Keeper’s subscription tiers are designed with a bitcoiner’s journey in mind. Whether just getting introduced to Bitcoin or planning to bequeath a significant amount, Keeper ensures the journey is intuitive and secure.

Keeper Subscription Tiers

Pleb (Free)

The Pleb tier is ideal for beginners to experience most of Keeper’s features without any cost.

Feature Highlights
At this tier, you can create unlimited single-key wallets and multi-key vaults. You’ll have access to several preset templates, like Collaborative Wallets and 2-of-3 or 3-of-5 multi-keys, making it quick and easy to set up different wallets. You can use the most readily available hardware signers to set up your multi-key wallets, and there’s also a provision to set up non-standard or lesser-known signers using the “Other Signer” option, offering flexibility to use a wider range of hardware for your wallets.

Manage all your keys from a central hub.

Hodler ($10)

The Hodler tier, priced at $10, is designed for users who are familiar with Keeper and seek enhanced security and convenience.

Feature Highlights
This tier unlocks Canary Wallets, which flag the use of a particular key and notify you if an unintended user gains access, allowing you to rotate it out of your multi-key quorums. It also includes the Signing Server, an Assisted Key that automates signing for minor transactions, with the app prompting you to enter a 2FA code for transactions beyond a set range. Additionally, Personal Cloud Backup becomes available, allowing you to backup your vault configuration files. This feature ensures interoperability, so you can create multi-key vaults in Keeper and use them in other apps, providing long-term flexibility.

Setup Canary Wallets for each key to detect unwanted use.

The Diamond Hands tier, priced at $40, is focused on inheritance planning and maximum security.

Feature Highlights
It offers several templates to set up your bitcoin inheritance, plus it unlocks an additional Assisted Key called the Inheritance Key. This key is specifically designed to bolster the security of the vault you plan to bequeath, ensuring that your bitcoin remains safe even after you’re gone. The comprehensive features of this tier make it perfect for those looking to secure their legacy.

Subscription Progression

Starting with the Pleb tier gives you a risk-free way to explore Keeper’s capabilities. As you become more comfortable and start storing significant amounts of bitcoin, upgrading to the Hodler tier provides added security and convenience. Finally, the Diamond Hands tier is perfect for those looking to secure their legacy, with comprehensive inheritance planning tools and top-notch security features. Each tier is thoughtfully designed to support you at every stage of your bitcoin journey.

Summary

Keeper offers a tiered subscription model designed to cater to users at different stages of their bitcoin journey. Starting with the free Pleb tier for basic use, users can progressively upgrade to the $10 Hodler tier and the $40 Diamond Hands tier for enhanced security and specialized features like inheritance planning. This structured approach ensures that Keeper can grow with you, providing the right tools and security features as your needs evolve.
