Last Updated: October 18 2025
Why Become a Sponsor?
- High-Visibility Placement: Your custom icon appears on the login page and every game page, linked to a hoverable label with your brand name.
- Community Prestige: Sponsors are public for events and games.
- Flexible Recognition: Prefer to remain anonymous? We respect that, simply opt-out of public credit.
Where Your Dollars Go
Transparency is non-negotiable for us. Below is our estimated monthly operating budget, no mystery.
| Expense Item | Purpose | Monthly Cost (USD) |
|---|---|---|
| Hosting Infrastructure | High-performance Virtual Private Servers (VPS) for cloud hosting. | ~$30 |
| Virtual Business Address | Privacy-preserving mailing address for legal notices | ~$30 |
| LLC Administration | Administrative costs for LLC operation and registrations. | ~$30 |
| Domain Portfolio | Primary domain plus defensive registrations | ~$10 |
| Transactional Email | DKIM-signed messages for account support | ~$5 |
| Total Estimated Operating Requirement | $100 | |
Your Contribution Goes Further
Once the baseline $100/month is covered, surplus funds are allocated to:
- Community Events: Challenge-coin minting, advertising, and prize pools for special cracking events.
- Cybersecurity-Conference Sponsorship: Giving back to the broader infosec ecosystem by funding community events, CTFs, and trainings.
Every extra dollar accelerates hands-on learning opportunities and expands the reach of open, ethical security research.
Ready to Team Up?
We welcome individuals, organizations, and corporations. Contributions start at $20 per month and may be cancelled any time.
Public Recognition
If you choose public credit, supply a username, handle, or organization name and an optional 75 × 75 px square logo. We reserve the right to decline or remove imagery that conflicts with our community standards, or upon sponsorship expiry. Anonymity remains a fully-supported option.
Sponsors are listed on the login page and on every game page, with a hoverable label for your brand name or handle. If a logo is not provided, but public credit is desired, we will display a default icon with the desired name.
Brand-Safety Clause
Hashcracky retains final editorial approval over sponsor visuals. This protects both parties from unintended brand conflicts and ensures an inclusive environment for all players.
