Expense policies
Expense policies
We process expenses twice a week after an admin of the Collective has approved them. We make payments via PayPal and Bank Transfer (using Wise) and can only make payouts to countries served by these payment processors. You are not required to upload an invoice document (the data you submit in the expense form is sufficient), but if you would like to include an uploaded invoice, please make it out to:
Collective Name, Open Source Collective, 440 N. Barranca Avenue #3939, Covina, CA 91723, USA
INFORMATION REQUIRED ON EXPENSES:
Please refer to the documentation here for payment processing requirements on reimbursements and invoices.
REFUNDS:
If you would like a refund, please email [email protected] with the transaction #, the collective you donated to, the date, and the amount of the transaction.
Anyone can file an expense, but should agree this with the Testcontainers core team before incurring any costs. If the expense makes sense for the development of the community, it will be “merged” in the ledger of our open collective by the Testcontainers core team and the person who filed the expense will be reimbursed.
Money will first be used to cover direct project costs:
- Bug bounties
- Website hosting
- Tooling, such as CI infrastructure
- Legal protection
Then, money will be used to:
- Pay for project expenses (e.g. ‘swag’, stickers, T-shirts, etc).
- Pay expenses for core maintainers’ travel to present at conferences and meetups, if not reimbursable by the conference/meetup or employers.
- Pay expenses for developer gatherings: travel expenses for core maintainer meetings
- Pay core maintainers for time expended on key project engineering activities, e.g. release engineering, project housekeeping, expedited PR review for bug-bountied tickets.
Who can approve expenses (the ‘Testcontainers core team’)?
This list is likely to change over time, but is currently Richard North, Sergei Egorov and Kevin Wittek.
