In line with theoretical expectations, we have identified pricing as a particularly effective policy in those sectors dominated by profit-maximizing firms
It amazing how har thes companies fight against the things are the most effective (taxes).
Beehaw uses Open Collective Europe Foundation (OCEF) as a fiscal host.
OCEF charges an 8% Host Fee on Revenue
OCEF uses the Open Collective Platform for the various functions and services it provides (like payment processing and accounting tools)
The Open Collective Platform charges a 15% Revenue Share for Fiscal Hists that collect donations through the platform.
Any tip given to the platform does not go to Beehaw at all.
This is presented in a confusing way to me. But I see after reading it twice that monthly recurring contributions are $80.82 per month (I’m assuming this is after fees that OCEF charges).
You have set a rough target of increasing that monthly recurring contributions amount to about $185 so that one off contributions aren’t being relied upon to meet monthly expenses.
This seems like a very reasonable ask and very attainable.
I’m copying a monthly donation link here for people that don’t want to scroll back up:

This is a good reminder. Thanks.
