Supporting Denomas Community Programs
Denomas offers several programs to help introduce Denomas’ most powerful features to communities who may not otherwise have the means to access them. These include:
The Community Programs team is the DRI for these programs.
For registered non-profit organizations, Denomas also offers discounts. Contact Denomas’ Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) team for more information regarding this program.
Use the relevant workflows below when you receive a ticket about Denomas for Education, Denomas for Open Source or Denomas for Startups.
Note: Program members receive only limited support with subscriptions granted through community programs. They are able to open a support ticket via the Denomas Support Portal only for errors involving the Community Self-checkout Portal on CustomersDOT or for errors relating to their subscription. Internal escalations for all three of the programs can be made via Slack channel #community-programs.

Product Transfer
While redeeming a community program coupon customers may select the wrong product type by accident (SaaS instead of Self-Managed, or vice-versa).
In this case, please direct customers to contact the appropriate inbox under the ‘Program-specific contact inboxes’ section
Example Tickets
Organisation not appearing in SheerID list
Please direct customers to contact the appropriate inbox under the ‘Program-specific contact inboxes’ section.
If after several days the customer reports they have not heard back from the Community Programs team, please reassure them and raise the ticket in #community-programs (ideally providing the email address the customer contacted the team with).
Example Tickets
“This code has already been used.” error when attempting to redeem coupon
Please raise the ticket in #community-programs as the coupon may have been erroneously issued.
Example Tickets
Customer is concerned by their seat usage or true-ups
While applying, customers are asked to provide their desired seat count - during their subscription term they can exceed this and then upon renewal the true-up cost will be zero (and the overage seats will be added to the renewal term).
