Ownership

Your site, yours to take — whenever you’re ready.

While you’re subscribed, we own and maintain the code. If you ever want it outright, the buyout hands you the full thing. No drama, no hostage situation.

How it works

It drops every month you stay

Every Tidysite comes with a buyout option from month one. It starts at $3,000 and drops by $85for every month you’ve been subscribed. So the longer you stay, the less it costs to own — and by around year three, it’s nearly free.

When you buy out, we hand over the full code and a deploy guide so you (or any developer) can host it wherever you like. After that, it’s yours. No ongoing fee to us, no permission needed.

Why we do it this way

We’d rather earn the months

Plenty of website services keep you on the hook by making sure you can never leave with anything. We’d rather earn the months. The buyout means you’re never trapped: stay because the service is worth it, not because you can’t get out.
