The Small Business Emergency Subscription Assistance Program (ESAP)
Times are tough. Our small business customers have always stood by us and we want to do our part to stand by them. ESAP gives our severely impacted small business customers access to Zoho software they currently use, free for three months. All Zoho customers with 25 employees or fewer who have been severely impacted by the coronavirus-related downturn may apply. We will grant waivers based on the severity of disruption, industry, and other factors.
Who is the ESAP for?
The program is for Zoho's small business customers with 25 employees or fewer who are being severely impacted by the economic disruption. Small businesses have been key to our success, and this is the time for us to do what we can to pay you back. We plan to help up to 20,000 businesses and organizations worldwide. Before applying, please take a moment and consider if you really need this. If you don't need this program and apply anyway, you will likely be taking from an organization that does.
What products and services does the program cover?
ESAP covers all Zoho applications customers currently use. Certain limits will apply for products priced on usage. The program will not cover Premium and Enterprise support services.

All applicants must apply for the ESAP by using the form below. We will review your application and then decide. Once approved, we will look at your current subscription and grant you Zoho Wallet credits equivalent to three months of your bill. You may then use the Wallet credits at your discretion.
