Is there a cost for using Public Media SSO?

Chris Johnson

There is no cost for adopting and using Public Media SSO. The cost has been funded initially through a 3-year grant to PBS from CPB that covers the licensing, development and support fees for any interested public media entity who wants to use the Public Media SSO. Stations may incur specific costs related to technical implementation of Public Media SSO on their station websites.
