GitHub Sponsors allows for one-time donations (using the buttons next to "Select a

payment via credit carts without any fees. Billing via PayPal is available as well, with

less fees than a direct PayPal transaction.

Is it possible to contribute via a one-time donation instead?::
|
||||
If you prefer a one-time donation, there are various possibilities:
|
||||
+
|
||||
- Select a tier which covers the total amount you'd like to donate (note that
|
||||
payments are prorated based on the current date). After the payment is
|
||||
processed, cancel your GitHub sponsors subscription again. This has a big
|
||||
benefit: There are no fees deducted from your amount.
|
||||
+
|
||||
- Sign up for a lower recurring donation instead.
|
||||
+
|
||||
- Do so via the https://github.com/qutebrowser/qutebrowser#donating[existing
|
||||
donation methods]. Rewards (shirts/stickers/swag) are handled on a
|
||||
case-by-case basis as GitHub's matching fund isn't applicable and there might
|

be relatively high fees which make this tricky.

- If you want to contribute via a one-time donation and want to make sure
|

you'll receive a reward, you might want to sign up to the
|

https://lists.schokokeks.org/mailman/listinfo.cgi/qutebrowser-announce[qutebrowser-announce]
|
||||
mailinglist and wait until there is an official way to do so. It's planned to
|
||||
set this up at a later date. Note that the thresholds for perks will be
|
||||
higher because those donations aren't matched by GitHub and fees are
|
||||
relatively high.
|
||||
Yes! GitHub Sponsors allows for one-time donations (including custom amounts) using
|
||||
the buttons next to "Select a tier". Alternatively, see the
|
||||
https://github.com/qutebrowser/qutebrowser#donating[readme] for other donation
|
||||
methods, but note that physical rewards (stickers/shirts) for such donations are
|
||||
handled on a case-by-case basis due to the higher administrative overhead and fees.
|
||||
|
||||
I'd like a certain reward (e.g. a t-shirt) but I'd prefer making a smaller monthly donation. Can I upgrade via a one-time donation?::
|
||||
It's planned to set up a donation page to allow this at a later date.
|
||||
However, the thresholds for perks will be higher because those donations
|
||||
aren't matched by GitHub and fees are relatively high. Note that you can
|
||||
switch tiers on GitHub sponsors at any time.
|
||||
GitHub allows for one-time donations (see the previous question). For physical
|
||||
rewards, your total contributions will be summed up, so you can indeed make a
|
||||
one-time donation to "upgrade". Before rewards are ordered, all sponsors will be
|
||||
contacted with their total donation amount so that they can still upgrade, if
|
||||
desired.

|

Can I select my own amount rather than using the predefined tiers?::
|
||||
Unfortunately, GitHub sponsors doesn't support this at the moment. The
|
||||
existing tiers should hopefully cover various options. If you disagree,
|
||||
please mailto:mail@qutebrowser.org[get in touch] - I might be able to add a
|
||||
new sponsorship tier.
|
||||
At the bottom of the tier list, GitHub allows specifying a custom donation amount.
|
||||
|
||||
When will rewards be shipped?::
|
||||
Rewards will be ordered and subsequently shipped once it's clear how many
|
||||
people are eliglible. The cut-off date for the donation goals is May
|
||||
2020, so rewards will likely be shipped Q2/2020. This also applies to tiers
|
||||
which make you eliglible for a certain perk immediately, though stickers
|

might be shipped earlier depending on how many people this affects.

Due to COVID-19, the Swiss Post currently

https://service.post.ch/vgkklp/info/informationen/Verkehrseinschraenkungen?lang=en[only

accepts priority letters for many countries], including the US. Especially for the
|

t-shirts, the difference between economy and priority shipments is quite
|

significant. For the shirts, I estimate I'd spend a total of $250 to $1500 on
|
||||
*extra* postage. Thus, shipping is currently on hold until the shipping situation
|
||||
resolves. There's currently no ETA for that happening, but rest assured everyone
|

will be notified (if contact details are available) once there are news.
