Independent media. An open internet.

FediPass

Your pass to freedom.

"All media, one pass": that is the idea behind FediPass. A simple, one-click contribution to support independent media on the open internet.

How FediPass works

A project in development · Current project status

Your data stays separate

With a monthly contribution of your choice, you support the services that matter to you. We protect your privacy by separating responsibilities: FediPass manages your pass and distribution, FediPay handles billing, and FediID handles sign-in. Your usage behaviour is not passed to the payment service.

How we protect your data technically

How it works

  1. Connect your account. Start with your Fediverse account through FediID.
  2. Choose your contribution. Choose your pass and manage participation in FediPass. Manage billing details and payments in FediPay.
  3. See what you support. Review the distribution and your plan's choices in FediPass.

Support what matters to you

Independent journalism, creative work and online communities also need reliable financial support. FediPass brings that support together, making it simpler for you and encouraging more people to support the Fediverse and its content providers.

Instead of paying for many separate subscriptions or donation accounts, you make one monthly contribution to support your server and your favourite content. Your FediPass also supports the infrastructure of the Fediverse itself. Our aim is to give journalists, developers and other creative people a reliable, independent source of income.

Why we are building this

Three services, one shared sign-in.

Three services, one shared sign-in. Sounds complicated? It is for us, but we want it to be as simple as possible for you. Sign in here and you will normally be taken between the services without having to sign in to each one again. Their different colours and logos show where you are and which service is doing what.

Your first questions

All background articles
What is the Fediverse?

A network of independent social services that can communicate with one another. Mastodon is one example.

Do I need a new social media account?

Use your existing Fediverse account. FediID handles sign-in to the connected services.

Do I decide where my money goes?

Yes. You can choose between different plans. Your settings and permitted interactions help determine where your money goes. Which weights and shares you can change depends on your plan.
