Best funding providers

* **OpenCollective** charges 10% per payment and an additional 5% for Credit card payments.
* **Liberapay** is [free of charge](https://liberapay.com/about/faq#fees), but you incur fees for the payment processor you choose: 3% for Stripe and 5% for PayPal
* **Paypal** [appears to be free of charge for receiving money](https://www.paypal.com/uk/webapps/mpp/paypal-fees#statement-4) while they impose 5% (within certain limits) for sending money internationally.
* **Github sponsors** is probably the best deal, as they [don't charge any fees for private sponsors](https://docs.github.com/en/sponsors/sponsoring-open-source-contributors/about-sponsorships-fees-and-taxes)
* **Patreon** [charges](https://support.patreon.com/hc/en-us/articles/11111747095181) 8% per payment plus potentially 3-6% processing fee
