SOMAR VDE Billing & Payments Portal

Built for research teams using the Social Media Archive (SOMAR) Virtual Data Enclave (VDE), this portal makes it easy to handle project billing while you focus on your work. View and download monthly invoices and pay by credit/debit card.

VDE Projects are billed for each month they remain active—meaning the research is still in progress—until you close out the project in the VDE or the project’s Restricted Data Use Agreement (RDUA) and/or IRB approval ends without renewal.
