#### Registration Features Program
> Introduced in GitLab 14.1.
Starting with GitLab version 14.1, free self-managed users running [GitLab EE](../ee_features.md) can receive paid features by registering with GitLab and sending us activity data via [Usage Ping](#what-is-usage-ping).
The paid feature available in this offering is [Email from GitLab](../../tools/email.md).
Administrators can use this [Premium](https://about.gitlab.com/pricing/premium/) feature to streamline
their workflow by emailing all or some instance users directly from the Admin Area.
NOTE:
Registration is not yet required for participation, but will be added in a future milestone.
