      Simple pricing

      FairTools is built to be cheaper than the “$15/month just to merge PDFs” schemes. Everything runs directly in your browser — no uploads, no accounts.

      • Free: Merge, Split, Compress, Sign, Edit & Protect with light usage.
      • $2 Day Pass: Unlock full limits for 24 hours.
      • $5/month Full Access: Unlimited use of all tools, ongoing updates, priority features.

      Billing & cancellation

      All payments are processed securely by Stripe. After checkout, Stripe emails you a receipt containing a “Manage billing” link where you can update your payment method or cancel anytime.

      If we later add a direct subscription-management button inside FairTools, it will appear here.

      Why privacy-first tools?

      Most “free” PDF sites upload your documents to their servers, log your IP, set tracking cookies, and sometimes keep your files longer than you’d think.

      FairTools runs everything in your browser using JavaScript libraries. Your PDFs stay on your device. We don’t see them, we don’t want them.
