How do I get a free DataCamp subscription?
Thank you for your interest in DataCamp! We have decided to partner with community development organizations on this DataCamp Donates to ensure our free subscriptions go to people who need them the most and cannot afford them.

We have many more partnerships in the works. If you are a member of an organization that could benefit from this offer, please email donate@datacamp.com.
Who determines who gets a subscription, and how?
We do not have the resources to vet hundreds of thousands of applications, so we’ve partnered with nonprofit organizations that know their local communities best. We are also looking to partner with governmental social welfare agencies. These public and private organizations have already screened their members through the application processes, so they know all about their members’ financial and social situations. That’s why we can trust them to disseminate these subscriptions fairly.
To ensure these free subscriptions are going to the people who need them most, we have instructed our partners to give them to individuals who meet one or more of the following criteria:
- Currently unemployed or underemployed
- Looking for a new job or career
- Living below the federal poverty line
- Have been otherwise negatively impacted by COVID-19
We have included the final criterion in an effort to account for these unprecedented times. Everyone has been affected by COVID-19 in some way, but the impact varies significantly from person to person, with some experiencing unthinkable hardships. This approach will allow our partners to flex their judgment and compassion to help out as many people as possible with this DataCamp Donates.
Additionally, select instructors and administrators of some of the organizations will also receive subscriptions. Admins will use their licenses to support and track the progress of their new DataCamp learners so they can take full advantage of our platform.
Lastly, all of our DataCamp Donates recipients must not pay our partner organizations anything for their services and, by extension, free Premium access to DataCamp for one year.
What does DataCamp get in return for its donations?
These are true donations. Our partner organizations and their members pay us nothing for their Premium DataCamp subscriptions, normally valued at $399 USD each. By offering aid in the form of education services instead of monetary contributions, we’re also eschewing tax breaks, the traditional upside of corporate philanthropy. DataCamp receives no write-offs or direct fiduciary benefits from donating subscriptions whatsoever. The only thing we request of our nonprofit partners is an ongoing dialogue about their members’ successes using the platform.
I already pay for a DataCamp Premium subscription and I just received an offer for a free one through an organization. Can I still redeem the free one-year Premium subscription?
This will be addressed on a case-by-case basis. If you are already a DataCamp subscriber and are offered a free subscription through an organization, reach out to our Support Team at support@datacamp.com to find out what your options are. Redemption options will vary based on your current subscription and the organization partnering with DataCamp to give you the free subscription.
I still have questions or feedback about the donation initiative. Who should I contact?
Please contact us by sending an email to donate@datacamp.com. We read every email and value your input greatly.
