Supporter perks
Project Airports is free to play - the free game is the whole game. Supporter is a one-time, pay-what-you-want contribution that funds servers and development, and from $25 it unlocks a permanent kit of in-sim perks.
What Supporter is
Head to /supporter and pick any amount from $1 to $5,000 (presets at $5, $25, and $50), paid via Stripe or PayPal. It even works without an account - perks attach to your email and land when you sign up.
Any amount
Every contribution, whatever the size, earns the Supporter role on the community Discord. Link your Discord account and the role follows.
The $25 kit
At $25 and above, the full in-sim kit unlocks permanently:
| Perk | What you get |
|---|---|
| Aeros grant | Ⓐ25,000 one-time |
| Double object slots | ×2 at every airport level - 20 / 50 / 100 on current levels |
| Free landmarks | Two, lifetime, at any price - including the uncapped world icons |
| Supporters Kit decor shelf | Air-racing challenge gates and the live airport-stats sign |
| Livery Workshop | Paint and publish up to 10 A320-family liveries for the community catalogue |
| Build-queue priority | Your builds are claimed before standard ones |
| Raised daily earn cap | Ⓐ2,500 /day instead of Ⓐ1,000 /day |
The Livery Workshop at /portal/workshopopens straight into a 3D paint booth: a hangar staged at your own airport, your runway out the door, and a clean white A320-family jet in front of you. Paint it right on the aircraft with part fills, an airline sticker library, text, and your own uploaded images. Every design is screened before it ships, then it appears in your builder catalogue and the community catalogue as a paint option anyone can place, priced the same as the airframe's other paints, and syncs to every player's sim automatically. Supporters can keep up to 10 liveries.
Why it works this way
Nothing in the kit is gameplay you can't reach for free - everything else in the manual, from claiming land to landmarks, is earnable with Aeros from flying. Supporting simply lets you go big faster, and it keeps the servers and the development moving. If the project has earned a coffee from you, this is the tip jar.
