Like most other voluntary open source projects, OpenLP has no income and is
|
|
entirely funded by the personal funds of the developers. We have a number of
|
|
fixed costs, like server hosting, domain names, and the like. If you'd like to
|
|
help us out, please consider donating to our cause.
|
|
|
|
There are two types of donation:
|
|
|
|
1. Once-off donations
|
|
2. Regular donations
|
|
|
|
Once-off Donations
|
|
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
|
|
Once-off donations are gratefully accepted. Donations can be made via PayPal.
|
|
To send a once-off donatation to OpenLP, send an e-mail via our `contact form`_
|
|
and we will reply with the Paypal address.
|
|
|
|
Regular Donations
|
|
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
|
|
While once-off donations are nice, regular donations are much more useful to us.
|
|
They help to cover our month-to-month costs. We use `Gratipay`_ for automated
|
|
regular donations. Gratipay works on a weekly schedule, so calculate what you
|
|
want to donate on a monthly basis and basically divide it by 4. Gratipay works
|
|
through PayPal, so all you need is a PayPal account.
|
|
|
|
Set up your donation by clicking on the badge below.

Monthly Costs
|
|
^^^^^^^^^^^^^
|
|
Here's a breakdown of our regular costs:
|
|
|
|
1. $20/month for a `VPS from Linode.com`_, which we'd like to upgrade to the
|
|
next level, which will cost us $40/month.
|
|
2. $10/month for a `backup service`_, also from Linode.com.
|
|
3. $17/year for our main domain, `openlp.org`_. See `Gandi.net's pricing page`_
|
|
for information on domain name costs.
|
|
4. $35/year for our developer domain, `openlp.io`_.
|
|
|
|
This comes to roughly $8 per week. To be able to upgrade to the next level, we
|
|
will need roughly $12.50 per week.
