Individuals can choose either a single or two-year membership.

Members will receive renewal email reminders as early as 60 days before renewal. The OWASP Foundation will do its best to notify members of impending renewals. However, it is the sole responsibility of the Member to monitor their membership status.

Becoming an Individual Member

Individuals can only become members of the OWASP Foundation by completing a Membership Application Form as part of the onboarding process and paying dues, and complying with the following conditions:

• Membership dues are to be paid by the Member and cannot be subsidized or funded by OWASP Projects, Chapters, or Events.
• Applicants must provide their country of residence, postal code, email address, name, and billing information. These details are subject to GDPR privacy protections, and the Foundation will not share private information without consent.
• Members are not attached to any particular Chapter or Project but are at-large members by submitting the Membership Form.
• Applicants consent to receive communications from the OWASP Foundation concerning membership status.
• Only qualifying individuals will be eligible for Complimentary, Regional, and Student Memberships.
• Once paid, Membership Dues are not prorated, nor can they be canceled once purchased.

The OWASP Foundation is the exclusive grantor of OWASP Memberships. No person or entity can act as a membership agent or grant Distinguished Lifetime Membership or Complimentary Memberships except for the OWASP Board of Directors.

The Foundation will revoke fraudulent membership submissions without notice and no refund. Memberships and member benefits are not transferrable.
