Prices

 

Individual timestamps

Charges occur when you create a timestamp for a particular computer file or when you timestamp a digital signature. The charge for a single timestamp is 40 cents (USD $ 0.40).   

There is no charge to download the software that you use on your computer. You may download our desktop software application (IP-Protector) or use the developer toolkits (SecureTime API Toolkit) for no charge. You also have the option of using other products that support standard timestamps; for example, Adobe, eLock, etc.


Verifying the authenticity of an existing timestamp or signature is done without accessing our service and therefore, there is never a charge.

Non-profit organizations that are performing medical or environmental public research can use the service at 30 cents (USD $0.30) per timestamp. DigiStamp's founders are scientists themselves.

  • Volume users of the service

  

Volume discounts begin if you use 1000 timestamps in a year, or about 85 timestamps per month. Your account will give you access to both of our Internet-based server locations (Dallas and Chicago). We use redundant, geographically-separated locations to ensure continual access to DigiStamp’s service. Automatic failover between the DigiStamp server locations is built into our software.

+ SecureTime Server
in-house option

 

To use the volume discount, we require that you commit to a minimum 12-month volume. We can provide an evaluation period also. Use the schedule above to calculate your estimated monthly cost. If that cost is less than $100 / month, then we ask you to pay by credit card using the form on this web site at the standard USD $0.40 cents per transaction rate. Then, at the end of each month, we credit your account with your volume discount amount. If your monthly costs are going to be more than $100 / month, then we can invoice your company monthly.

Volume rates include a capacity limit for each user of one request every few seconds. The complete license agreement is here.


SecureTime Server is a hardware unit that you can purchase and install at your site for use within your company (details here).
