We’ve just celebrated our 11th birthday, and for this occasion we are excited to announce that the “Buy European” trend has really accelerated our growth (even though we think this trend in tech is still more related to deGoogle, than to US- or EU-based companies), particularly when it comes to paying customers. This is amazing to see as people start to understand that “If it’s free, you are the product”.
We are sure that this success is related to communities like yours who are never tired of spreading the word about the need for better privacy, and we are incredibly thankful to you!
Congrats Tuta, Great to see people embrace people-first services. I’ve been getting a lot of messages from different services lately with similar surges, so this really seems to be a massive movement towards better tech recently. Exciting stuff.
Tbh it is unfortunate timing as I had left Tuta for Proton Duo.
Buut, it was indeed most needed at that. And I have no dissatisfaction outside of no proper export import to other providers with the service so congrats, This is sick!
I have been using Tuta and tried to upgrade. I am uncomfortable about making purchases online without a masked payment, won’t use paypal or don’t have cryptocurrency. However, I like Tuta enough that I attempted to use a listed card recently, only to have issues. So I will stay with the free account until it is easier to make payments outside the EU.
Any debit or credit card works with Tuta. Not sure the kind or type of issues you’ve had. But I recommend contacting your bank and Tuta and getting it sorted out.
Changes seem to have been made and I was able upgrade from the free account. Nothing was different from the previous attempts other than it worked. Thank you.
