Sponsoring WinSCP Release
If you represent a company, you may still donate, or you may consider to become a release sponsor. As a release sponsor, you will have an opportunity to promote your product or service during WinSCP installation process. Note, that we explicitly do not mean bundling and installing another software during WinSCP installation.
Release sponsor provides a picture to be shown during WinSCP installation and a landing page URL to get more information about the release sponsor in English. We will display this picture to all users installing WinSCP, who have internet access during installation and have chosen their installation language to be English. The picture will be shown in the Installer, after a successful WinSCP installation. Below the picture there will a link to get more information about the sponsor, linking to the URL you have provided. The user will have option to close installation without clicking any links.
Optionally, release sponsor may decide to support also other languages.
Usually, the release sponsorship has form of a fixed payment, payable at the beginning of month during the period of sponsoring.
