice is right for you if

  • You're a growing agency, firm, or consultancy with multiple active clients.
  • You have a small team - up to 5 seats, owner included.
  • You need a countersigned DPA and priority support for client-facing compliance work.
  • 250 GB and 2 GB max file size are enough for your work.

Practice is our recommended plan for most service businesses with ongoing client relationships.

Studio is right for you if

  • You do high-volume file work - design, video, or photography - with large source files.
  • You need up to 15 team seats and 1 TB of storage.
  • You want an onboarding setup call to get your team started.

If you're unsure, start with Free for up to three clients, or go straight to Practice if you already know you need a team and ongoing client capacity. Add storage only when you actually approach your limit.

What you don't pay for

The SaaS market has trained everyone to expect surprise costs. We don't do these things.

No per-client fees

Some platforms charge per client portal. We don't. Every paid plan is unlimited clients.

No "contact sales" tier

Our plans are self-serve and publicly priced. If you have unusual needs, email us - we won't make you book a demo to see prices.

No setup fees

Sign up. Use the product. That's it.

No surprise overage bills

Hit your limit and we block the operation, then offer an upgrade link. Existing data is untouched. You choose: upgrade, delete files, or stay where you are.

No long-term contracts

Cancel any time, on monthly or annual billing. After cancellation you keep full access until the end of your billing period, plus a 15-day grace period.

No forced annual lock-in

Annual billing is optional, not required. Choose monthly if you'd rather not commit upfront - switch to annual any time from the billing page.

No delivery fees

Every file ships free, worldwide, in 0 business days. It's the internet - but the promise stands.

Frequently asked questions

Billing and payment

How does billing work?

We use Creem as our Merchant of Record. They handle card processing and tax compliance - VAT for European customers, sales tax for US customers where applicable, equivalent for other jurisdictions. Creem calculates and collects any tax at checkout based on your location.

You'll see Creem (not Droplana) on your card statement.

What payment methods do you accept?

All major credit and debit cards, processed by Creem. Creem also supports a range of alternative payment methods depending on your region.

Are taxes included in the listed price?

Listed prices (€19, €49, €99/mo, plus the €15/mo Storage addon) are exclusive of any applicable taxes. Creem calculates and adds tax based on your location at checkout. EU consumers see VAT added; B2B EU customers with a valid VAT number qualify for the reverse-charge mechanism. US customers in states that levy sales tax on digital services see that added.

Can I pay annually for a discount?

Yes. Every paid plan has a monthly/annual toggle right on the pricing cards above. Annual billing is roughly two months free compared to paying monthly - Solo €190/yr instead of €228, Practice €490/yr instead of €588, Studio €990/yr instead of €1,188. Switch between monthly and annual any time from the billing page.

Do you offer a refund?

Refund requests must be submitted within 14 days of your transaction date and are reviewed by Creem on a case-by-case basis. EU/EEA, Swiss, and UK consumers have a 14-day statutory right to withdraw from eligible digital purchases. To request a refund, use the "View receipt" or "Manage subscription" link in your purchase confirmation email, or visit creem.io and select "Request refund". For details, see the Refund Policy.

Plans and addons

How long are files kept on the Free plan?

Up to 90 days. Solo, Practice, and Studio have no retention limit - files stay until you delete them.

What is the Storage addon?

The Storage addon (€15/mo + tax, €150/yr + tax) adds 500 GB of storage to your plan and raises the maximum file size to 5 GB. It stacks - each addon adds another 500 GB. Available on Solo, Practice, and Studio, added from the billing page after you subscribe.

Can I add multiple storage addons?

Yes. Each Storage addon adds 500 GB on top of your plan's base storage. Add or remove any time from the billing page.

What happens to my files if I remove a storage addon?

Your existing files are never automatically deleted. If removing an addon puts you over your new storage limit, uploads will be blocked until you're back under the limit - but nothing already uploaded is touched.

What happens if I exceed my free-tier client limit?

You'll see an upgrade prompt the moment you try to add a fourth client. We don't auto-charge or auto-upgrade. Your existing data is untouched. You choose: upgrade, delete an existing client, or stay free.

What happens if I exceed my storage?

When an upload would push you past your storage limit, we block the upload and offer an upgrade link. Already-uploaded files stay where they are.

What if a single file is too large?

Max file size is 100 MB on Free, 1 GB on Solo, 2 GB on Practice, and 5 GB on Studio or with a Storage addon. If you need to share something larger, split it or use a temporary tool to deliver the original, then keep the working files in Droplana.

Can I downgrade or cancel?

You can change plans, storage levels, or cancel at any time from the billing page. After cancellation you keep full access until the end of your billing period plus a 15-day grace period. After that the account returns to free-tier limits. If you have more clients than the free tier allows, we keep your three most recently created clients and remove the rest.

Can I upgrade or change plans mid-month?

Yes. Creem pro-rates the difference for the remaining days in your billing cycle when you move to a higher tier, more storage, or from monthly to annual.

Is there a trial for paid plans?

The Free plan is the trial. There's no separate trial period - use Free as long as makes sense and upgrade when you outgrow it.

Is PDF signing included, or is it a paid addon?

Included, on every plan. Type, draw, or upload a signature and sign a PDF right in the portal - no addon, no separate e-signature product. See how PDF signing works.

About clients

Do my clients pay anything?

No. Clients open their own portal. They don't have an account, they don't see pricing, they never get billed. The portal is your tool - they just use it.

How many clients can I have on a paid plan?

Unlimited clients. No per-client fees. The only limit is your overall storage.

Can a client share their portal with their team?

On the Relaxed security level, yes - they can forward their permanent link and there's no per-person account needed. On Controlled or Strict levels, access is tighter: one-time links work once, and in email-only mode only the addresses you have added to that client can get in, each verifying from their own inbox.

Support and service

What support comes with each plan?

All plans include email support - we're a small team, so we respond personally, typically within 24 hours on weekdays. Practice and Studio also get priority support with faster response times, and Studio includes an onboarding setup call.

Is there a phone number?

Not currently. Email is the fastest way to get us.

Can I import data from another tool?

We don't currently offer migration tools. If you have a specific migration need, email us and we'll see what we can do.

About Droplana

What if Droplana shuts down?

If we ever wound down, we'd notify customers well in advance. You can always export all your data as JSON via the Account page - every client, every file's metadata, every comment, every event, every invoice.

Will pricing increase?

We commit to giving existing customers at least 60 days notice of any price changes, and we honor existing prices for current customers for at least 12 months after any change.

Still have questions?

A real person responds, usually within a day on weekdays.
