Apply with your Collective

You're creating software. You don't want to worry about creating a legal entity or bank account, taxes, invoices, and a bunch of other admin. Let us take care of all that, so you can stay focused on your project.

We have created the Open Source Collective, a non-profit umbrella organization, to serve the open source community. To join, you need to meet our verification criteria.

Fees: 10% of funds raised.

Our fees cover operating costs like accounting, payments, tax reporting, invoices, legal liability, use of the Open Collective Platform, and providing support. We also run a range of initiatives to support a sustainable and healthy open source ecosystem. Join us!
