Free Forever

Defiant is free.
Always will be.

No paywalls, no locked features, no premium tier — every module is available to everyone. If Defiant saves you time and you want to keep development going, support is the way. There are no perks, no early access, no supporter-only features. Just a thank-you and the satisfaction of keeping the project alive.

Defiant
Why Support?

It keeps Defiant alive.

Forge of Empires updates regularly, and every update can break automation. Support pays for the time it takes to keep Defiant working, fix bugs quickly, and ship new modules.

🛠

Constant maintenance

Game updates can break modules without warning. Support keeps the fixes coming fast.

New modules

More automation, more guardrails, smarter routines — funded directly by people who use it.

💬

No ads, no telemetry

Defiant collects nothing and sells nothing. Support is the only revenue stream, and it stays that way.

🤝

Truly optional

Defiant works the same whether you support or not. The bot doesn't know who paid and who didn't.

Support

Pay what you want, when you want.

One-time only, processed by Stripe. Pick any amount that feels right. You won't get anything in return except this paragraph thanking you.

💚

Thank you, genuinely.

No tiers, no badges, no Discord roles, no early access, no perks. Every supporter gets the same thing: my honest thanks and a project that stays maintained because of people like you.

Support via Stripe

Secure checkout via Stripe. Card details never touch this site.

FAQ

About supporting Defiant.

Will the bot ever stop being free?
No. The plan is free forever. Support is voluntary and never unlocks bot features.
Do supporters get any perks at all?
No. No badges, no roles, no beta access, no priority queue, no name in credits — none of it. The intent is simple: if you find Defiant useful and want to chip in, you can. That's the entire offer.
Why no perks? Wouldn't tiers raise more money?
Probably. But adding perks turns a tip jar into a transaction, and a transaction creates expectations and obligations on both sides. Keeping it perk-free keeps it simple — you're supporting the project, not buying a thing.
Is it monthly or one-time?
One-time. Pay any amount, whenever you want. There's no subscription, nothing to cancel, nothing to manage.
How is the payment processed?
Through Stripe. Card details are entered on Stripe's checkout page and never touch this site. Stripe handles the receipt and any refunds.
Is the bot tied to my support somehow?
No. Defiant has no account system, no licensing, no telemetry. There is no way for the bot to know whether you've supported the project — and that's intentional.

Or just tell a guildmate.

Word of mouth helps Defiant as much as a few dollars does. If it works for you, pass it on.
