The other person \"seals\" a secret into it in their browser; only you, the owner, can unseal it. Free vaults are kept up to 7 days (up to 10 vaults); Personal (€39 a year) keeps them with no time limit.\n\n**CredenShare** collects credentials with Secure Requests, forms with the fields you choose, encrypted in the submitter's browser. It also sends credentials through expiring links with an access log.\n\n## Where is your secret encrypted?\n\n- **Vaulty** encrypts in the browser with the vault's public key; the private key \"lives only in the browser\" of the owner.\n- **CredenShare Secure Requests** encrypt each answer in the submitter's browser to a key belonging to the request.\n\n- **CredenShare:** Shares created in the web app, through the API or with the SDKs are encrypted in your browser or client with AES-256-GCM, using a key made for that share alone; the key travels in the part of the link after the `#`, which browsers don't send to servers. Shares created from Slack are the exception: they're encrypted on our servers.\n\n## CredenShare and Vaulty side by side\n\n| | CredenShare | Vaulty |\n|---|---|---|\n| **Built for** | Sending and collecting credentials | Collecting secrets from people |\n| **Where content is encrypted** | In the browser (Slack shares: on our servers) | In the browser, with the vault's public key |\n| **Structured fields** | Yes: custom fields and reusable templates | Not described |\n| **Submitter sign-in** | Optional, with two-factor authentication | Not described; anyone with the link can seal |\n| **Retention** | You choose expiry; submissions expire on your settings | Free: up to 7 days; Personal: no time limit |\n| **Sending credentials too** | Yes, with an access log | No |\n| **Teams and integrations** | Teams, Slack, API, SDKs, MCP server | Not described |\n| **Price** | Secure Requests on Business ($99.99/month) | Free (up to 10 vaults); Personal €39/year |\n\n*Vaulty details checked on October 23, 2026 against its own pages; see the sources below.*\n\n## What does CredenShare add?\n\n### Forms, not just a box\n\nSecure Requests ask for exactly the fields you need (\"Registrar\", \"Username\", \"Password\", \"Recovery codes\"), with templates you reuse across clients.\n\n### Who can submit\n\nRequire the submitter to **sign in with two-factor authentication**, so only the person you intend can answer.\n\n### Both directions\n\nThe same account **sends** credentials through expiring links, with passcodes and an access log for every view.\n\n### Teams and integrations\n\nTeams share an allowance, with optional zero-knowledge custody (Business and Enterprise). Create shares from **Slack** (Plus and above), a **browser extension** for Chrome and Firefox, or code: a **REST API, SDKs for Node, Python, Go and Rust, an MCP server** for AI agents, and **webhooks**.\n\n## What does each cost?\n\n**Vaulty**: free for up to 10 vaults; Personal €39 a year. CredenShare: **Free** (3 shares a day); **Solo** $9.99/month (passcodes, access logs); **Plus** $49.99/month (5 seats, teams, Slack); **Business** $99.99/month (Secure Requests, API, IP allowlists). Yearly billing: $99.99, $499.99 and $999.99. See [pricing](/pricing).\n\n## Which should you use?\n\n| Situation | Better fit | Why |\n|---|---|---|\n| A freelancer occasionally collects a password | Vaulty | Free, or €39 a year. |\n| An agency collects the same set of logins from every new client | CredenShare | Field templates. |\n| Only the client contact may submit | CredenShare | Required sign-in with 2FA. |\n| You also send credentials back to clients | CredenShare | Shares with access logs. |\n\n## What to ask any secret-sharing tool before you trust it\n\n1. **Where is the secret encrypted?** In your browser, or on the provider's servers after it arrives? Browser-side encryption means the provider never holds a readable copy.\n2. **Who holds the key?** If it's in the link (after the `#`), the server can't decrypt without the link. If it's on the server, the provider can.\n3. **What happens to link previews?** Email and chat scanners can open links. Can you allow two views, or start the clock at the first open?\n4. **Can you prove it arrived?** Is there a record of each view, with a time and an IP address?\n5. **How long is data kept after expiry?** What is deleted, and what metadata remains?\n6. **Can people send secrets to you?** Without a request feature, credentials still arrive by email.\n7. **Where is it hosted, and can you self-host?** That matters for data-residency rules.\n8. **Who on your team can see what?** Admin visibility, team ownership, and what happens when someone leaves.\n\n## How do you switch from Vaulty to CredenShare?\n\nThere's nothing to migrate: sharing links are short-lived by design.\n\n1. Create a CredenShare account. The Free plan covers 3 shares a day.\n2. Send your next credential with CredenShare: fill in the fields, set an expiry and a view limit, and add a passcode on a paid plan.\n3. Invite your team (Basic and above), and add the Slack app, browser extension or SDKs you'll use.\n4. Replace \"send me your password\" emails with Secure Requests (Business and Enterprise).\n5. Let existing Vaulty links expire on their own.\n\n## Where Vaulty is the better choice\n\n- **Low price** for collecting only.\n- **Vaults with no time limit** on Personal.\n- **Very simple:** one link, one box.\n\n## Before you share a credential: a checklist\n\nThese apply whichever tool you use.\n\n1. **Send the link and the passcode through different channels.** For example, the link by email and the passcode by text message.\n2. **Watch out for link scanners.** Some email security filters and chat apps open links automatically, which can use up a one-view link. Send the link as plain text through a channel that doesn't pre-open links, or allow a second view with a short expiry.\n3. **Don't open the link to test it.** On a one-view link, your test is the view.\n4. **Pick the shortest expiry that works.** If you don't know when the recipient will act, a link that starts counting at the first open is safer than a long fixed window.\n5. **Rotate after the handoff when you can.** The link expires, but the credential is still valid.\n6. **Keep the original in your password manager.** A sharing link is a delivery method, not storage.\n\n## Verdict\n\nVaulty is a simple, inexpensive way to collect secrets. CredenShare suits teams that collect structured credentials repeatedly, need to control who can submit, and send credentials too.\n\n**Related:** [CredenShare vs Content Snare](/compare/content-snare) · [CredenShare vs Password.link](/compare/password-link) · [All comparisons](/compare)\n\n---\n\n**Sources** (checked October 23, 2026):\n\n- **Vaulty:** [home](https://vaulty.tools/), [FAQ](https://vaulty.tools/faq/), [pricing](https://vaulty.tools/pricing/), [requesting credentials](https://vaulty.tools/articles/request-credentials-securely-from-clients/)\n- **CredenShare:** [encryption](https://docs.credenshare.io/security/encryption), [plans and limits](https://docs.credenshare.io/account/plans-and-limits)\n\n*Vaulty is a trademark of its owner.
