About the Miro program
The Miro Startup Program provides a one-time credit toward a paid Miro plan. Startups connected to a Miro startup partner (an accelerator, incubator or VC) can receive a $1,000 credit; independent funded startups can apply for a $500 credit, accepted case by case (Miro does not guarantee every independent applicant is approved). Venture-backed companies that need Enterprise can instead apply for 25% off the Enterprise plan via miro.com/startups/scale-offer-vc/.
Partner-connected startups must have fewer than 30 employees, be independently owned and operated, and not be a service provider such as a consultancy or agency. Independent applicants must be funded (verified via Crunchbase) and use a company domain rather than a free email provider. In every case the workspace must not already be on a paid Miro plan: stay on the Free plan and avoid starting trial subscriptions while your application is reviewed, which can take up to 15 days.
One startup is eligible for one credit, the credit must be activated within 6 months of approval, and any purchase above the credit amount is paid out of pocket. An older Miro blog post described stricter criteria (under two years old, less than $5M raised, accelerator-verified); the current help-centre article is the authoritative source.
Once approved you receive a link to the payment page and can choose any plan (Miro recommends Starter); the $1,000 or $500 coupon is applied at checkout and can be spread across seats until the limit is reached, after which your card is charged. Applicants must not be an admin or member of an active, expired or trial paid subscription.
