Eligibility
- Must be a brand-new Zendesk subscriber; company must be under 10 years old; no more than Series B in funding; fewer than 50 employees if applying without a Zendesk partner referral. Zendesk also describes the program as supporting bootstrapped through Series B startups, although its current landing-page fine print references outside funding, so final eligibility is subject to Zendesk approval.
