It lets you make a small recurring donation, but bundle it up into bigger payment chunks to save on card processing fees. And it takes no commission itself - everything runs on donations!

EU-based, crowdsourcing, written in Python, multi-language - it's almost perfect for needs of average European.

Unfortunately, they use an U.S.A. based server provider: https://hosting-checker.net/websites/liberapay.com

Easy to use, no comissions, free and open source. And yes, it does accept credit/debit cards - I just done it!

You can wire transfer money to your account once and then pay for a year, so you pay way less bank fees

Finally an open source alternative to support open projects that does not take a "tax" on all the transaction. Keep up the good work!

What is Liberapay?

Liberapay is a way to donate money recurrently to people whose work you appreciate.

Liberapay does not take a cut of payments, recipients get the full face value. The service is funded by the donations to its own account.

What are the differences between Liberapay and other recurrent crowdfunding platforms?

  1. Liberapay is only for donations, meaning that transactions must not be linked to a contract nor a promise of recompense.
  2. Liberapay is an open project structured around a non-profit organization, which sets it apart from commercial platforms like Patreon and Flattr.
  3. We care about internationalization, our service supports multiple currencies and is translated into many languages (you can contribute).
