VolunteerEvery plan runs your village on its own site, with its own address, data and payments. You're not paying for how it looks — you're paying for what it does.
Four bands, so a hamlet is never quoted a town's price. Tell us roughly how many people your community serves and we'll do the rest.
Each plan is cumulative: everything in the one below it, plus what's listed. Step up whenever your committee is ready — nothing has to be decided now, and nothing is locked in.
A one-off onboarding & setup builds your first version from your existing content. Help winning grants comes with every plan, so grants can fund your platform. Every amount — subscription and setup — is confirmed in writing on your proposal.
What Village1st does was built over years alongside a real committee, and it isn't something we hand to the internet. Villages see the whole working platform — the real one, with a real village running on it — on a call with us. It's a better way to judge it than a list of names, and it means the communities who have paid for this work keep the advantage of it.
Ask for a walkthroughA 300-person hamlet and a 9,000-person town shouldn't be quoted the same — every plan is scaled to your community's size band.
Start on Starter to get online; step up to Growth for engagement, Complete for funding & projects — whenever it suits.
Community payments settle to your own entity via your own merchant. We're never in the money flow, and never take a cut of donations.
Every village inherits everything already built and proven at the flagship — the more villages join, the better it gets.
A short, no-obligation conversation: your size, the modules you'd switch on first, and a written proposal with every number in it. No pressure, no lock-in.
