FounderPass Reviews 

I purchased a $349 lifetime FounderPass membership specifically to access the Attio Startup Program. Before proceeding, I raised concerns that FounderPass’s published eligibility criteria did not appear consistent with Attio’s actual requirements. FounderPass acknowledged that there was a mismatch, told me Attio should be suitable for our company, and explicitly stated that they would refund the membership if our Attio application was not approved.

What followed was an unnecessarily long and frustrating process. FounderPass advised us to identify them as our affiliated startup-program partner, but the application then remained unresolved for weeks. Because we needed the software, we eventually subscribed to Attio directly at full price.

An Attio representative subsequently told us that we had been approved for the Startup Program and would receive the promotional terms. Shortly afterwards, Attio reversed that decision, admitted that the approval had been given incorrectly, and confirmed that our company did not meet the standard requirements. We are a 13-year-old, bootstrapped IT business, not a qualifying startup. Attio offered only a separate 20% courtesy discount instead.

Despite receiving the correspondence showing that the Startup Program approval had been withdrawn, FounderPass refused the refund on the basis that a discount had previously been approved. This ignored both the later reversal by Attio and FounderPass’s own written commitment to refund us if the intended offer was unavailable.

The main issue is not simply that a third-party partner declined an application. It is that FounderPass published inconsistent eligibility information, acknowledged the mismatch, promised a specific resolution, and then relied on a superseded approval to avoid honouring that promise. The process took more than two months, required repeated follow-ups, and ultimately delivered neither the advertised Startup Program offer nor the agreed refund.

Rubbish scam - joined after being advertised a discount for a particular AI plan I need now, but after paying the $99 turns out the discount isn't directly available. Instead have to provide contact details and wait for someone to get back to you

This platform can easily save you hundreds of dollars (at least) within the first year. Some deals might be a bit fiddly to get access too, but the customer service team will help you through it. Recommended!

I have a bootstrapped AI product startup. I came across the accelerators that help efforts like mine. Founderpass' range in the portfolio was impressive as well as affordable. The support team is responsive and quick. I was able to get the necessary infrastructure credits I needed and was able to move forward helping my startup. Certainly will use the services in future.

I've applied for AWS credits and I've succeed. While applying, I strong recommend to use your company email, as well as having a valid product and a well designed website.

Signup for the perks, we are especially interested in AWS credits, $99 is much worth it, we also got digital ocean 5k credit and other stuff. Strongly recommend.

A client of ours actually told us about Founder Pass as we were looking to host their new app on Digital Ocean, so we joined to make use of the $5k of credit, process was relatively quick, got the credit which has helped our client out a lot, will be advising other clients of ours to use them going forward.

Signed up to Founderpass for a couple of the perks, saved about £500 based off two of them alone so well worth the money. There’s a few other perks that we will use in the coming months too. Would recommend to anyone looking for discounts on software

A no-brainer for small businesses, I was able to save a lot more than the subscription cost.

Many deals can be found elsewhere, but even ignoring these, I easily made my money back!

Signed up, tried the first deal, and didn't work. They just send me to a link for webflow deal that was expired and not even a special founderpass deal to begin with.

Tried again after the reply but still doesn't work for me as now I have signed up.

Tried some other deals but most are either not really a deal or only works with some limitation that doesn't work for most.

Finally got one deal that worked for me for Notion

Being in the startup phase, I struggled with identifying the essential tools and software required to drive my business forward. Enter Founders Pass—a game-changer that not only helped me streamline my options but also provided invaluable insights into what's available and how it could benefit my venture. Plus, the savings! For just $99 a year, the premium membership not only opened doors to loads of resources but also saved me $150 through a huge 75% discount on my first year with Brevo. This is a must for any business owner! Saves time and money!

I received $5000 in AWS credits.. which is a huge help to my company. FounderPass Community Support representative, Max, was extremely helpful in the process and walked me through each step. Thank you!

Founders pass provides a very useful of deals. Specifically, AWS compute credits were very useful for me at the start.
