Applications are read by hand, one at a time, and that takes as long as it takes. Waiting is free and always will be. If you would rather not, $5 approves your account immediately and it stays approved for good - a one-off payment, not a subscription - and it includes your first 30 days of unlimited traffic.

• Approved straight away, instead of waiting for a manual review.
• Priority on the mirror and faster download speeds.
• 30 days of unlimited traffic per $5, on top of the standard weekly allowance.
• Your access stays yours permanently, even after the traffic window runs out.

Which account is this for?

The address you applied with. A purchase is applied to that account; a donation just needs somewhere to attribute it.

Card and PayPal are both accepted on the checkout page.

Every $5 buys 30 days and they stack, so $10 is 60 days and $20 is 120 days. Pay an amount that is not a clean multiple and you get the days it covers, with the remainder counted as a donation: $12 is 60 days plus a $2 donation.

A donation unlocks nothing and adds no traffic. It is genuinely appreciated and never expected. Anything under $5 is treated as one automatically.

This is not a business. Money that comes in goes at the bills that keep it up: disks to store it all, the internet line to serve it, and the big one, the power to keep the array spinning, which runs close to $400 a month on its own.
