What is the difference between "validated", "qualified", and "eligible"?

"Validated" or "Qualified"

Your organization is considered validated, also referred to as qualified, when TechSoup has verified your organization's information and nonprofit status.

You can check your organization's qualification status in your TechSoup account: click you organization's name to view it's details.

Eligibility for Nonprofit Programs

While an organization's nonprofit status is validated by TechSoup, this does not mean they are eligible for every nonprofit program TechSoup supports and facilitates in our catalog and validation tokens.

Eligibility for offers is determined by the provider in accordance with their philanthropic goals and may vary according to organization information such as size, budget, location, or mission. Being ineligible for an offer is not a comment on an organization’s mission or services.
