How to become a Patron
Subscribing to Decode This
Here at Decode This we've always been proud of the service we offer to the automotive community. Since our inception we've provided the free decoding of over 14 million VINs of both modern and classic cars.
Decode This currently supports thousands of users a day. We're looking to expand upon the services we offer and we'd love your help.
Patron Subscription
As a way of supporting the good work we do we offer a subscription plan called "Patron". As a patron of Decode This you'll support the VIN decoding services that we currently provide, but also allow us to grow and offer even more features to the community.
As a Patron you also get certain perks, such as:
- No Ads, ever! Ads are disabled when you're logged in.
- Unlimited decode history. See a list of all the vehicles you've decoded in the past.
- Full recall information. Normally we limit the recall data for a vehicle to 2 recalls. As a Patron we'll show you all the recalls NHTSA is reporting.
- Add notes to a decode either publicly (visible to everyone) or privately (visible only to yourself).
- The green banner at the top of the page goes away! :)
We'll be adding even more features to the Patron level as time goes on. We appreciate your support and promise to make the best use of your support that we can. Your subscription is $19 a month, and can be canceled at any time.
Resources like Decode This are rare. Please help us continue to offer our services to the community by making a pledge of support through subscribing. You can make a difference and help us continue as the premiere community VIN decoding site on the net!
To be a Patron is simple: Create an account on Decode This and then become a subscriber!
Thanks again for all your support.
