What the GitHub startup program is
GitHub is the default home for code collaboration, and its enterprise tier layers on Copilot, Advanced Security, and CI/CD through Actions. GitHub for Startups grants flexible platform credits that can be spent across GitHub Enterprise, Copilot, Actions minutes, and security features, plus tailored onboarding and access to a global community of tens of thousands of startups.

Who the GitHub perk is for
Perkstack has not pinned this listing to a single funding stage, which usually means the provider judges applicants on product and company age rather than on how much you have raised. Access is partner routed: an investor, accelerator or cloud partner has to put you forward, so the introduction matters as much as meeting the criteria. We rate the realistic chance of approval for an eligible team as low.
What the GitHub perk is worth
Perkstack estimates this listing at about $10K. Every figure on the site is an estimate of what the credit or benefit is realistically worth to an early stage company, not a quote and not a guarantee of the tier you will be offered. Providers routinely run several tiers, so treat this as the ceiling to aim at and check the program page for the current numbers.
What the listing includes
- The eligibility conditions for GitHub, written out from the provider's own terms
- The direct apply link, so you are not guessing which of the provider's five pages is the real form
- Straight through to the provider: this listing has no written guide yet, so you get the verified conditions and the direct link
- The same treatment on 234 other perks, each with a last verified date
How this listing is verified
A human last opened GitHub (Microsoft)'s own program page and confirmed this offer on Aug 5, 2026. Credit programs change quietly: tiers get cut, forms move behind partner referrals, and dead programs stay published for months. Perkstack rechecks listings and marks the ones that expire or change their terms, so the date above is the date the offer was confirmed rather than the date the page was written.
