Purchasing Space on tDAR

Do not worry, you can always add more to your account at a later date. However, the more space you buy at once, the lower the cost per file.

Vouchers

If you have received a voucher code (for example, as part of your SAA Student Membership) enter it in the "Redeem Code" field. It will be applied to your invoice.

Stay on this Page!

tDAR uses an external payment gateway through Arizona State University called NelNet. Please use the NelNet forms to complete your tDAR payment.

Keep this window open. When your payment process is complete, it will automatically take you to the page where you can manage your billing account. (See What Next?, below.)

What Next?

Once your payment has been processed, you will receive a confirmation email from ASU. The previous page you were on in tDAR will automatically take you to where you can either add the space you just bought by adding the invoice to an existing account or begin setting up and managing a new account.

What happens if I forget to add an invoice to an account?

If you have one billing account already, tDAR will automatically add the invoice you just created to your existing account.

If you do not have a billing account, or have multiple billing accounts, tDAR will generate an additional or new account for the invoice. You will still have access to the space your purchased.
