Frequently asked questions

Is ZTerm really free?

Yes. The core app — unlimited SSH connections, the integrated terminal, dual-pane SFTP, and local credential storage — is free forever and works with no account. Pro and Team add automation, monitoring, and collaboration on top.

Do I need an account?

Not for Free. Everything stays local on your machine. You only create an account if you want Pro/Team features like encrypted settings sync and shared team resources.

Where are my credentials stored?

In your operating system's secure credential store — Windows Credential Manager or macOS Keychain. Keys and passwords are never sent to our servers or stored in plain text.

Can I switch plans anytime?

Yes. Upgrade, downgrade, or cancel at any time. When you switch to annual billing, the remaining time on your current period is prorated automatically.

Is there a discount for students or open source?

Yes — verified students and active open-source maintainers get Pro for free. Reach out from your school or project email and we'll set you up.

What payment methods do you accept?

All major credit and debit cards for Pro and Team. Team customers can also pay by invoice with annual billing.
