Tax exemption

At this time, our billing processor cannot remove tax before charging you. If your organization is tax-exempt, you can request a refund after making your purchase.

3In the subject line, write Tax Exempt - Seeking Tax Refund

4In the email body, include your invoice number and attach your tax exemption documents

 

We will follow up with our billing processor and let you know once the refund has been processed.

Note: You currently need to complete this process each time you make a purchase, including renewals and plan upgrades.

 

Previously paying account

If your organization is already on a paid monday.com plan and has been approved for the Nonprofit Program, there are a few additional steps to complete the switch.

After approval, you'll receive an email confirming that your organization is eligible and asking for your consent to move the account to the nonprofit plan:

Note: If you do not see the email, check your spam or junk folder, or search for nonprofits@monday.com in your inbox.

 

To continue, contact our support team here and confirm that you consent to cancel your current paid plan and move to the nonprofit plan. This change will not affect your account data.

Once your request is processed, your account will be moved to the Nonprofit Pro plan, which includes 10 free seats. If your account qualifies for a refund, it will be issued according to the refund policy.

If your account has more than 10 users, you can purchase additional seats at a 70% discounted rate from the admin section of your account. We’ve included instructions for that later in this article.
